In the past, most people lived in big old houses. They used to buy everything in the shop or at
the market. They read newspapers, listened to the radio and watched television for news and other
information. They kept in touch with each other mainly by writing letters or sending postcards.
But now more and more people have moved into new and clean flats. They also find it easy to
buy things online at home. They can get information on the mobile phones or computers almost at
any place and at any time. What's more, they can keep in touch with others easily by email, WeChat
or QQ.
In some ways, people in our city live better than before.
