Many years ago，I lived in the country with my grandparents.There was a high mountain，a river and many small ponds.On the mountain there were many trees and flowers.Around the ponds there were a lot of bamboos.By the river there was green grass.How beautiful!We，the children，liked playing games on the mountain and fishing by the ponds!What interesting activities!
Now I live in the city with my parents.We live in a tall building.My home is big and clean.It has four bedrooms，a study，two bathrooms，a kitchen and a living room.The city is noisy and dirty.The air here is not clean.And it's hotter than the country.So I always go and visit my grandparents on holidays.
I'm David.Today is December 20th.It's my sister Jane's birthday.
In the morning，my parents take us to Lucky Clothes Store first.There my mother buys a red sweater for Jane and a blue jacket for me.Then we go to the Green Bookstore.There I buy an art book for Jane.In another〔另一个〕store，my father buys a basketball for her.Jane likes playing basketball with my father after school.
In the afternoon，my parents have a birthday party for Jane at home.Jane's friends，Nick and Anna，come to the party.Nick gives Jane a nice pencil box.Anna gives her a dictionary.Jane likes them very much.We play games and eat fruits at the party.We are very happy today!
