My Life
I was born in a small city in the north.
There the summer is usually relatively short
and the winter relatively long.
Southwest of the city is a river
called the Yellow River.
To the east is a high mountain.
The place where I lived was very close to the mountain.
In the spring,
I often went with friends to climb the mountain.
The spring sun was warm,
the sky was blue
and the mountain was full of green trees and green grass.
It was very quiet on the mountain
and the air was very fresh.
We always, as we climbed the mountain,
heard the birds chirping.
The chirping of each type of bird is different.
For me,
their voice is like music,
extremely pleasant to the ear.
My father and mother opened a clothing store close to home.
They mainly sold shirts, pants and skirts.
In the fall and winter seasons they also sold hats and leather shoes.
In those days my life was very simple
and also very happy.
After a few years,
my father and mother closed the clothing store.
We left our homeland
and moved to a big city in the south.
From then on,
my life environment underwent great changes,
In the city there were many tall buildings and streets.
Near my house there was a supermarket, a bank,
a subway station and a library.
There was also a beautiful park.
Gradually I became more and more accustomed to life here.
At school I also met several new friends.
Although life here was more comfortable than before
and I felt very satisfied with life here,
but sometimes I also felt a little sad.
because it had been a long time since I had been back to my homeland,
and it had been a long time since I had met my friends.
My father says that this year we are going back to our homeland to celebrate the New Year.
I am extremely happy.
I plan to bring my friends several gifts
and again go with them to climb the mountain.
