In modern cities such as Beijing and Shanghai, we can find skyscrapers all around us. The narrow streets and the shabby small houses are disappearing out of our sight. People's living standards are getting better and better.
While we are enjoying the happiness and the convenience the new high buildings bring us, we find we are far away from nature, we are far away from our neighbors and we are becoming even more lonely. Skyscrapers make us unable to breathe fresh air, unable to enjoy the sunlight and unable to talk with our neighbors as we used to do.
In some people's eyes, skyscrapers can be regarded as a symbol of social progress, but for me, I am still longing for the small house where I spent my happy childhood.
