American travel

Pudong transit to the United States

The sound of the alarm will wake me up in my dreams, then my mother will drive me to Hefei Xinqiao Airport, then we will fly to Shanghai Pudong Airport. After a noon wait, we finally boarded A-340 to Los Angeles, USA. The plane's flight, the twelve-hour flight time made me an acute one, and finally we arrived safely at the airport in Los Angeles. The first impression that Los Angeles gave me was cool, comfortable, comfortable, no noisy, no high-rise buildings, everything was so beautiful, as if entering the fairyland.

Visit the University of California, UCLA

Just getting off the plane and not taking a good rest, the handsome and cool Chen Dao led us to UCLA without stopping. First printed in the eye is a large football field. According to Chen, my favorite Real Madrid has been trained here! ! ! Unconsciously, I found out that we have entered the campus area. It is no wonder that American universities have no walls. The mascot of UCLA is a bear named BRUINS, which is both cute and solemn. It stands at the door of Ackerman Union. The school's newspaper is DAILYBRUIN, the student ID is BRUINCARD, and the network system is also called BRUINONLINE. BRUINS also symbolizes the abilities and strength of UCLA students. Then we visited the library, which is rich in collections, including our favorite books such as Harry Potter. Ending the University of California tour, we drove to the famous Avenue of Stars

Avenue of Stars Tour

After about an hour's drive, we arrived at the Avenue of Stars. In my imagination, the Avenue of Stars should be spectacular and very stylish. It was discovered that it was not what I imagined, but the stars were engraved on both sides of a street. If it’s not a star shining, this street is not at all eye-catching. We followed Chen Dao first to the front of the Kodak Theatre, where the annual Academy Awards ceremony was held. I took the lead in finding the "star" directed by Wu Yusen. His "star" is somewhat different from other stars. His name is Chinese rather than English. It is very eye-catching. Then we found Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan and Tom Cruise. The "star". By the way, there is a special "star", it is on the wall, yes, he is the "star" of the beaten champion Tyson, because Tyson has never fallen in the career boxing competition, so there is no Placed on the ground, but placed on the wall uniquely.

Although the Avenue of Stars is not very magnificent, it carries the dreams of many stars, and they have experienced many hardships but no complaints.

Swim in Disney

When it comes to Disney, everyone can't help but think of Mickey and Minnie. And when it comes to Disneyland, it will naturally come to Hong Kong, but this time it is the authentic American Disneyland! We were shocked once in the haunted house in the morning, screaming once in the splashing hill, enjoying it once in the Taishan Tree House, and scaring it once again in the pirate ship. At noon, we ate a meal of "The Burger King" and started playing crazy in the afternoon. After passing the addiction of the racer, I played "Bath Lightyear" and watched a parade. I drove the interstellar speed in the "Tomorrow World", evading the stones in the interstellar space, falling rapidly, and returning to the earth with a dizziness. . After a day of fatigue, we finally fell to the hotel to rest.

Hollywood legend

With the Xu Haifeng of Los Angeles, we drove to the Universal Studios Hollywood studio. We went to the “Transformers” first. After 4D, we got a goose bump and went to the “Mulu Park”. "The continuous high-altitude rush made me a little bit of a sneak peek." Later, we took a tram ride and experienced a thrilling journey. We encountered a series of accidents such as a major earthquake, flood, wooden bridge collapse, great white shark rear-end collision, and confrontation with King Kong. We also experienced the "Moses over the Red Sea" and "speed and The movie plots such as street racing in Passion are memorable.

Thrilling transit journey

At two in the morning, we went to the airport in Los Angeles, bid farewell to Chen Dao, bid farewell to this beautiful city, fly to Columbus by plane, because there is no direct flight, we can only fly to Houston first, then fly to Columbus, but because There was a time difference of two hours. The plane at 12:46 arrived at 12:21. It was already 12:30 when I got off the plane. I thought it would be possible to board the plane in 16 minutes. Do you know the nickname of Houston? "Aerospace City"! Is it difficult to make the airport as big as the new bridge? After a careful inquiry, our boarding gate is a thousand meters away from our location! I also need to take the tram. We followed the teacher for nearly 30 minutes of "struggling" and finally boarded the plane.

Borrowing a foreigner's home

Just got off the plane, I saw some foreigners and the ambassador of this Columbus tour smiled and welcomed us. My buddy Liu Zixu is in a foreign family. Housewife Jenny and her two children drove us to her home. On the way, the small town of Columbus left me with the impression of beauty, beauty and beauty. The greening protection work here is very good. It is a grassland. It has a small sense of freshness. It may be the reason that I lived in the city for a long time. I was once again intoxicated and fell asleep - "WELCOMETOOURHOUSE!" In this way, we walked into Jennifer's home. Jennifer's home was a small villa like the rest of the family. The home played AKON's passionate songs, and everything was so beautiful. Jennifer led us to visit their room and introduced her family. It turned out that she has 5 children, the boss is 23 years old, has already joined the work; the second child is 20 years old, is studying at university; there are 3 living at home, there is a big garden behind the house, then we kick with several of her children There will be football, dinner pizza is very delicious, crisp and soft, and you will know that it is Pizza Hut. After a meal, I chatted for a while and learned that the Jennifers and their youngest daughter were adopted in China a few years ago. It is no wonder that they are small and clever, and they look like Chinese girls. Maybe we were too tired, and we woke up at three o'clock in the afternoon of the next day. We didn't know it and said very politely that "Goodmorning" after we had lunch, we watched the training class of CUS FOOTBALL and listened. A concert and visited the US police station! ! The original CUS father was a sheriff. The US police station is not like the Chinese police station. It is very quiet, very rare, and there are libraries and museums. The next morning, we bid farewell to the Jennifer family and start a new journey.

