• Online payment(在线支付)
Twenty years ago, people usually paid with cash(现金). If you wanted to buy a train ticket, you had to go to the station. Now, with online payment apps, you can buy tickets, order food, and even pay bills on your phone. It saves time.
• Electric cars(电车)
Before 2015, most cars in cities used petrol. The air was dirty. Now, more and more people drive electric cars. They are quiet and make no smoke. For example, driving from Wuxi to Hangzhou by electric car takes about 2.5 hours, and it costs less than driving petrol cars.
• Smart homes(智能家居)
Five years ago, people had to turn on lights or air conditioners(空调)with their hands. Today, smart homes help you turn on lights, TVs, and even washing machines with your phone or voice. For example, you can say “Turn off the lights.” and the system will do it by itself.
• Community parks(社区公园)
In the past, there were not many parks in small towns. People could only play in small gardens or at home. Now, many community parks have been built. People can play in these parks.

There are many fruits and vegetables we can eat, such as apples, bananas, pears, oranges, carrots, onions, potatoes and many others. Fruits and vegetables are good for our health.
I’m Lucy. My father likes to eat everything except it can’t be eaten. That makes him healthy. My mother likes to eat vegetables and fruits. She usually eats a little meat. I like to eat meat and fruits. But I don’t like to eat vegetables. Apples are my favourite food. Some of them are red, and some of them are green. I like to eat the red ones, because they look nicer than the green ones. But my sister likes to eat green apples. Her eating habit is like my father’s.
Apples are healthy food. I believe someone who always eats apples will be healthier than someone who doesn’t like to eat apples.
