music concert

On Friday, July 9, 2010, we had an enjoyable concert at M. Steinert & Sons. It is our music class’s homework here. This concert was played by three amazing performers: flautist Chelsea Czuchra, cellist Nora Krahl and pianist Barbara Lieurance.
Because of the amazing concert, I just lost in the music for a long time. Ms. Lieurance and her partners played a perfect music which consists of piano, cello and pipe. They focused on playing songs and had a great concert for the audiences. In the concert, I observed that other audiences often waved their hands or heads with the music rhythm and closed their eyes to enjoy the beautiful music. Our classmates are all enthusiastic of the music. They always lost themselves in the melodies. Although we know little about the music style and knowledge, we feel the songs in the concert are all elegant music. We just can say a word in Chinese: the songs only in the heaven.
After the concert, we interviewed the pianist Barbara Lieurance. We have a good time with them and have a good night.

The Black Heritage Trip



In a similar lane, climbed the steep slope of the road. We visited the Black Heritage Trail, which is a path in Boston, Massachusetts, winding through the Beacon Hill neighborhood and sites important in American black history. The weather is very hot, we don't have the strength to visit. My favourite is the Phillips School, it was one of the best schools at that time and it located in the block which black people lived, but it is only accepted white students.It makes me feel very sorry. We visited the region is the highest prices in Boston, located in winding fluctuant streets, here seem a bit cold and cheerless, probably because of the weather was too hot.


Although the whole trip is very tired, but was very meaningful.

the trip to Harvard University




The field trip was my frist time visiting Harvard University. Harvard University is one of the earliest private university graduate, in order to cultivate and mainly engaged in scientific research of universities.

Fix my computer

I was bad lucky for this weekend. Because of my careless, I poured some water into my keyboard. My computer was not at all. I was very worried for my essay and some other homework in my computer. I decide to fix it right now. At first, i run to the Chinatown. I found a shop which sells computer. I came into the shop and asked for repairing. But the host said he had no idea to fix the computer like this. He told me to go to the Best buy to fix it. But the best buy was far from here, and i must take the green line. Then i had to go there with my best wishes. I went to the shop which have Best buy. Fortunitily, it can fix my computer. But it needed two weeks to fix it, i lost my heart and just buy a new computer in the shop. What a bad lucky day!

the trip to Harvard University

The field trip on last Friday was my second time visiting Harvard University. Since the last visit was so rushed and incomplete. This another chance delighted me at the beginning. We took about twenty minutes to get Harvard. Harvard University is located in Cambridge. The main campus is centered on Harvard Yard in central Cambridge and extends into the surrounding Harvard Square neighborhood. The weather was hot, and air was moist. It is seems like that day was a good day for going out. However, this kind of opportunity which visits one of the best university in the world is precious. Therefore, I encouraged myself to finish it. Luckily, this time we had a tour guide who lead us to walk around the campus and introduced those famous sights and the history and the stories of them. One of the most interesting sights is the statue of John Harvard whose one of his feet is blond. It is said that by touching the foot, people will have good luck. A misunderstanding about John Harvard is many people think he was the founder of Harvard. In fact, he is just an important figure in the history of Haward University. As most buildings on campus were built at least decades and some were even built hundreds years ago, the Engineering and Science Department is exceptionally conspicuous for it's modern architecture. It sent me and probably many other tourists that Harvard University is preserving it's particular tradition and characteristic through past hundreds of years and at the same time, it is also a place in which inspiration and innovation take place.

Trip to Harvard

This week, we went to the Harvard University. This university is so great that almost every student knows it. When I was in China, I dreamed of studying in this university. This trip gave me a chance to see how the Harvard really looks like. My first impression of Harvard was that it is so ancient. The building looks so old and full of history. All the buildings are so old including the building where students live. I saw the Harvard library, it is a little bit different from what I saw in the picture before. It is huge and beautiful, however we are unable to go inside to have a visit because it is only available to Harvard students. What a pity. Then we saw a church in the Harvard university, where the graduate ceremony usually hold. It is so beautiful. All the windows are colorful and there a re some pictures on it. That impressed me a lot. This trip was interesting, I got a chance to be famillar with the greatest university in the world. I like this trip.

Harvard University



Last Friday, I visited Harvard University which is the oldest institution of higher learning in the United States.


Harvard University is located in Cambridge. The main campus is centered on Harvard Yard in central Cambridge and extends into the surrounding Harvard Square neighborhood. All of the schools of Harvard University are very famous. Many famous people graduated from Harvard including some Chinese preeminent writers, educators and revolutionists. Furthermore, eight presidents of the United States were graduates of Harvard.


When I walked on campus of Harvard University, old and classical buildings attracted me. There was a strong learning atmosphere on campus. The most impressive place to me was the Harvard University Library. The building of Harvard University Library was huge and grand. It was the fifth largest collection in the world. I hope that I can have another chance to go into later. Moreover, I visited the bronze sculpture of John Harvard. John Harvard was an English pastor and first benefactor of the college that was named Harvard College in his honor. And I touched his shoes. It is said that touching his shoes would bring good luck in learning.


When I was a little girl, I had heard Harvard University. It was the first foreign university that I heard. Harvard University is influential to the United States and the whole world. Although it was very hot last Friday, I really enjoyed the trip.
