Many years ago there was a smart prince. But he never listened to his parents when they asked him to clean his room.

    One day, a princess(公主) in another country was going to hold a party. She invited all the princes from nearby countries. The prince was excited, and prepared with great care.

    However, on the day of the party, his room was so messy(凌乱的) that he couldn't find his invitation. He looked for it everywhere, but couldn't find it anywhere. So he decided to clean his room. Luckily, he found it at last.

    When he finally arrived at the party, it was over. The prince was very sad and he decided to change himself.

    Sometimes not everything was bad. The princess had not found her favourite boyfriend at the party. And later she had another party. This time the prince got everything ready. He got to the party on time, and met the princess. Soon they fell in love with each other.

You can see many dfferent monsters (怪兽) in the movie Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation. Some of them have a holiday on a big ship.

Judy is my best friend. She studies at Happy Junior High School. She always gets up early at 6:40. She usually has breakfast at about 7 o'clock. Her mother often makes her breakfast, but sometimes her mother is busy and Judy makes her own breakfast. Her first lesson starts at 8 o'clock. She is never late for school. She is good at Math and English. After school, she often plays sports with her classmates. She arrives home at 5 p.m. She finishes all her homework before supper. After supper, she does some reading. She goes to bed at 9 o'clock.

Twelve teachers and students from the University of Verona in Italy recently went to Liangnong town, Yuyao city, Zhejiang province, to do research and learn about traditional Chinese culture.

The group went to Liangnong's Intangible Cultural Heritage(非物质文化遗产) Exhibition Hall, where they learned about Yuyao's unique cultural heritage and the local ways of life and traditions.

With the help of a skilled baker, they also learned how to make Liangnong Rice Cake, a traditional local food. People in the area eat this cake during special events like the Lunar New Year, weddings, housewarming parties, and birthdays. It'a symbol of the hope for a good life.

" First, we pour the mixed rice flour into the rice cake mold(模具). Then use tools to make square holes. Next, put sweet fillings into the holes," The skilled baker carefully showed the steps of making Liangnong Rice Cake while telling the Italian teachers and students about its history and culture. The finishing touch, which the students found most interesting, was to print Chinese characters on the cake with a special tool.

"Today's experience was fantastic. We learned how to make Liangnong Rice Cake, and I really enjoyed it. This is my first time in China, and I hope to come to China more in the future," said Giordano Giada, an Italian student.

Barbara Bisetto, the head of the Chinese Department at the University of Verona and an expert on Chinese culture, said in fluent Chinese, " China has a long history and a rich and beautiful culture. This time, I also learned about Chinese manners, customs, and traditions. So for me, as someone who studies Chinese culture, it is a very special experience."

This summer camp is a project between Ningbo University and the University of Verona. By inviting Italian students to visit Liangnong, the university wants to present local culture to a bigger world and support rural revitalization(乡村振兴) with cultural strength.
