Last month, Li Ya had a seven-day vacation. His family planned a three-day trip to Beijing and Xi'an. They decided to go to Beijing by train first.
On the first day morning, they took a bus for a tour of Tian'anmen Square. There were many visitors there. Then they paid a visit to the Palace Museum. It was great. For lunch, they ate some vegetables, beef and rice. After lunch, they visited the Summer Palace. They took a boat ride on Kunming Lake there. It was fun. In the evening, they ate Beijing Duck in Quanjude, a very famous restaurant. It was delicious.
The next day they visited the Great Wall. When Li Ya was standing the Great Wall, he felt as if he was in ancient days. he could see many laborers (劳工) working very hard to build this wall. He wondered how they finished this extremely difficult work by hand.
On the third morning, they flew to Xi'an. They visited the Xi'an Circumvallation(西安城墙) and took quite a lot of photos there. They had mutton noodles for lunch. In the afternoon, they visited the Terracotta Army(兵马俑). Li Ya was surprised to know that each warrior of the Terracotta Army is about 1.8 meters tall, and none of them looks the same. In the evening, they enjoyed a wonderful dance show.
Last year a rainstorm came to a small village. Many houses were broken. Several people were badly hurt and taken to hospital.
A student, Kate, said, "It was terrible. I was helping my mother make breakfast when the rain started to beat heavily against the windows.
"I was eating with my family," a housewife, Jenny said. "I heard a loud noise. A few minutes later, our house fell down. We tried our best to get out. We were very afraid but safe."
Mr Green, an engineer (工程师), said that he was drinking coffee and reading a newspaper in the office when he felt that the building began to shake. He had to stay in the office. "There was no electricity (电) and I couldn't contact (联系) my family members," he said. "I was very worried about them at that time."
Volunteers were helping the people out of the village and giving food and clothes to them. They felt very tired but it was meaningful.
