阅读下面短文,按要求完成后面各个小题。When I was very young, people in our village lived by planting fruit trees. My grandparents always took me to the orchard (果园) on the hill. At that time, they had to carry water from the river at the foot of the hill. Even though we worked so hard, we had a hard life because there was little water.
One day, two young men from our government led a group of workers to our village. They learned about the difficulties we faced, and later, canals (水渠) and other projects (项目) began to be built in my village.
Soon after that, I moved to another city for my junior high school with my parents. I hadn't been back for the last two years. One day, my family and I made time to return. We were surprised because everything had changed. The canal ran past every orchard so villagers didn't have to go up and down the hill anymore. 4. The river was so clean that fish swam happily in it. When we arrived home, my grandparents took out some fresh pears and apples. They told us that these canals encouraged more people to increase the fruit production (产量) with clean water in the river.
5. 现在我的家乡已经发生了很大变化。Looking ahead, I am filled with hope and excitement for the future.
