My grandparents moved to a new neighbourhood last month. The new neighbourhood is very good for people’s life.
There is a big park on the right of the neighbourhood. After dinner, people often come to the park to have a rest. When you go into the park, on the right of the square, you can see some old women dance to the music. There is a long river and a swimming pool in the park. You can boat or swim there. On the left of the neighbourhood, there is a sports club. Some children can play Taiquandao and dance in it. Some adults（成年人） can also take all kinds of activities, such as running, going cycling and doing yoga（瑜伽）.
Inside the house, people can have a bath easily. They can use hot water at any time. Why? Because there is something special on the top of the building. They can use the solar energy（太阳能）to get hot water for people to have a bath or cook. The building is always cool in summer and warm in winter. People here don’t use the electric fan （电扇）or the air condition（空调）inside it.
Now our country is asking people to save energy（能量）. This neighbouhood is a perfect neighbourhood for all the people in China.

Once we were at my grandparents’ house during Thanksgiving and we went to the store to buy a turkey, but they didn’t have any, so we had to buy a live（活的）one.
