五、阅读短文，回答问题
I used to live in a small town with trees all around. It has been about thirty years since I left my hometown. But I still clearly remember what it was like. And I often "see" it in many of my dreams. My hometown is a beautiful place. It stands beside a wide river and is rich in fish and rice.
But it was a poor little town in the old days. Many people made a living by farming. They lived a hard life. There was no tall building and the only street was narrow. But trees and flowers made the town beautiful. Just outside the town, there was a river. You could see different kinds of fish swimming in the clear water. People here also lived a simple life.
Since the government made a new policy(政策)，great changes have taken place there. The streets have been widened. Factories, schools, hospitals and theatres have been built one after another. People's lives have greatly improved. You can see tall buildings, big department stores and factories everywhere. Different kinds of cars and buses are running in the wide streets.
But with the development of the industry, air pollution and water pollution are becoming more and more serious. We should try our best to make our lives better. At the same time, we must do something to stop pollution.
