Its a shame, but I just dont have the time,” he says.Many people like Zhong Wei regard with great interest how their hometowns have changed.,Perhaps large hospitals and new roads have appeared. In many places, the government has also built new schools and sent teachers from the cities to help.“I noticed thats true of my hometown,” adds Zhong Wei. “Children have learned to read and count at my old primary school since the mid-20th century. But now the buildings are,really old. I hear they re going to build a new school there.” Zhong Wei thinks such developments are good, and he also knows that his hometown cannot always stay the same.According to Zhong Wei, however, some things will never change.,“In my hometown, there was a big old tree opposite the school. It is still there and has become quite a symbol of the place. Most of the children in my time liked to play together under that big tree, especially during the summer holidays. It was such a happy childhood.
