This is my uncle's farm.（交代谁的农场） It is in a small village near Nanjing.（地理位置）It is a big farm.（大小） My uncle and aunt grow rice and corn on the farm.（庄稼） And they also have many animals there.

There are a lot of flowers on the farm. And you can hear birds singing and sheep bleating（羊叫）. There is also a small river on the farm. We can catch fish there or go skating in winter.
