Dear motherland,
Happy birthday! You are turning 70! What wonderful it is!
Over the past 70 years, many great changes have took place. My grandpa often tells me that in the past, life is hard. Every person was allowed to buy only 250 grams of meat per month. Today, we can buy whatever we want and eat as many meat as we like. Our history teacher told us how Pudong was full of farm fields in the 1980s. Today, Pudong has world’s second-tallest building. People have more way to spend their weekends. They can go shopping, watching movies with friends or take a walk in a park.
The older generation worked hard to make the changes to happen. The future belongs to us younger generation. I believe they can make you stronger!
Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua
