参观博物馆的优秀英语作文【实用20篇】

May 12th, 2008. That’s the most mournful day for our Chinese that will

never be forgotten, because a horrible earthquake happened in Wenchuan, which

caused tens of thousands of children’s death.

On hearing the news, I felt so sorrowful. “Why was the god so cruel to

them?” I asked. They were still at the entrance of the life. They seemed like

little eagles that were willing to open their wings and hover in the sky. Maybe

they would have their brilliant future. What a great loss to our nation! I had

my deepest sympathy on the people in the disastrous area. So I donated some

money and clothes to them. And I also prayed for the dead people sincerely. I

eagerly hope that there would be no earthquakes in the future, so that we could

live a more peaceful life.

My father used to be a heavy somker.He smoked more than 20 cigarets each

day;therefore,he was the polluter wherever he went.My mother and I tried to

persuade him to give it up.He gave it up many times but each time only for a few

days or only for a few hours.

Once he declared that he would stop smoking right away under the pressure

of my mother,and he threw his cigarets into the dustbin.The effect of his

declaration lasted only for two days.Then I found him smoking again when he

thought that he was alone and no one saw him.On the fifth day of his

declaration,he smoked openly.

Last winter he got pneumonia.When he was well again,the doctor ordered him

to give up smoking.To our delight,this time he really got rid of the habit.It

seems that the doctors order is more effective than mothers scolding,my

suggestion and his own declaration.

在我踏出首都博物馆的最后一步时，不禁连想感慨：这是一个蕴含着多么璀璨文明的瑰宝呀!我很庆幸今天能与相识已久的同学们一起观光，一起分享，一起收获。好奇的来，惊喜的走。满载着无限的乐趣与满足。从一层逛到五层，映入眼帘的一切都一直在充实着一颗空虚的心。中华上下五千年的历史，在这一刻，向我展开了。

岁月流转，几十，几百，甚至是几千年的东西，今天依旧那么清晰。看似简单的，其实这些全都是让人洒尽汗水的。远处金碧辉煌，活灵活现的佛像，往近处细细斟酌，才知道这一道道的刻画有多么不容易。

看着那些古代玉器，看着那一道道形态不一的花纹，不同的形状，这具有极高的历史和艺术价值。条理不一的瓷器，各具风韵的京城旧事，开拓眼界的书房珍玩，辉煌的古都北京历史……一幅幅赞不绝口的画面在眼前出现，这是一个令人多么难以忘却的时刻呀，在博物馆里，玻璃架上的，立在地面上的，挂在墙上的，无不反应出了以前北京人的聪慧。

在这个非凡的境界里呆了三小时，感受，品味，斟酌了许多非凡的东西 。心里不禁生出了一丝羡慕，欣赏。为何上一代的人如此伟大?为何中华民族的文化如此璀璨?真希望，在将来的某一天，被称赞的是我们。品味着这一本收获，触动着笔尖，记录着这一段记忆。在千里之外，好像又听到了赞叹。

今天在学校的领导组织下，我们来到位于北京长安街沿线的首都博物馆。刚来到这个壮观的比武官时，我们的心情是无比的激动，从外观上看这个比我馆的设计是十分独特的，有一个像绿色的大钟似的东西突出来，拒收这是一个十分大的放映厅。从总体上看这个东西体现出了我们中华民族的特色。

一进入博物馆大厅，映入眼帘的是一面硕大的老北京式大牌坊，顿时一股浓浓的京味气息扑向我们。我们首先参观了“大英博物馆”，在这个馆中有272件展品是英国博物馆捐献出来的，展品出自古埃及，古希腊，古罗马等不同时期与各大洲。同时记录了不同人群和个人的多样化表现。在这次展览中有许多的展品都是举世无双的藏品，而且是首次在中国展出。如来自新西兰的毛利人战时用哨，著名画家伦勃朗的版画代表作《三个十字架》，达·芬奇的《裸体男子画像》，拉斐尔的《圣女像》等。我想这些展品的展出意味着我国与别国文化的交流。通过展出我们可以更好地了解自然，了解世界，了解我们的历史。 当然看完大英博物馆的展出，让我不得不向一个问题，为什么要“侵略”别国的文化?如果少一些侵略和掠夺，每一个国家都可以完好的把持各国的文化，在以后各国的交往中，可以享受一下各国的文化历史的特点。还有在以后的交往中就会少一些纠纷!

