Friday 10 October It's a sunny and pleasant day. I was tidying my room this morning and found an old 1 in a notebook. As I was looking at it, the 2 memory of that day came back to me. It was my mother's 3 birthday ten years ago, and I decided to surprise her with home-made scrambled eggs. I woke up really early and walked to the4 quickly. I had never cooked anything before, so I tried to copy how 5 did it But somehow they ended up burnt. I was about to throw everything away when my mother 6 I showed her the eggs and 7 explained what happened. To my surprise, she tasted them and said they weren't bad! I guess 8 is indeed a magical ingredient. 9 , we took this wonderful photo, laughing and at e them all. This weekend is her 45th birthday I'll make her scrambled eggs 10 . This time, they won't be burnt! |

David Brown is a 15-year-old boy from the UK. This summer he is studying Chinese in a summer camp in Gansu Province. This is what he told our interviewer. | |
What do you think of Gansu? Well, I think it's fantastic. Summer is the best season to visit Gansu. I enjoy the pleasant weather a lot. Gansu also has many pretty views with a long history. Is there anything else you especially like about it? Yes, the friendly people and delicious foods. When we were in Tianshui City 3 days ago, we tried malatang, a traditional spicy hot pot dish. I like it a lot. Beef noodles and niangpizi are also my favorites. I haven't tried huidouzi. But it seems very tasty. | Where are you staying in Gansu? I'm staying with some very nice families in different cities in Gansu. That's quite helpful for learning Chinese and experiencing the life and culture here. That's why I've chosen home-stay. Do you like learning Chinese? I enjoy learning Chinese because it's interesting and has a rich history. Chinese characters are beautiful, and the language offers many chances. Being able to speak Chinese will be very helpful in the future. I want to be a Chinese teacher when I'm elder. |
