My report on Beijing
Hi! I’m Kangkang.My granny has lived in Beijing for more than forty years.She has seen the changes in Beijing herself.
In the 1960s, the roads were narrow and there weren’t many ting roads.The living conditions in the city were poor.Usually, a big family were crowded in a small house.Many families couldn’t get enough food and only a few children had the chance to receive a good education.Life was so hard that people had no time or money to enjoy leisure activities.People kept in touch with their friends and relatives far away mainly by letter or telegram.
China has developed rapidly since the reform and opening-up.More and more ring roads have appeared and buildings in Beijing are becoming taller and brighter.People’s living conditions have improved a lot.And there are more kinds of food and clothes to choose from.People can enjoy more sorts of leisure activities.Children can study not only in modern schools but also on the internet.What’s more, communications are becoming easier and quicker—people can use telephones, cellphones, fax machines, the internet, and so on.
Beijing has made rapid progre and it has already succeeded in hosting the 2008 Olympic Games.I think it is important to remember the past, live in the present and dream about the future.