中午午饭过后，我们来到首都博物馆的其他展馆。这个展馆一共有五层，每一层都据有各自的特点，而且体现出了我们中华明祖的特点与风采。二层的展区主要是一些历史事件及一些关于历史事件的产品，在这一层，我们找到了许多关于历史课上的指示，通过兰立体电影与详细地介绍，让我们对历史这一学科更加得感兴趣，而且知识也掌握得更加牢靠。同时也知道了在新中国成立前，我国的几个重要转折点的实践与电表的人物，通过这一层参观让我更加的热爱祖国，而且有一种想为祖国献出自己全部力量的决心。而第三层则是我国的建筑，进入展馆，我们可以看见许多的古建筑的模型和一些门上的装饰品，在这里我了解到我们北京的几个“门”的分布及名称。通过我们对“门”和建筑装饰的了解我们可以更好地看出，我国古代人的生活气息及生活习惯。才可以养成更好的生活习惯，提高自己的生活质量。

而四层则是以宗教为主，大多数是以宗教为主，大多数则为佛像的展出，这些佛像显得十分的庄重，而且具有神圣的感觉，每个国家的佛像都是不同的，都具有各国的特点。从中我们可以了解到，以前的人们拜宗教的程度以及信仰与爱好。以便于我们以后的学习和研究。

最具有民族气息的就是五楼的展出，在这里我们可以找到许多的旧式玩意，如“七巧板，抖空竹，抓周盘”等，这些都是老北京的特色玩意儿，而且还有描绘，嫁娶的展馆。真是京味十足呀!让我们感觉到了老北京人的热情与热闹。而且通过这些东西的展出让我们知道了许多北京的习俗，和国粹“京剧”的历史!

总体来说，这次的首都博物馆只有是有意义的，有必要的。因为通过参观我学习到了许多历史知识，还看到了世界闻名，让我了解了许多历史事实的真相，认识了自然。了解到了老北京是如此的热闹与好玩。这让我更加的热爱学习，热爱历史，热爱自然。热爱祖国!

Nowadays, an increasing number of people are willing to serve as volunteers

especially the university students in that they consider that volunteering is

not only a great contribution to our society and those who are in need, but also

improves themselves in many aspects.

For one thing, there is no doubt that volunteering makes contribution to

our society and people in need. The volunteers provide their assistance without

requiring any financial rewards. Their contributions have a great impact on

harmony society contribution.

For another, serving as a volunteer is also beneficial to the volunteers

themselves. They can improve their communication skills when providing help for

others. One of the examples is that the university students who serve in Canton

Fair will get a great chance to practical their English and get in touch with

different kinds of people as well as broad their horizon. In addition, by

serving as different kinds of volunteers, they are easier to understand

themselves and know in which fields they are interested.

In a word, volunteering has brought many benefits to our society, those who

are in need as well as the volunteers themselves. Therefore, let us enjoy the

time when serving as a volunteer.

My father likes to watch all kinds of sports, so when I spend the time with

him, we watch the match together. The Summer Olympic Games is coming soon, I

feel so excited, my father will follow the games and I will company him. It is a

great time for both of us. We share our opinion and talk like friends.

Most westerners always celebrate Christmas Day as their major festival, in

order to memorialize Jesus. During that time, they always have several days off,

so they can enjoy this festival with all their hearts. The children often get

together with their friends. The adults are busy with decorating their houses.

They also send the postcards with their best wishes to each other. In the

streets, there are so many Fathers Christmas sending presents to the passers-by.

And everything is on a discount in the supermarkets. Thus the supermarkets are

the busiest places.

In the evening, the families usually have pudding, sandwiches, apple pies

and some other desserts for dinner. After supper, the families always sing and

dance around the Christmas tree. Sometimes, they also go to church. Before going

to bed, the children often hang up their stockings beside their bed, so that

Father Christmas will fill them with presents. It is said that Father Christmas

always drives a deer to the human world and entering into each house from the

chimney. Now the children no longer believe in Father Christmas, but they still

hang up their stockings, because their parents will fill them with presents.

