When I was very young, people in our village lived by planting fruit trees. My grandmother always took me to the orchard (果园) on the hill. At that time, they had to carry water from the river at the foot of the hill to halfway up the hill. Even though we worked so hard, the production (产量) level of fruit was still low because it was short of water there.
One day, two young men led a group of workers to our village. They learned about the difficulties we faced, and later, canals (渠) and other projects began to be built in my village. “Who are they ” I asked. “They are good men from our government,” my grandma replied.
Shortly afterwards, I moved to another city for my junior high school. The only reason I ever came back to my hometown was my grandmother.
One day, my family and I made time to return. We were surprised because everything had changed. The canal ran past every orchard so villagers didn’t have to go up and down the hill anymore. The river was now so clean that fish swam happily in it. When we arrived home, my grandma took out some fresh pears and apples. She told us that after the water conservation project (水利工程) was completed, a policy (政策) was made to encourage more people to increase (增加) the fruit production with clean water in the river.
Thank those good men who have devoted themselves to the development of our countryside.

六、范文
I have changed a lot!
Time goes by. Three years has passed. Of course I have changed a lot. Let me show you my changes.
I used to be really short and thin. I used to be shy and quiet. I was always silent in class. But now I have changed a lot. One of my most important changes is that I have become more outgoing. What made me change a lot I remember when I was in Grade Eight, there was an English speech contest in our school. I wanted to take part in it, but I was afraid of it. Our English teacher, Mr. Wang encouraged me to take part in it. He guided me a lot, and I practiced a lot every day. Finally, I won the first prize in the speech contest.
I felt very proud and happy. Since then, I have become more outgoing.
作文点评: 这篇习作运用了“三步”法进行写作。文章开头总写变化, 引出话题→通过一件事详细描述了作者自己性格变化的经历→抒发情感。文章开头部分简洁明了, go by, pass, change a lot 等显示出作者遣词造句的功底; 主体部分先说明作者过去的性格特征; 然后通过一件事讲述自己发生了巨大的变化。在描述过程中, 长短句结合, 连词的使用, 使文章连贯通顺, 读起来朗朗上口; 文章结尾处用proud, happy, more outgoing 表达了作者自信的心情。
添彩点: 文中画线部分为本文添彩点。
