When I was a little girl, my family lived in the countryside. There was a beautiful river near my home. The water was clean and cool. I liked to go fishing there with my mother. We would catch fish, look for clams(蛤)and play in the water. There were also a lot of birds near the river. We would spend all day watching the birds.
Now my family live in the city. Last Sunday, my daughter asked me to take her to see the river I was always talking about. "I want to go fishing there so much with you and Grandma," she said.
When we went to the river, we only saw a factory and a mountain of waste. My mother was surprised, my daughter was disappointed, and I was sad. The river was my best friend. I grew up with it. Now there are no fish in it, and the birds have gone too. I hear them crying for help. But what can I do?