北宋科学家沈括曾在《梦溪笔谈》中写了这么一段话来描述陨石坠地时的场景：“……天有大声如雷，乃一火星几如月，见于东南。少时而又震一声，移著西南。又一震而坠在宜兴县民许氏园中。远近皆见，火光赫然照天，许氏藩篱皆为所焚……”相比较而言，吉林陨石坠地时的阵仗就神奇得多了。

进入吉林陨石博物馆，我们正巧赶上了讲解时间。步入展厅，迎面而来的，是一条被电子屏幕包裹着的拱顶走廊。无数星系从我们身边掠过，讲解员一一介绍着：”从我们左边飞过的是猫眼星云，右边，是蝴蝶星云……”正当我们目不暇接之际，不知不觉就来到了一个球幕电影院。从播放的影片中，我了解到了宇宙的起源和陨石的形成。原来，陨石本是在小行星带与宇宙的另一些地方四处游荡的流星，或者是大小不一的天体，当进入地球引力范围时，就会向地球靠近。有些小行星掠过地球，飞走了；但有些却直直地飞向地球，冲破大气层，坠到海洋或者陆地上。在突破大气层时，快而大的小行星会在稠密的大气的阻挡下炸裂，再撞上地表。吉林陨石，就是这样来到了我们身边。

看完影片，我们就与世界上最大的石陨石——“吉林一号陨石”，见面了。它就是从宇宙冲向地表的“行星炸弹”分离出来的碎片。可这所谓的碎片，竟然重达1770公斤！细看这陨石，只见它外表坑坑洼洼，凹凸不平，呈棕黑色，仿佛它自己就是一个被千百个陨石砸过的、饱经风霜的老星球。

“吉林一号陨石”之所以出名，不仅是因为它大，还是因为它在坠落时产生的奇迹！

我们都知道，陨石爆炸后的碎片数以百计。所以在爆炸后，碎片飞向了四面八方，形成了覆盖面积达五百多平方公里的陨石雨！可神奇的是，明明砸在了有人居住的村落，这些陨石却仿佛有“自动回避系统”，除了地表以外，没有损坏任何东西！如果说这对于百姓来说是一场惊吓，那对于科学界，就是惊喜！经过研究，陨石中含有已知矿物三十四种，地球上没有的矿物九种。这“天外来客”简直带来了人类对宇宙探索的重大突破！

拜访过“吉林一号陨石”，不由得让人感叹宇宙的神奇。一块陨石让人类对宇宙有了新的认识，如果说岩石是记录地球历史的一本“书”，那么陨石就是宇宙变迁的见证者！

This holiday is busy and happy.

This holiday is very busy. I need to do homework, review the contents of

last semester, prepare for next semesters contents, take notes, and attend

classes, and...

The vacation homework is at least two weeks to finish and a lot of

homework. Homework is seldom finished in a week, but I dont miss the time of

primary school vacation, because homework can increase knowledge and enhance the

content of last semester.

It will take two weeks to review the content of last term. Although the

content is much more than the primary school, I have learned a little faster.

Review time I dont feel boring, I feel very interesting, my old friends and I

can not only say hello but also as a detective to ferret out the last semester I

did not catch the bad guys. (the so-called bad is easily delayed)

Preview the next semesters content will last at least three weeks, because

the content of next semester is more difficult, and the effect of light is not

great. Its also digested, understood and done. But Im not annoyed that I just

think I dont know what I dont know, and I want to be as simple as making

friends with him. And cant forget him, I hope my friend can be a little

more.

In addition to the above, I also have to go to the study class, look at the

name to increase my knowledge, but also in the spare time to buy the new year.

The study time is usually about 10 hours a day. In a word, Im busy every

day.

Ah! This is the busiest holiday, and this is the tireest holiday! But this

holiday is more fulfilling than my previous holiday! More satisfied! More

happy!

今天真是个让人兴奋的日子，我们高兴地跟老师一起去参观消防队。

首先，我们被带到了第一个区域，那里有许多消防工具，消防员叔叔给我们一一进行了讲解：1.光线照明灯，它有极强的穿透作用，可以让消防员第一时间发现被困人员。2.强液压剪切器，可以把钢筋剪断，有些同学上去拿了拿很重，由此可以想到消防员叔叔工作时是多么艰苦，还有无齿切割锯....之后我们参观了消防车，真是壮观，我们还坐上去感受了一番。

消防员叔叔还给我们展示他们穿救险服，才用了几秒就穿好了，我们看得目瞪口呆，夸口叫好。随后我们又参观了消防员叔叔的住处：被子叠成豆腐块，连衣柜中的衣服都特别干净整齐。

消防员叔叔还让我们亲身体验了一些简单的用具，试了水枪，喷的那么高。活动后，我们和消防员叔叔合了影。 这次活动，我学到了许多知识和在遇到火灾时的自救方法，真是给我们上了一次生动的消防课。

The passage mainly tells us the importance of protecting traditional

Chinese culture, which is challenged or facing extinction because of the

developing society and changing lifestyle. Besides, China is nationwide sparing

no efforts to do it.

