今天一大早，我们就乘机前往旧金山游玩。其中，令我印象最深刻的是参观英特尔博物馆。

刚一抵达博物馆一阵强烈的科学气息扑面而来，跨进大门以前那些不可思议的幻象，现在在我眼中通通变成了现实，最特别是，我居然看到了“解剖”电脑的内部，使人想起了五花八门，弯弯曲曲的九曲迷宫。

平时我们见到的电脑总是那么方便，带给人们许多益处，可有谁想过它的内部是多么复杂呢?今天我终于见识到电脑的来之不易。电脑中，最主要的就是芯片，远看芯片它像一条无边无际没有尽头的迷宫，芯片虽小，可要做出一片真难呢!

首先，得把芯片底部的铁片切好，可底部的铁片可是得用极硬的金钢丝才能砌成，在制作芯片过程中，制做人员必须得保持全身上下干干净净，因为在制作过程中，芯片内部不能沾一丝灰尘。否则，以前的功夫可就前功尽弃了!整个制作过程必须十二万分小心，而每一个零件都需精挑细选，无微不至，可想而知，一部电脑是由多少个“无微不至”组成的呀!

虽要制造出一台电脑十分艰难，但世界的精英们，就是在这种高难度的情况下磨练而成的。只要努力，其实生活、世界也可以由自己创造。今天我以人类为骄傲，明天人类以我为自豪。

before the 1850s, the united states had a number of small colleges, most of them dating from colonial days. they were small, church connected institutions whose primary concern was to shape the moral character of their students.

throughout europe, institutions of higher learning had developed, bearing the ancient name of university. in german university was concerned primarily with creating and spreading knowledge, not morals. between mid-century and the end of the 1800s, more than nine thousand young americans, dissatisfied with their training at home, went to germany for advanced study. some of them return to become presidents of venerable colleges-----harvard, yale, columbia---and transform them into modern universities. the new presidents broke all ties with the churches and brought in a new kind of faculty.

professors were hired for their knowledge of a subject, not because they were of the proper faith and had a strong arm for disciplining students. the new principle was that a university was to create knowledge as well as pass it on, and this called for a faculty composed of teacher-scholars. drilling and learning by rote were replaced by the german method of lecturing, in which the professors own research was presented in class. graduate training leading to the ph.d., an ancient german degree signifying the highest level of advanced scholarly attainment, was introduced. with the establishment of the seminar system, graduate student learned to question, analyze, and conduct their own research.

at the same time, the new university greatly epanded in size and course offerings, breaking completely out of the old, constricted curriculum of mathematics, classics, rhetoric, and music. the president of harvard pioneered the elective system, by which students were able to choose their own course of study. the notion of major fields of study emerged. the new goal was to make the university relevant to the real pursuits of the world. paying close heed to the practical needs of society, the new universities trained men and women to work at its tasks, with engazuowenng students being the most characteristic of the new regime. students were also trained as economists, architects, agriculturalists, social welfare workers, and teachers.

Spotlight on St.Petersburg

St.Petersburg.The very name brings to mind some of Russias greatest poets,writers and composers:Pushkin,Dostoevsky,Tchaikovsky.The 19th century was a golden age for St.Petersburgs wealthy classes.It was a world of ballets and balls,of art and literature,of tea and caviar.

圣彼得堡,只要提到这个名字就让人想起那些俄国最伟大的诗人、作家以及作曲家：普希金、杜斯妥也夫斯基、柴可夫斯基.十九世纪对圣彼得堡的富有阶级来说是段黄金岁月.那是一个充满了芭蕾舞和舞会、艺术和文学、茶和鱼子酱的世界.

The golden age ended with the advent of World War 1.Working people were growing more and more discontented.In 1917,Communism came,promising peace and prosperity.

这段黄金岁月因为第一次世界大战的来临而结束.工人阶级的不满愈来愈高涨.1917年时,共产党来了并向人民保证和平与繁荣.

St.Petersburg had become Petrograd in 1914.People wanted a Russian name for their city.Ten years later,the citys name changed again,this time to Leningrad.Then in 1991,Leningraders voted to restore the citys original name.Some people opposed the name change altogether.Others thought it was just too soon.Old,run-down Soviet Leningrad,they said,was not the St.Petersburg of 19th-century literature.

圣彼得堡在1914年变成彼得格勒.人们想为这个城市取个俄国名字.十年之后,这个城市的名字又改了,这一次叫做列宁格勒.然后在1991年,列宁格勒的居民投票恢复了此城最初的名字.有些人彻底反对改名字,有些人认为名字改得太快了.他们说老旧的苏维埃列宁格勒已不再是十九世纪的圣彼得堡了.

