1 I was born in a quiet village where the influence of the city is not much It is a very good place for relaxation indeed
In my village, people live very close to each another The people are very simple in thought and behavior Therefore they are friendly and helpful So, the crimes of the city are almost unknown in my village The people work together and live in peace I love them
My village is surrounded by paddy-fields and a river All these add great beauty and variety to my village scene Although I do not like growing rice, but I really like the fields It makes me have a good mood, a peace mood and a relaxed mood Living among such friendly and simple people, in such a quiet village, is indeed a real
pleasure

I live in a mountainous village My parents often tell me stories about their life in the past It’s not much like the village I can see nowadays Some villagers now live in brick houses instead of earthen ones Our houses are better equipped with electric fans and TVs Thanks to the TV, we now know more about life outside our village We don’t use oil lamps any more We have electric lights which are much brighter More villagers are using motorcycles for transport instead of riding a horse or walking We
— village children — no longer have to waik a long way and cross a stream to get to school, which is dangerous in the rainy season Now there’s a new school nearby We also have more visitors from the city They come to experience our way of life
