Answer 1

One possible version:
During the Spring Festival, I, together with my parents, went to the mountain village where my grandparents live. It is five years since I last went there. Great changes have taken place in the past five years. It is far better than I expected.
Hardly had I got off the bus when a high water tower came into my eyes. Now every family can drink fresh running water. Villagers no longer use firewood for cooking. Marsh gas, a new cheap clean energy, makes it very convenient to cook and light. All families have color TV sets. Their pastimes are enjoyable and colorful. What impressed me most was that the best building in the village is the school, where all children can receive good education.
I was greatly shocked to have seen all the changes in the countryside. I believe they’ll make even greater achievement with the new countryside policy.