American culture, in a sense, is an extension of European culture, because the language of the Americans, demographic composition and her spirit of the foundation are from Europe. On the other hand, American culture with Europe, because European immigrants in the North American continent to drive away after taking the Indians, in a barren wilderness land to create a stunning is the splendid civilization. Therefore, in the United States talk about cultural practices and social propriety, it is necessary to take account of the same culture of Europe and the United States, but also pay attention to both of the opposite sex. Cultural practices is a wide scope and complexity of the topic, people involved in social life and relations In all aspects.

Of tolerance.

The United States is a country of immigrants, the ancestors from around the world. People emigrated to the United States, not only in the location to move on, but also in their country and customs of the council to a new place of residence. As miscellaneous, people their differences very obvious because the differences are very common, people do not particularly pay attention to unity. In time, the cultural practices of the Americans formed a higher level of tolerance (tolerance), the different cultures and different appraisals on tolerance, an acceptable attitude. At this point, the U.S. society feasible than the custom of other countries in the world more broadly.

From a political perspective, this tolerance of performance in the pursuit of freedom and the right to freedom of maintenance. From the religious that it reflected in the harmonious coexistence of different faiths. From the viewpoint of life, and it appeared in different communities, different ethnic communities live in peace. In a nutshell, in the United States, each person can basically arbitrary choice of different ideas, beliefs, traditions and customs and way of life; people can also keep a considerable extent, their customs and instrument. For example, Jews can celebrate their religious festivals, and Christians are to their Christmas and Easter. For example, again, the United States by Chinese in Chinatown Chinese live and work; the same token, the Vietnamese immigrants in their "little Saigon" according to Vietnams way of doing business and engaged in various activities.

Americans of tolerance, in addition to the above United States is a country that factors other than immigration, and the frequent movement of the Americans. As everyone knows, the history of the United States in the development of an important part of her history of the development of the western region. At that time, the United States Blazers or hiking, horseback or car, from east to west, from north to south, wherever there are opportunities, there Jiuwang resettlement. The frequent migration and continuous replacement of the Habitat so that people will always be in the "mobile", and the occasional different facing the phenomenon of tolerance and more easily accepted. Moreover, the current migration also can help people expand the field of vision, known more widely know, the different practices with sympathy, understanding, and gradually formed diversity rather than uniformity of the openness of the concept.

As the Americans tolerant of stronger, so very few Americans to impose its will on other people, with China Confucius "by the others do not want to, not to impose on" the very Guxun like. For example, a husband may be a Republican, but he must not support the Democratic Party forced his wife to change political stance. Similarly, perhaps the mother is a Catholic, but she must not have forced her into a Muslim convert son to change religion. In their daily lives and habits of business in normal times, this spirit of tolerance is a common occurrence, commonplace.

The Culture of the United States is a Western culture, and has been developing since long before the United States became a country. Today the United States is a diverse and multi-cultural nation.

The types of food served at home vary greatly and depend upon the region of the country and the familys own cultural heritage. Recent immigrants tend to eat food similar to that of their country of origin, and Americanized versions of these cultural foods, such as American Chinese cuisine or Italian-American cuisine often eventually appear. German cuisine also had a profound impact on American cuisine, especially the mid-western cuisine, with potatoes and meat being the most iconic ingredients in both cuisines.Dishes such as the hamburger, pot roast, baked ham and hot dogs are examples of American dishes derived from German cuisine

The primary, although not official, language of the United States is American English. According to the 20xx U.S. Census, more than 97% of Americans can speak English well, and for 81% it is the only language spoken at home. Nearly 30 million native speakers of Spanish also reside in the US. There are more than 300 languages besides English which can claim native speakers in the United States—some of which are spoken by the indigenous peoples (about 150 living languages) and others which were imported by immigrants. American Sign Language, used mainly by the deaf, is also native to the country. Hawaiian is also a language native to the United States, as it is indigenous nowhere else except in the state of Hawaii. Spanish is the second most common language in the United States, and is one of the official languages, and the most widely spoken, in the U.S. Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.

There are four major regional dialects in the United States: northeastern, south, inland north, and midwestern. The Midwestern accent (considered the "standard accent" in the United States, and analogous in some respects to the received pronunciation elsewhere in the English-speaking world) extends from what were once the "Middle Colonies" across the Midwest to the Pacific states.

