A Visit of Nanjing Museum











I went to Nanjing museum on 3.14 with Sherry, Penny and 10F students. I chose this museum to visit because it free to people and it is the biggest museum in the Nanjing, the third big museum in the country
The museum has two floors. The first floor has Folk Art, Ancient Bronze, Ming and Qing porcelain, Lecture Room, Ancient Treasure, Ancient Chinese Earthen Ware, Guan Zhi Tang Café and Courtyard. The second floor has Modern Art Hall, Calligraphy and Painting Hall, Fabric and Embroidery Hall, Ancient Chinese Jade, Ancient Chinese Lacquer. The kinds of exhibit are very integrity. I like Fabric and Embroidery Hall most.
Chinese invents silkworm raising, filature and silk-weaving firstly in the world. The embroidery is not only the pure solid thing but also the valued artwork now, holding the important status in the Chinese art history.
My favorite exhibit is a big loom which was made in Ming dynasty. It is long 5.6m, width1.4m and 4m high. I think it is very big. It has 14000 cotton threads on it. It is unique in the world. Up to the present, no machinery can fill in it.
I like this exhibition, it was very interesting. I can learn lots of knowledge about anciently, I can know Chinese antiquity people’s wisdom. Cloud Brocade appears nearly 1600 years Chinese culture, it can cause us have more ideals about art and it let me know the development of the Chinese art, it can bring up the ardor of us to create more beautiful life and improve my taste ability. I love this museum.

A Meal with My Friend




I went to TACOS, a Mexico restaurant with my friend Cindy, who is in Class 10F, to have lunch on March 8th. This restaurant is on the Zhujiang Road. We arrived there at about 12:00 a.m.
I have ever eaten there with Grade12 students, and I felt the food there were delicious. Therefore, I still chose this restaurant. The food on the menu appealed to me a lot. While it was hard to make a decision of what to eat, I wanted to eat something different from the last time I went there. Finally I ordered some sausage rolls, a glass of juice and some other Mexican special dishes, which looked like Chinese battercake with beef and flavorings between different layers. All the food tasted hot, and I like this kind of food because it can make me have a good stomach. The food I usually eat taste mild, but the Mexican food have a strong taste, I think this is the big difference between them.
There were many foreigners and businessmen eating there that day. They chatted with each other so the atmosphere there was noisy. It played some soft music in the restaurant, however, you can feel relax and comfortable. The food in the restaurant are very healthy, and all the dishes were very clean. I didn’t need to worry about it. The service was good in the restaurant, and all the waiters and waitresses were very polite to us. They always kept smiling on their face.
I think it is a very good restaurant so I will introduce more classmates and friends to eat there.
