Before I went to high school, I lived in my hometown¹. My hometown is far away from the city, so the trees there are very green and the water there is so clear², I even³ can see the fish swimming. When the night comes, the air is cooler than the daytime⁴, people like to walk out their homes and go to a place to have a chat⁵. I like to play games with my friends, we run along⁶ the village happily⁷. When the moon comes out, the village is lighted. Unlike⁸ the city, as the air is polluted⁹ and the buildings are high, so people can’t see the moon clearly¹⁰. The stars are hanged in the sky. When I look at the sky, I could¹¹ see the moon and the stars, they are so close to me, it seems¹² that I could touch them. Night at the countryside¹³ is so wonderful.

在我上高中前，我住在家乡。我的家乡远离城市，所以那里的树很油绿，水也很清澈，我甚至能看到鱼在水中游。当夜晚到来的时候，空气比白天的凉爽，人们喜欢走出家里，到一个地方去聊天。我喜欢和朋友们玩游戏，我们沿着村子快乐地奔跑着。当月亮出来了，村子就被照亮了。不像在城市，空气被污染，加上建筑物也高，导致人们无法清楚地看到月亮。星星挂在天上。当我抬头瞭望，我能看到月亮和星星，它们离我是如此的近，就好似我能触摸到它们。乡村的夜晚是多么的美妙啊。
