五、阅读短文，回答问题
I used to live in a small town with trees all around. It has been about thirty years since I left my hometown. But I still remember what it was exactly like. And I often “see” it in many of my dreams. My hometown is
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
a beautiful place. It stands beside a wide river and is rich in fish and rice.
But in the old days it was a poor little town. Many people had no work. They lived a hard life. There was no tall building and the only street was narrow. But trees and flowers made the town beautiful. Just outside the town, there was a river. You could see different kinds of fish swimming in the clear water. People here also lived a simple（简单的）life.
Since the government made a new policy（政策）, great changes have taken place there. The streets have been widened. Factories, schools, hospitals and theatres have been built one after another. People's life has greatly improved. You can see tall buildings, big department stores and factories everywhere. Different kinds of cars and buses are running in the wide streets.
But with the development（发展）of the industry（工业）, air pollution and water pollution are becoming more and more serious. We should try our best to make it richer. At the same time, we must do something to stop pollution.
