GO TO DINNER WITH MY PARENTS


I went to western restaurant on Feb.26.with parents. The name of the restaurant is ‘Greenery’. I chose this restaurant because the flavor of the restaurant is delicious and the chef of the restaurant has studied nutrition in Swiss. Firstly, we had soup and bread with grilled garlic and Florence oil. Secondly, we had vegetable salad .Then, I ate a steak with some particular sauce which has a flavor of vanilla. It is really amazing. Finall , I ate chocolate brownie, it was sweet and melt in my mouth when I ate it. This dinner is quite nice.
The waiters serivice is polite and fast,they change the folks and planets very quiet and keep the table always be clean.
When I was eating ,I found that there are a lot of differences between Chinese food and western food. Even though the materials are the same ,but the spice of food is quite different. I think there is not as many spices in Chinese food as in the western food. Spices can make different flavour. It is amazing. I realized that the cheese is used quite often in western food. There is cheese in the pasta ,even in the salad. Cheese can also used to make hotpot.
Different food represents different cultures. Some food style dependent on the geology, history ,religion and climate. From the food, we can learn a lot of the culture.
This restaurant environment was very nice,the music was soft and relax,and the lights was dreamly,it was all my taste,so I like there very much, I would recommend my friends to try it!

Go an exhibition with my friend







I went to an exhibition with my friend Candy this Saturday,Feb 28 , at Nanjing Museum. I chose this exhibition because I am intereted in Chinese traditional artworks. The exhibits are all about Chinese Qing Dynasty wash painting and Chinese calligraphy that were made of eight Chinese artists who are famous in Qing dynasty. The artist’s names are Shi tao, Jin nong,Zheng bian,Li chan,Huang shen,Li Fangyin,Luo Pin,Gao Xiang,Wang Shishen,
The title of the exhibition is ‘Ancient Chinese painting exhibition’. The artworks are shown about Qing Dynasty paintings. The artworks are not contemporary.The artwork ‘bamboos on the stone’ impressed me. It is a wash painting. The subject of the artwork is the bamboo. It is a bamboo which the stone is behind it.The color of this artwork is white and black.The colour of the bamboo is darker than the stones.The lines of the painting is sharp and short.
I am excited about the work. The bamboo is very thin .But it stand on the stone and looks firm without swing. It makes me think about a person who is very rigid and brave even he faces for some difficulties. I think it shows bravery of the bamboo. The bamboo in China is as a symbol of rigid. No matter the wind below the bamboo cruelly.However the bamboo can still stand straightly. The spirit of bamboo tell us if we want to do something ,never give up!It makes me think about my experience.
In the PE class, we have soccer game. I was really a terrible soccer player. I couldn’t run faster ,I couln’t catch the ball and I couldn’t kick it with a long distance. I felt depressed about this ,I didn’t want to make shame to our team. Therefore, I was running in the every evening and I asked my classmates who were good at playing soccer to teach me .At first,I couldn’t kick the ball straightly and with a lot of power. I felt sad about this.However, it is wouldn’t work if you didn’t put any effort.Thus , I didn’t give up. I took more exercise.After half a month, I got a obviously progress. I would’t lost marks for my team,even sometimes I earned marks for my team.
I like this artwork very much. Though the artwork is not colourful-only painted by black and white. I think it has many meanings. The lines of the bamboo are sharp and short. I think it represents firm. The shape of the bamboo is quite thin. It represents like a person who is suffered by difficulties and he doesn’t want to give up.Even though the stones is the setting of the picture , It is very important. It is represents the bad situation and difficulties.I think other people might appreciate the artwork. I think it is clear, it represents the idea straightforwardly .its shapes, lines are really beautiful .The subject of the artwork is really traditional and encourable.The artist of the artwork has the high respect on drawing bamboos and he is the most famous artist .
I enjoyed this exhibition and I like this exhibition very much. The painting are amazing . They totally express the Chinese traditional artworks. I am obessessed by them. This exhibition let me learnt a lot about Chinese ancient artwork. I saw a lot of wash paintings. It is a wonderful art experience for me.
