My Hometown
In the past, my hometown was small and quiet. There were only short old houses here and there. The roads were narrow and there weren't any big shopping malls. Life was simple, but people didn't have many places for fun.
Now my hometown is very beautiful. It is a lively modern town. There are lots of tall buildings, wide roads and big supermarkets. There is also a new beautiful park for people to walk and play. Life is much more convenient and comfortable now. I love my hometown a lot.

【分析】本题要求对比家乡过去与现在的变化，需结合提示句型完成绘画与写作。首先要梳理家乡过去和现在的不同特点：过去规模小、建筑旧、设施少、生活简单；现在现代化、建筑新、设施全、生活便利。写作时需用一般过去时描述过去，一般现在时描述现在，借助there be句型和提示的be动词句型组织内容，最后表达对家乡的情感，绘画对应文字内容即可。
【解析】1. 绘画部分：过去画低矮旧房屋、狭窄道路，无大型公共设施；现在画高楼、宽阔马路、超市、休闲公园等现代化配套设施。2. 写作部分：先总述过去家乡的状态（小而安静，旧房屋多，道路狭窄，无大型商场，生活简单）；再总述现在的状态（美丽的现代化城镇，有高楼、宽路、超市、公园，生活便利舒适）；最后表达对家乡的喜爱，注意时态正确，运用提示的句型结构。
【答案】绘画：过去画低矮旧房屋、狭窄道路；现在画高楼、宽阔马路、超市、公园等。文字：My Hometown
