1. (2023八下·宁明月考) 阅读理解

My home town is a small but beautiful town. I left my home town ten years ago. Now, when I came back, I found that it changed a lot.

When I left, there were only a few small shops in my home town. Now, there is a big supermarket in the south of the town. And there are different kinds of things in it. There is also a new hotel. There was a great park there before, but people cut down all the trees. It is a pity.

In the north of the town, there was a town library. It was old and small ten years ago but it is big and beautiful now. And there are more books and magazines in it. People in my town like to go there to read. There is also a new post office just across from my old school.

In the centre of the town, there is a big change: people can't drive there, but can only walk or ride bikes. There are also more flowers and trees in the town centre, and they are so beautiful.

Another change is the number of new restaurants. There are more restaurants in my home town. There is a new Chinese restaurant in the town centre and a new Thai restaurant near my home. I like the two restaurants very much!
