Topic three: Hometown (Including traffic and pollution) Affirmative My hometown is a coastal city. It offers some of the best beaches in China. My hometown is an inland city best-known for the gentle, rolling hills surrounding it. This city is steeped in time-honored traditions. It's prosperous. There's a real sense of community. This city is well-known for its architectural heritage. The cityscape is gorgeous and there are tons of towering skyscrapers there. High-rise buildings are sprouting up all over the city. It's pretty sprawling. I enjoy the peace and quiet there. This city is like a magnet for the tourists.
