Do you Have a Sweet Tooth? A nice restaurant for dogs recently opened in San Francisco. The place serves special desserts (甜品) and drinks for the four-legged eaters. Nikko and Peach were among the restaurant's first customers. One was dressed in a nice bow tie and the other in beautiful clothes Obviously (明显的), they were ready for a tasty meal. ▲ Ashley Garner was so happy! She and her family had been looking for her missing wedding ring for two days. After Hurricane (飓风) Ian had passed, they went outside to clean up. To their surprise, the ring was lying in a brush (灌木丛) pile. Black Widow Came to Life This is a black widow (黑寡妇) spider-only a glass one. Artist Nikita Drachuk created tiny glass animals by using a very old technique (技艺). This piece of work is a good example. It shows the creature (生物) in vivid detail. Just look at its thin legs and the spots on its back. It looks like the spider is going to crawl (爬) out of the picture, doesn't it? |
John Smith is an exchange student from New York. Here is a letter to his friend in his hometown.
Dear David, How time flies! It's been 3 months since I came to China. I'm having a great time on my student exchange program here. So far, I've completely got used to the life here and have known a lot about traditional Chinese culture. I'd like to share some with you. In China, there are many different kinds of traditional art forms, such as paper cutting, Chinese clay art and so on. Among them, the kite interests me most. The first ancient Chinese kite appeared more than 2,000 years ago. Then flying kites was spread into Japan , Korea and Malaysia during the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty. Kites are regarded as the earliest craft (飞行器).They played an important role in the process of inventing the plane. Tea culture is important in China. Tea was discovered as a kind of drink by accident about 5,000 years ago. It is believed that tea was brought to Korea and Japan during the 6th and 7th centuries. It didn't appear in England until around 1660. The tea trade from China to Western countries took place in the 19th century. Now tea has become one of the most popular drinks around the world. Lastly, I'd like to tell you something about one of the traditional Chinese festivals——the Mid-Autumn Festival. It is on the fifteenth day of the eighth month in the Chinese lunar calendar (阴历).Chinese people have been celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival and enjoying moon cakes for centuries. If you'd like to know more about traditional Chinese culture, I will talk about it in the next letter. Best wishes! Yours, John |
