Mr Zhang talks about his life in the past and now.
I'm sixty years old now. Over the years, there are many changes in my life. I feel lucky and happy about these changes.
When I was young, I lived in a small house with my family. I usually went to different places on foot or by bike. Sometimes I took a bus or a coach (长途汽车). I did not have many ways to have fun in my spare time. I read books and watched black-and-white TV at home.
Now my life is better. I live in a flat (公寓房) in a tall building. The rooms are big and bright. I can take the metro when I travel in the city. I take a plane or a high-speed train when I go to other cities. In my free time, I can do a lot of interesting things. I read e-books, go to the cinema and play games on my smartphone. I also take online classes to learn how to make short videos.
