(1 minute preparation)
Good afternoon, everyone. Today, I would like to talk about my hometown and what it means to me.
(2 minutes speech)
I come from a small village in the countryside named XYZ, which is located in the northern part of my country. I have lived there for most of my life, and it is a place that is very close to my heart.
The village is surrounded by lush green fields and rolling hills, and it is a very picturesque place. The air is clean and fresh, and the sound of the chirping birds in the morning is a delightful experience.
Tourists love to visit our village, especially during the harvest season when the fields are golden and ripe. They come to see the farmers working and to taste the local produce, such as fresh fruits, vegetables, and homemade cheeses.
In my opinion, my hometown is an excellent place to live in. The people are friendly, and the pace of life is slow and peaceful. There are not many amenities like shopping malls or cinemas, but we have everything we need to live a simple and happy life.
In conclusion, I believe that our countryside is a treasure that we should cherish and protect. It is a place where we can connect with nature and appreciate its beauty. I feel fortunate to have grown up in such a lovely place, and I hope that our next generation will continue to enjoy and appreciate our countryside as much as I do. Thank you.
