In the east of China, there is a small city---Haimen. I was born there. Today, I am telling you about my hometown. Haimen is not far from Shanghai. It’s at the mouth of the Changjiang River. Haimen is a modern city. There are lots of high buildings in it. Most of us live in flats. We like to live in flats because we can be close to our friends. In the center of Haimen, there are many shops. You can buy some nice things here. Things in most shops aren’t expensive. You can pay a little money and they are yours. My hometown is a beautiful city. On each of the roads, there are some big trees and nice flowers. The roads are also very clean. They make people happy and comfortable. The seasons here are very nice. I like autumn best. It’s neither hot nor cold. A poem says “Flyer of summer come to my window to sing, then fly away. And yellow leaves of autumn, which have no songs, just fall there with a sign.” It’s very cool.I love Haimen. It’s a nice place to live. Welcome to my hometown.
在中国的东部，有一个小城市---海门。我出生在那里。今天，我要告诉你我的家乡。海门离上海不远。它在
长江口。海门是一座现代化的城市。里面有很多高楼。我们大多数人住在公寓里。住在公寓里是因为我们可以亲近。在
海门市中心，有许多商店。你可以在这里买些好东西。大多数商店的东西都不贵。你只要付一点钱，它们就是你的了。我的家乡是一个美丽的城市。在每一条路上，都有一些大树和漂亮的花。道路也很干净。它们使人们感到快乐和舒适。这里的季节很好。我最喜欢秋天。既不热也不冷。有首诗说：“夏天的飞人来到我的窗前歌唱，然后飞走了。秋天的黄叶，它们没有歌声，只是飘落在那里，带着一个标语：“天气很凉爽，我爱海门。这是一个居住的好地方。欢迎来到我的家乡。
