An essay on the changes in Yangzhou

Yangzhou is a famous cultural city with a long history and beautiful scenery. In recent years, earth-shaking new changes have taken place in Yangzhou. Wide streets, beautiful squares and expressways extend in all directions around the city, and luxurious and beautiful residential buildings have sprung up ... The completion of Runyang Bridge and Railway Station is the icing on the cake. In the past, the ferry to Zhenjiang had to queue up, and it had to be suspended in foggy and rainstorm weather. Now, get on the bus, enjoy the flowers and trees on the street like visiting the park, and cross Runyang Bridge like Youlong, and you can reach Zhenjiang in half an hour. If you go to some distant places such as Beijing, take the train and sleep till dawn. It really saves time and money! My aunt in Beijing can go back to Yangzhou every holiday now! Not to mention these environmental changes, I will never forget the changes in the spacious Xingcheng East Road in front of my house, Laopanqiao Road. I remember when I was in the first grade, this road was like a country road, narrow and broken. Every morning and evening, many vegetable sellers occupy both sides of the road, making the narrow path more crowded. As long as a car passes by, it will be blocked. It was my parents who came to pick me up. Every time I walk here, I have to wait for more than half an hour. The rotten vegetable garbage on the ground simply makes people have no place to stand. The air is full of the smell of sewage, the bloody smell of killing chickens, and the smell of gasoline emitted by blocked motorcycles, which makes me sick and breathless; The cries of vendors and the roar of motorcycles make people impatient, and everyone's face is anxious. Every time there is a traffic jam, I eat small biscuits to block all kinds of odors with this faint fragrance. I ate one piece after another, the road was clear, and my stomach was full. So every time I go home, I have to wash my face, drink water and smell my mother's perfume. What about now? This "country road" I hate has become a straight and wide four-lane highway leading to the distance. Many beautiful flowers and trees are planted on both sides of the road. The shops along the road are in good order. There is no traffic jam every day. I walk on the road when I go to school and after school, which makes me feel relaxed and happy, saving a lot of time ...! Hometown! Our traffic is really developed! Ah! Hometown! Our environment is really beautiful! Ah! Hometown! Our life is really wonderful! Ah! Hometown! I'm proud of you! Proud of you! Let's take action, start with cherishing every grass and tree, cherish and protect her, and make our lovely hometown more beautiful!
