Last summer I spent two weeks in Singapore with my mother and my sister. Before this trip, I heard that Singapore is one of the most beautiful and cleanest countries in . I hoped that I would have an unforgettable time there. In fact, the trip was than I had expected.
Many places in Singapore us. First, we visited Singapore Zoo and Jurong Bird Park. the places are very large and many animals live there. So we had to a whole day seeing all of the animals. However, the most interesting was the Bird Show in Jurong Bird Park. We enjoyed the of the birds. The workers had trained the birds carefully and patiently for long they could dance, sing and even play basketball. At the end of the show, they sent the visitors a message that people’s awareness of protecting birds. I think it is a very helpful and practical of educating people about the nature protection.
Second, after spending a week in relaxing and visiting some tourist spots (旅游景点) in Singapore, my sister and I to attend a short-term English course because English is the official language in Singapore and we thought we would our English quickly. English was the only common language in this class, so all students there had to speak English during the lessons.
The trip in Singapore was truly a nice in my life. During the trip, I learned much about other countries’ lives, other people’s thoughts and I improved my English. , I have made some new friends who I am still keeping in touch and I hope that I will meet them again some day in China and tell them more about our country.