The protection of national and folk culture is of great significance to

Chinese cultural diversity and also to the harmonious development between local

economic and social development. It is reported that the Guangdong government

pays special attention to protecting Chaoju(潮剧)， a local drama born in Chaozhou

in the eastern Guangdong province.

In my opinion, some measures should be taken to protect traditional culture

effectively. To start with, we should make a law to regulate the society’s

performance. Besides, we should draw more people’s attention to it, for the more

they know about the importance of culture protection, the stronger the support

we can get from the public.

In a word, it is high time for us to treasure and develop our own valuable

culture.

Chinese there are a lot of traditional culture, such as the Lantern

Festival, the Dragon Boat Festival Dragon Boat Glutinous Rice Balls to eat, to

celebrate the Mid Autumn Festival, summer egg fight...... I love most is the

beginning of the egg fight.

The day of the beginning, I invited my buddy to fight my eggs. At the

beginning of the egg, mother prepared an egg for each of us and said, "who is

the last of the eggs, who is the king of the egg!" First of all, I and Yao

Peiyu, both of us egg head to the egg, who will not let anyone, to fight each

other up. We just fight soon, they heard the click sound, there is a broken egg!

I was so surprised that I looked at my eggs, and thank God, my eggs were not

broken. It was Yao Peiyu who accidentally hit the empty head with my tip! We saw

it and laughed all the time. He bites and says, "come again!" This time, we all

put out the strength of the milk, but his strength was not big, so he was

defeated by me! Left --iao Yu--uan, although she is a girl, but not a good

deal.

All of a sudden, I came up with a good plan and a seamless plan. I used to

fight with her on the empty end and broke up in a moment. I thought to myself,

"this is the end of you. Your sharp head has been damaged. I will fight with you

with a good and sharp tip." So, I tried to wipe the egg head, and suddenly

blows, give strength to my eggs. At first, her eggs were damaged, and she was

not so big as I was, so I was easily defeated. I jumped up with joy. Mother

loudly announced, "the end of the game, Sun Yize is the king of eggs!" Now

everyone begins to eat eggs. " We eat eggs, and all the people are in the

atmosphere of joy.

The egg not only brought us happiness, but also let me understand a truth:

everything should be brain, with wisdom to win!

Each people all have own dream, so I also have their own dreams. And some

of the dreams are hard to reach, some are very simple. My dream is to fulfill

their own responsibility, maintained a kind heart and cook, these are my dream

dreams.

Actually fulfill their duties and keep a good heart is not so easy to

accomplish, it needs to refrain from anywhere at any time, dont temper tantrum,

do their duty. In addition as a cook, you have to have a calm heart, because as

long as the dry dry floating, how can cook delicious? Alas! Dream is very

difficult to achieve! So I want to use any way to achieve your dream? First to

fulfill their responsibility must be very respectful to parents, teachers, we

also small friends want to have mercy heart, must be kind to everyone, to

serious about anything. Namely: "for the respect for the kind; for a person with

and; to is true". As for the current clinical chef is to craft a good, dont

often dry fast, but well done and so on. As long as do this way, I believe that

there must be a may achieve!

Dreams must depend on oneself, others cant help you, also may not have

spirit to help you. So all things must oneself to do, by himself. I hope my

dream will realize, I more hope you desire can be achieved.

向日葵不仅给我们带来了美，而且提供了好吃的葵花籽。

这个周末，我们一家三口来到了首都博物馆，令我印象最深的是“江山如画”这个展览。

进入展厅，一幅幅画卷吸引了我们的目光。《江天楼阁》、《策杖观云》、《高山烟雨》、《松室读书》、《湘潭云暮》等画面栩栩如生。

而三层的《长江万里图》更是让我难以忘怀，画卷一开始，长江以雄伟的气势向我们奔来，滔滔江水向东流去，看画卷上远处的绿水青山；近处的亭台楼阁；天上的飞鸟，水中行走的客船，好一个人间天堂！

