My home country is China. As you know, it is a large country, which lies in the east Asia. China has nearly all kinds of weather and geography. In the north part of China, the winter is almost half a year and it is very cold, while in the south part, the winter is very short and not so cold, and it hardly snows. China has so many interest and amazing places to visit, such as the Great Wall, the Forbidden City in Beijing, Taishan, and Huanshan, etc.
China has more than 5000 years history. The most influential four invention, compass, gunpowder, printing technique and paper-making technique has been the mark that China has one of the world's oldest civilizations. It has gone through many dynasties and experienced all steps of human developments.
Now China is a modern country. It has a population of about 130 million. Chinese is the official language, and it also has a lot of dialects. With the fast development of economics and cooperation and communication with other countries, more and more people are learning English. Children start to learn English when they enter the first grade. More and more young people are going to the US or other Countries to study or work, and at the same time, more and more people from other countries are studying or working in China.
Although I have been abroad for years, my memory for my home country is still so clear. I hope that I can do something for it some day.
