Dear_Bob，
It's_very_kind_of_you_to_write_me_and_let_me_know_about_your_beautiful_city.Now_I'd_like_to_tell_you_something_about_my_hometown_Jiangcheng.
My hometown Jiangcheng, standing on the bank of the Changjiang River, is a beautiful place for people to live in.As its economy has been developing rapidly in the past ten years, not only have new factories, houses and roads been built, but more schools and hospitals are also available for its people.However, there are still some problems, such as water and air pollution and heavy traffic in rush hours.
In my opinion, Jiangcheng should develop its economy scientifically.For the sake of our having a better hometown in future, I would also think that the growth of its population should be brought under control.
Yours，
Xiaohua
