Millie: Was pollution a problem then?
Mr Chen: Yes, it was. There was once a steel factory near the Sunshine River.
They often put the waste into the river. Later the government
realized the problem and took action to improve the situation.
Now the river is much cleaner.
Millie: Do you think life is better now?
Mr Chen: Well, in some ways it is. It's really nice to have a beautiful modern
town. However, most of my old friends have moved away. It has
become impossible for us to see each other as often as before. We
used to play cards and Chinese chess together. Now I feel a bit
lonely from time to time. Anyway, it's good to see the amazing
changes in the town.
