My hometown’s three treasures
　　Any person has his or her own personality, so does a place. My hometown, Diaobingshan, which locates in the north part of Liaoning province, has three distinctive aspects from other places.
　　It is surrounded with incessant mountains in three directions, so wind blows very fiercely day and night. Few decades ago, since the economy and technology was not so advanced, people suffered a lot from the winds, especially in spring, and also because of their humor and optimism, they created a funny saying: Winds in Diaobingshan blows only twice a year, and each time it lasts for six months. Nowadays, as the development of science and technology, citizens here began to benefit from the wind-our central government invested to set up windmill generators, which brought us a big fortune and have become a magnificent view at the same time. And these are one section of the treasures. The other two are steam trains and the coal mines. Though Diaobingshan is a new established city, it has thousands of years history actually, and the steam trains are the evidence which are really precious things in current times when high-speed rails are more popular. after they had been recorded in The Founding of Communist ***, numerous tourists came to visit the old treasures. The last part of the treasures are the coal mines in Diaobingshan, which are also very famous. People in my hometown appreciate the mines not only because they get warmth from them in winter, but also because the coals and the minds had fed us for generations. It is a universally accepted fact that Diaobingshan’s development is due to the coal mines to a large degree. We love them and we regard them as our treasures.
　　This is my hometown, the treasures here raise its people up and we will work together to make tomorrow a better day!
　　

从开头看我以为会讲家乡的性格，其实风是个很好的引子，可以把家乡人的性格和风联系起来，比如有时会火急火燎（fierce)或者比较直爽（wind has one direction)，每点再具体描写下，会是篇不错的作文。
