I live in a mountainous village. My parents often tell me stories about their life in the past. It’s not much like the village I can see nowadays. Some villagers now live in brick houses instead of earthen ones. Our houses are better equipped with electric fans and TVs. Thanks to the TV, we now know more about life outside our village. We don’t use oil lamps any more. We have electric lights which are much brighter. More villagers are using motorcycles for transport instead of riding a horse or walking. We — village children — no longer have to waik a long way and cross a stream to get to school, which is dangerous in the rainy season. Now there’s a new school nearby. We also have more visitors from the city. They come to experience our way of life.
My hometown changes so much. The first change is life of local people. They have a better life because they have electricity, TV, hospital, schools nearby the village. The second change is the peopleắ There are more people and more houses here. The houses are more modern in brick not by soil anymore. The last change is the place for children to play. There is a park in the village.
