Walking home a few days ago, I saw that people were doing reconstruction work on the old market. It would be turned into a modern shopping mall. Some people were tearing down the old gate. Some were removing the wooden stands. Some were clearing away rubbish from the floor. While all this was going on, a journalist was taking photos. The resulting story in the local newspaper divided the people of the town: some were in favour of the new shopping mall, and some were against it.

Sample:
My hometown is a small county in Jiangxi. Twenty years ago, it was just a place where you couldn’t see many buildings or cars. But now there are high buildings here and there. In the past, there were seldom busy streets and no traffic jams. But now, there are shopping malls and business streets in the downtown. It’s full of prosperity.
