Last summer, I went on the trip to Qingdao, where I stayed for seven days and enjoyed myself. Before leave Qingdao, I went fishing on a beautiful lake. Unlucky, I didn’t catch any fishes, and I got boring. I decided to go swimming. When I stood up, my wallet with all my money fell into the water. I jump into the deep lake to look for it, so I found nothing. The next morning, I wasn’t able to leave the hotel because of I had no money to pay for anything. I had no alternative but call my parents and asked for help. They sent myself some money by WeChat. How an embarrassing trip!

Last Saturday, eighty students from our school pay a visit to Ningxia Science and Technology Museum.
The museum, which main task is to spread the necessary knowledge of science and technology, covers area of 15,000 square meters. The moment when we entered the museum, the exhibition caught their attention. In the museum, we saw the latest progresses in science and technology. Moreover, we did an amazed scientific experiment by ourselves. What appealed for us most was the 4D film which made us feel we were in real events.
Though the visiting time was slight short, we gained a lot. It is so an instructive activity that we hope more will be organized in the future.
