题目内容：

I spent a week in Rugao, Jiangsu, a third- or four-tier（四线）city about 200 km northwest of Shanghai, participating in the 20th Asian Masters Athletics Championship, I went there with a simple expectation, other than trying to get into the finals of the 100m event for the 65—69 age group, to take some good photos of historical architecture, of a China before development wipes away its past.

We arrived at Rugao at nearly midnight and the first sight of Rugao was in the morning, from the window of Wenfeng City Hotel. There, right in front of me, were rows and rows of neatly built and good quality low-rise homes of pretty recent origin. And there were many high-rise buildings rising in the distance. The streets were landscaped and orderly and not much different from Singapore.

The basic structure of Rugao was everything a modern city would have, not a third-tier city away from the modern coastal cities. I managed to visit the villages myself and along the way the sight was of newly built farmers’ homes, built just behind the small living quarters of the past. The few remains of the past that were still standing have been rebuilt and served the owners in their bigger homes as storerooms or garages.

What really impressed me was the sight of the people of Rugao. The people were pretty well off, living in good quality homes and looking very contented with their lives. The children, the youth and the young were a pleasant surprise. They were all the stadium during the Opening Ceremony for the Asian Masters. Some were there to perform, some were there as audiences to this international events. And the unpredictable happened, the sky opened up, and everyone was wet. But the youth and children came well prepared, with a thin transparent（透明的）raincoat over their costumes and their latest fashionable wear.