这幅画卷没有过多的那种颜色渲染，只有青、绿、红、棕这几种颜色，余下的是用浓墨、淡墨画出来的。

如果你低下头仔细看，会看到船的线条是那么细，这是古人用极细的毛笔画出来的，也叫工笔，这幅画可谓之镇馆之宝。

看完整个展厅后，我们都为之惊叹！古人的画是如此的精美，还保存的如此完好，令现代人也甘拜下风。这真是“江山如画，一时多少豪杰！”

放暑假第二天，我和姥姥一块儿参观了河南省博物馆，这是我第二次参观此馆。第一次是前三年的暑假，因年龄小知识少，参观后印象不深。随着年龄的增长，我对博物馆求知欲望越来越强烈，非常期待这次参观。

来到坐落在郑州市农业路中段的河南省博物馆，它占地约10余万平方米，面积7。8万平方米，主体展馆呈金字塔型与大门相对，气势宏伟，造型古朴典雅。

河南省博物馆在民国时期1927年建立。当时政局动荡不定，加之日寇外来入侵践踏中原，馆中文物随着战乱颠沛流离，使不少文物散落丢失。国民党逃到台湾，又携走了大量的文物，使中原文物受到了极大的损失。新中国成立以后。由于党和政府高度重视保护文物，又对出土文物采取了大量的保护措施，让博物馆重振雄风，跻身国家级博物馆的地位。

走进了展厅，犹如穿越了历史时空，拉近了了解厚重中原历史和文化的距离。

首先看到了迄今50万年前的南召猿人的牙齿化石，这与北京猿人是同一时代，说明河南开拓了人类进化和文明的先河。其次，河南发现了新石器时代文化遗址2000多处。距今9000至4000年，裴李岗文化、仰韶文化、龙山文化，这些文物和遗址都证明了中原文化是华夏文明的重要发源地。

中国文字源在甲骨，出自殷墟；中国哲学源于周易成于老子；中国姓氏源于炎黄，根在中原；中国国家源在夏代，都于偃师，还有十三朝古都洛阳和九朝古都开封等等，都说明了中原文化十分厚重。

馆内珍藏者17万余件奇珍异宝。展馆里摆满了远古至今的各种青铜器、陶瓷器、玉器、雕刻、字画等。青铜器中有各种图案的圆鼎，方鼎，特别是12条龙的长方形盛酒的器具，上面刻着各种兽纹和精美图案，叫人拍案叫绝，大的如水缸，小的像酒杯，是古代人用来盛水盛酒装食品的器具。最著名的是九大镇馆之宝，如：贾湖骨笛，他是我国止2014年前发现最早的能吹的乐器。妇好鸮尊、蓬鹤方壶、云纹铜禁、四神云气图、玉柄铁剑、杜岭方鼎及武曌汝窑蓝釉刻花鹅颈瓶，件件价值连成，精美绝伦。

汉代以后陶器别品大量涌现。动物、人物、用具，形态各异，形象逼真。特别是陶制院落，将陶制工艺推向高峰。三层深宅大院，大门外有看守，有马匹，两边全是厢房，有水有树，有仓储房，最后是二层望楼，家人随从几十口。从陶瓷院落看到古代贵族生活起居十分讲究，居住条件也很舒适，人与自然十分和谐。

我们还看到了汉唐以后文化的繁华，音乐、歌舞、戏曲、书法、雕刻，甚至连枕头上也雕刻着戏曲情节。市井文化也是一大亮点，市民划船、打渔、劳作、购物、休闲等等。都呈现在书画雕刻之中。

参观了河南博物馆，使我大开眼界，受益匪浅。我被中原厚重的历史文化所震撼，被我们祖先聪明才智所折服。数万件稀世珍宝，证明了商周青铜器和历代陶瓷器，犹如镶嵌在中原大地的颗颗明珠，具有较高的历史、科学、艺术价值，放射着璀璨的光华。我爱中国，我爱中原，为祖国和家乡而骄傲和自豪，我们是历史文化的传承者，要学历史，保护古物，让文明古国永葆青春。

Spring Festival is coming,I am very happy.On this winter holiday,I went to

visit my grandparents with my parents. My grandmother is very zeal.Our dinner is

very delicious.After the dinner,the people gave me money in red envelopes.I am

very happy in this family with my grandparents.

Sometimes,we go to climb the mountains.The mountain is very high.Look!There

is a clean river near the mountain.And there are some beautiful flowers,grass

and big trees.Some trees are orange trees,the others are banana trees.Oh,I am

very tired but interesting.