Today, our family went to Wuzhen tourism,I am very happy.

At noon we went to Wuzhen,and in the town to find a hotel,my father asked the hotel waiter: “What are the fun places here?”The waiter said: “Wuzhen is divided into two parts of the East Gate and West Gate,but the West Gate ratio East Gate is a little bigger,more fun.”So,our family along the waiter that the road came to Wuzhen Xishan scenic area.

Into the West Gate area,I found this is a water town,a long river to the town is divided into left and right sides.Housing built on the river,are the local residents of their own homes,and some open restaurants,and some open barber shop,and some open dessert shop,more is to open the local characteristics of the shop,are very interesting,Ningbo big shopping malls rarely seen.Of course, my favorite dessert shop!

We are so east to see the West to go for an afternoon,we are tired and hungry,the weather is gradually dark down,so my father took us, looking for a restaurant to eat,this is a local residents in their own Home to open the restaurant,only two tables,each table are close to the window, as long as the windows can be opened to see the river,the river has come and going ship,the boat is sitting to Wuzhen tourism tourists,men and women,old and young.There is a pair of twins little girl!Listen to the owner of the restaurant said the dark night and then go to the boat to visit the river look better,I heard also clamor to go to the boat,my father promised a smile.

A meal I took my father to the direction of the cruise ship terminal,came to the terminal has been a long row of the team, my father touched my head and said to me:“so many people,you still sit?Long time yo? ”I looked at the long team, thought for a while:“ sit,I want to ship.”Mom shook her head to buy a ticket.About an hour or so,we have a family finally got on the boat,sitting on the boat I saw a lot of landscape lights,lotus-shaped, there are lamb shape,there are many, many,a variety of shape landscape Light,really beautiful, can be a good look!

Half an hour after we take the boat to the exit of the terminal,Wuzhen Xiguan tour is over,I looked back at the water town, next time I have the opportunity to come.

For the student who wants to improve his English quickly and learn about American customs firsthand, there is often an opportunity to live with an American family. There may be some disadvantages in this arrangement; however, I believe there are far more advantages.

First of all, the disadvantages may include lack of privacy and little opportunity to be independent. They will lose the chance of living on their own. Another drawback to living in an American home involves the possibility that the family may treat the student like a child. For example, the parents may want to decide who his friends should be and where he should go during his leisure time.

Even though there may be some disadvantages in living with an American family, the advantage far overweighs them. By taking part in a home-stay program, the student has an excellent opportunity to learn about American customs. Also, he will learn about many other aspects about American way of life, such as the way schools are run in the U nited States. And the family will no doubt make cerlain that he becomes acquainted with this new way of life, and soon he will feel at home.

The seaside resort of Qingdao extends from Tuandao in the west of Qingdao to Damaidao in the east with an overall length of 25 kilometers, including a marine area of 5 square kilometers and land area of 8.5 square kilometers. It is one of the first National Scenic Resorts appointed by the State Council in 1982. The scenery of the Zhanqiao Pier, Luxun Park, Little Qingdao Isle, Xiaoyu Hill, Badaguan, the seashore and the May Fourth Square are all beside the sea and constitute the famous scenic sights of Qingdao. Red roves and green trees, sapphire sea and blue sky in the scenic resort will make you feel happy and fresh.

Zhanqiao Pier: Zhanqiao Pier, built in 1891, is the symbol of Qingdao. After several restorations, from being a simple military harbor, it is now open to tourists. The pier is 440 meters long. There is an octagonal pagoda of distinctive Chinese style, “Huilan Pagoda” at the end of the pier. From the top, tourists can fully view the magnificent sea. Along the shore is the beautiful Pier Park, which is a pleasant and quiet place for tourists to rest or enjoy the scenery of Little Qingdao Isle and its white tower.

We take a holiday of 7 days because of the National Day.As we all know，October 1 is the National Day of China in Gregorian calendar.

In the holiday I went to visit the Yellow River Forest Park togeter with three of my classmates.It was very boring when staying in the bus for a long time，which made me doze off all the time，and at some time，I nearly struck my head on the chair in the front of me.After two hours‘ journery by bus，we finally got to the park.But to my disappoint，there was nothing intresting here，which were quiet normal things.Compared with the my school I stayed in，here was very noisy and messy.

Though the park is beside the Yellow River，the air is still a little smelly because there are a lot of animals such as horses，cocks and so on here，which make lots of wastes every day while few people clean them.In a word，the park is not so good as I had expected，and I felt unsatisfied about it.
