介紹自己家鄉的英語作文
If you could change one important thing about your hometown， what would you change？ Use reasons and specific examples to support your answer.
If I could change one thing about my hometown， I think it would be the fact that theres no sense of community here. People dont feel connected， they dont look out for each other， and they dont get to know their neighbors.
People come and go a lot here. They change jobs requently and move on. This means that they dont put down roots in the community. They dont join community organizations and theyre not willing to get involved in trying to improve the quality of life. If someone has a petition to put in a new streetlight， she has a very hard time getting a lot of people to sign.
They dont feel it has anything to do with them. They ont get involved in improving the schools because they dont think the quality of education is important to their lives. They dont see the connection between themselvesand the rest of their community.
People dont try to support others around them. They dont keep a friendly eyes on their children， or check in on older folks if they dont see them for a few days. Theyre not aware when people around them may be going through a hard time. For example， they may not know if a neighbor loses a loved one. Theres not a lot of community support for individuals.
Neighbors dont get to know each other. Again， this is because people come and go within a few years. So when neighbors go on vacation， no one is keeping an eye on their house. No one is making sure nothing suspicious is going on there， like lights in the middle of the night. When neighbors children are cutting across someones lawn on their bikes， theres no friendly way of casually mentioning the problem. People immediately act as if its a major property disagreement.
My hometown is a nice place to live in many ways， but it would be much nice if we had that sense of community.