I am very happy on this holiday because I like Spring Festival very

much.What about you?

A good book not only brings happiness to people, but also comforts; it can

not only make you think deeply, but also enlighten you. A good book is a wise

man, a mentor, a friend, and a partner. My favorite thing is reading.

books also bring me much joy. I remember one time, my mother bought me

"Insects", the book records many insects and their habits. I couldnt put it

down, and when I got home, I picked up the book and read it with interest. When

I read the firefly insect, a beautiful scene immediately appeared in my mind: On

a summer night, I was walking in the park, and at this time, many fireflies were

flying around me. Illuminate the way forward... The more I think about it, the

more excited I am, and I read it more seriously. When I read about ants, an

insect, I couldnt help but be shocked by its unity. Together, ants can move

things that are several times heavier than them. I also feel that we must learn

from the spirit of ants. Reading and reading, I forgot the time. It wasnt until

my mother came to ask me to eat, I reluctantly put down the book and swallowed a

spit, as if swallowing wisdom into my stomach, my heart was still in the

colorful world of insects.

Gorky once said: "I am on books, like hungry people are on bread." Food

feeds only our bodies, and books feed our souls. Books can increase our

knowledge, broaden our horizons, and improve our writing skills; they can bring

us inspiration and happiness. "When the book is used, we hate less", so I think

we need to read more and read more books to make our achievements bloom like

sesame seeds.

The Dragon Boat Festival comes from the story of qu yuan, a patriotic poet qu yuan out a good idea to rich countries qiangming, but not adopted by the king, he was kicked out of the palace. Qu yuan was so angry that he jumped into the miluo river. The local fisherman learned that he rowed a boat to the miluo river to the miluo river. Later, the bamboo tube was changed to zongzi, and the boat was changed to the dragon boat to commemorate qu yuan. Our family is very impressed with qu yuan, so we celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival every year.

The traditional custom of the Dragon Boat Festival is eating zongzi. Our family has a really good zongzi -- my mother. Every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, our whole family can eat delicious dumplings. Momma always said: the rice dumplings with reeds are the most fragrant. Therefore, every year, the mother of the Dragon Boat Festival USES the leaves of the reed to make zongzi. Before making zongzi, she prepared herself: boil the leaves of the reeds in the water and wash them separately. When the reed leaves were cold, she began to make zongzi. Her first three leaf, this three leaves into a cone, then put a date first, and then put on inside glutinous rice, middle to clip a few dates, the last thread tied leaves, a rice dumplings wrapped. Her dumplings are fat and big, like the old Buddha sleeping. After the dumplings have finished, mom put them in a pressure cooker for 40 minutes, then another three or four hours to make it taste and then eat it! My mothers dumplings are very fragrant, so that when I see the zongzi, I will eat them. So, when eating zongzi, I always eat a lot!

The Dragon Boat Festival besides the need to eat zongzi, also the dragon boat!

I like watching dragon boat RACES the most, and dozens of mariners, with their OARS, struggling to make their way to the drum, beat the drum and beat the drum. "Come on, come on! The outside cheerleaders were enthusiastic, thundering and cheering, and the sailors were forced to row harder. The scene of the dragon boat race was spectacular and enthusiastic.

Eating zongzi and racing dragon boat racing, the two traditional customs jointly knit together a hot and noisy Dragon Boat Festival.

It has been deep spring now, but the weather is still comfortable. Today is weekend, three of my friends and I went to the East Lake. We met each other at 8:00 a.m. and then we started. We went there by bike. It took us forty minutes to get there. We went boating first after we got there. It was really interesting. And then we had a picnic. We prepared some meat, vegetables, corns and other food. I like picnic outdoors. It makes me realxed. We went home at about 4:00 p.m.. We had a great day today. We decided that we will go there at the summer. At that time, we can swim in the lake.

In high school, Chinese students study very hard to fight for the future

college, while in western countries, students are spending time in taking all

kinds of activities. Though students from different countries have different

ways to spend high school time, they make the decision and take charge of their

life. This is the best age to learn knowledge, their brain can remember words

and numbers quickly. For making friends, they will probably meet their lifetime

friends. During three years, besides gaining knowledge and making friends, they

grow so fast, not only in body, but also in mind. Being independent is the main

feature. They can make a lot of decisions without asking parents for help. When

they are equipped themselves with basic skill, then they can better get used to

the new environment, which is important for future life.
