Travelling to Beijing and Sydney

Travelling makes us become more interested in the world. It is also a good way to study. I still remember two trips. One is to Beijing and the other is to Sydney.

On arriving in Beijing， we paid a visit to the Palace Museum. The exhibitions were more attractive than I expected. The following day， we made our way to the National Stadium which deeply impressed me with the unique shape of a bird nest. We tried some Beijing Roast Duck on the last day because a trip to Beijing wasn’t complete without a taste of it.

I am satisfied with the trip because I experienced the local culture and it broadened my horizon.

Another time， I went to Sydney. It took us 10 hours to get there by air. On the first day， we toured around the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Although we were tired， we were attracted by its wonderful views. The next day， we watched a musical at the Sydney Opera House and it was really amazing. We ate some Australian local cuisine on the last day. I felt excited and happy during the trip because I learned a lot and enjoyed the beautiful scenery.

These trips help me know more about the world. They are the memorable trips of a lifetime.

Travelling to Beijing and Sydney

Travelling makes us become more interested in the world. It is also a good way to study. I still remember the trips to Beijing and Sydney.

On arriving in Beijing， we paid a visit to the Palace Museum. In Qianqing Palace， I saw a sundial， which was used to measure time according to the shadow of the sun. The exhibitions were more attractive than I expected. The following day， we made our way to the National Stadium which deeply impressed me with the unique shape of a bird nest. We tried some Beijing Roast Duck on the last day because a trip to Beijing wasn’t complete without a taste of it.

I am quite satisfied with the trip because I have experienced the local culture and it broadens my horizon. I am also very lucky to have an opportunity to visit and learn in Australia.

Australia is a beautiful country， rich in natural resources and cultural heritage. On the first day， we visited the Sydney Harbour Bridge. I was deeply impressed by its beauty. The following day， we watched a musical at the Sydney Opera House and it was really amazing. We tried some Australian local cuisine on the last day because a trip to Australia wasn’t complete without a taste of vegemite. In short， I had a wonderful time in Australia and learned a lot about the culture， history and natural beauty of this country. I would like to go to Australia again and explore more of its charm.

These trips help me know more about the world. They are memorable in my life.

綜合點(diǎn)評(píng)

升格文內(nèi)容更加豐富，重點(diǎn)更加突出。小作者通過(guò)細(xì)致描寫展現(xiàn)了在旅游中學(xué)習(xí)到的中外歷史文化，用重復(fù)句式“We tried ... on the last day because a trip to ... wasn’t complete without a taste of ...”流露出了青少年喜好美食的天性，流連忘返之情躍然眼前。結(jié)尾言簡(jiǎn)意賅，意義深遠(yuǎn)，不失為一篇佳作。
