When I was very young,people in our village lived by planting fruit trees.My grandmother always took me to the orchard (果园) on the hill.At that time,they had to carry water from the river at the foot of the hill to halfway up the hill (半山腰).Even though they worked so hard,the production of fruit was still low because it was short of water there.
One day,two young men led a group of workers to our village.They learned about our difficulties,and later,a canal project (灌溉工程) began to be built in my village.“Who are they?” I asked.“They are good men from our government,” my grandma replied.
Then,I moved to another city for my middle school.During one summer holiday,I came back to my hometown with my parents.When we arrived there,we were astonished because everything changed.We saw the canal run through every orchard.And my grandma told us that after the canal project was completed,villagers didn’t have to go up and down the hill to carry water anymore.And more and more people started planting fruit and the production increased a lot.
Thanks to the government’s canal project,it has made the development of our countryside better.Nowadays,people work hard to live in a big city.However,we should not forget our hometown.That is where we are from.

Great changes have taken place in our lives over the past century.Here are some examples:
Firstly,people were not able to travel such a long distance in such a short time in the past.Planes were not very popular at that time because they used to be a very expensive way to travel.Nowadays,we have fast and comfortable cars,and more and more people can travel by plane.
Secondly,in the past,people had to work much harder because they did not have the tools that we have today.Today,machines do most of the difficult and dangerous work.
Thirdly,the living conditions in the past were not as good as they are now.There were no bathrooms or running water in many houses,and many people couldn’t buy the things like refrigerators,TV sets or washing machines.Now,most families have several of these things.And many families have computers,cars and so on.
Finally,nowadays,more and more people have the chance to get a good education.In the past,there were fewer schools and the quality of education was much poorer.Now people can also study on the Internet at home.
The development of science and technology in the world is amazing.Life now is much faster and busier than it used to be.And we are still creating new things to make our lives better and easier.

①Living in China has made me realize how convenient life can be.It’s much better than I ever thought.
②The moment I came to this country,a wave of pleasant surprise washed over me.The public transport system,especially in its big cities like Beijing and Shanghai,is great.The subway networks cover every part of the big cities.People can avoid the traffic jams and get to where they want to go much faster.High-speed trains that connect cities like Beijing and Shanghai in less than five hours are another example of China’s wonderful transportation system.
③Another great thing that stands out in China is the availability (可用性) of services.If my bike is broken and needs a repairman,or if I want to buy daily necessities,electronics or even medicine,I just need to make a phone call or click on my phone screen a few times.Since everything is available online,I no longer have to go far to the supermarket or store.It is one of the key reasons I’ve stayed in China for so long—something I’ve never experienced in any other country.
④What’s more,China’s convenience doesn’t only lie in the speed of services,but also in its user-friendliness.The whole system is designed with user experience in mind.For example,the apps I use for transportation or deliveries are user-friendly,even for people who are not good at technology.Everything,including payment methods,is simple and direct.It means you don’t need to spend time learning how to use the systems.This makes it easy for everyone to get things done without difficulty.
⑤The convenience in China has made me more productive and relaxed.I’m sure that with technological progress and infrastructure (基础设施) development,life in China will become even more convenient in the future.