The charm of Ohio State University

Saying goodbye to the Jennifer family, we followed the scales to visit the nation's largest campus, Ohio State University. We visited the most advanced OSU stadiums in the United States, the RPAC and the football stadium, as well as the THOMSON library and admissions office. I can see that the students are holding books and savoring them. Unlike Chinese students who only know how to play games, maybe this is the difference between Chinese and foreign students! After eating Napoleon Pizza, we rushed to the Columbus Parliament Hall. I imagined how spectacular the hall was. I realized that the hall was very simple, a conference table and several offices, a member of Columbus. Introduced us to the history of Columbus, the city's long exhibition, and so on. Next, exciting things happened. Dr. Sui Li took us to the ALUMCREEK Reservoir Park and went to the park to barbecue! The environment around the reservoir is very beautiful. The water and the sky are on the hill. A feeling of happiness suddenly comes out. It seems like a good childhood story, so I am immersed in good memories and I can’t extricate myself for a long time. The grilled burgers and hot dogs are ignored, and one is lying down, breathing the fragrance of nature.

Watching the plane experience nature

Under the guidance of the Sun, we rushed to the American Airlines Base in Columbus. Not only did we see the Black Hawk fighter, but we also saw my Idol fighter, the B-2 stealth bomber that dropped nuclear bombs in Japan. I don’t know what I know. I can see at a glance that the fighters developed by the United States decades ago are not much different from the current aircraft technology. This makes me very puzzled and can only show that the United States is very great! After a burger dinner at noon, we went to the natural ecological protection zone of the DARBY River. There is a house in the area. This is not a general house. It is a place to monitor the whole river and its protected areas. The facilities in the room are very advanced. The DARBY River simulation tank, which has turtles, fish, small shrimps, etc., is just like the real one. After the visit, the real test came. We had to catch the fish under the river, and then release it. The first feeling of launching is cool and cool. As we caught the fish against the countercurrent, many people fell in the water and cooled down. I worked very hard to find the creatures in the river, but my luck was just a little bit. I caught a fish in total, and it was still a very common type. It was really unsatisfactory. Through this personal experience, in fact, nature is so considerate, only to experience it, you can feel that unique beauty.

Sightseeing in the US capital

Say goodbye to the unforgettable city. After eight hours of sightseeing, we arrived in the capital, Washington. Unlike Ohio, which is close to the Atlantic Ocean, it has plateau mountains and temperatures that are higher than Ohio, but from time to time with the cool sea breeze, after all, the sea is not far away. In the morning, we visited the DISCOVERY space shuttle. The UDVAR-HAZY space center was a lot of scary. Here I saw the Chinese anti-Japanese aircraft and the Chennaide Flying Tigers aircraft. This reminded me of a classic old song. I was so angry that I crossed the Yalu River - it aroused my patriotism for a while - then, with the "roaring" of the plane, we visited the Capitol Hill, the White House, the Lincoln Memorial, and sat alone in the chair at the Lincoln Memorial. It is right in front of him. Yes, he is Lincoln. He is the son of a shoemaker. He is not afraid of the assassination of others. He is not afraid of the opposition of white people to him. He used the declaration to liberate the slaves and opened a new era.

Transfer Philadelphia to New York

In the morning, the sun was shining and we left the beautiful capital of the United States. In my mind, Washington is a tree with green trees. Columbus is like an isolated small country with a parliament building and the current American President Obama. Everything is so quiet, just like this, in this memory We have already come to the former US capital, "The City of Friendship" in Philadelphia. The sky is filled with smoke that has not been able to dissipate for a long time, and the smell of horses that is a little nose-like, I think that more than two hundred years ago, Here is the Declaration of Independence, which cherishes the famous Liberty Bell? After visiting the Independence Palace, we slowly came to the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. The college is not as big and spectacular as it is supposed to be. Although it looks very ordinary, it has been the president of Buffett, Estee Lauder, etc. My heart is moving, I made up my mind to go to Wharton Business School! However, the words of the tour guide can be a bit of a blow to me. "The conditions for Upper Wharton are: the scores of the joint entrance examinations are almost full, and the TOEFL is more than 118 points. After the governor and the mayor write the recommendation letter, and there is a recommendation letter from the governor, there is no guarantee that it will be guaranteed. Admission, just may be considered." The most shocking thing in the souvenir shop was the unintentional discovery of the first year of American universities before they began to learn the equation! It’s really confusing!

Last stop - New York

We went to New York and spent the last three days here. I suddenly felt very cherished, unforgettable, reluctant, and didn't want to go back. With this feeling, we embarked on a trip to New York. With the sea breeze, we took a cruise. Going to Liberty Island and going to see the tall, free Statue of Liberty, I don’t see how beautiful it is. I was amazed at the fact that the goddess’ right hand held a torch symbolizing freedom, and the left hand was engraved with a July 4, 1776 engraving. In the "Declaration of Independence", the foot is a broken handcuff, ankles and chains, and a crown on the head, as if she is shining the world. Later, I went to Wall Street, Fifth Avenue and other places. The last visit was Princeton University. The school was full of the taste of the mid-19th century. The whole school was filled with the scent of the book. The desire was intense and some people were so intoxicated. Here, we ended this time in the United States. trip. At noon the next day, we quietly left New York and greeted us with a new semester. Come on, work hard
