How I’ve Changed!
My life has changed a lot in the last few years. When I was a little child, I used to play with my friends all day long. We found that almost anything could bring fun to us. But now, I am growing up, things seem to change gradually that I don't realize.
Writing Practice
★点明时间,细节到位。

Generally speaking, things turn better. Now, I am interested in reading and writing. I think that the more good books I read, the more knowledge I get.
Writing Practice
★比较级句式运用
★过渡衔接自然
The biggest change in my life was that I began to love sports at the age of ten. This is the most important change. Because I didn’t use to play sports after school. When I was ten years old, I often fell ill. So my parents encouraged me to play sports after school. Now I’m really interested in sports and I’m much healthier.
