Have you ever visited the Forbidden City? This year is its 600th birthday. It is the world's largest palace and has over 17 million visitors every year. But if we traveled back to the past, we probably wouldn't be allowed inside.

In the past, all buildings in Beijing were low except the Forbidden City. From outside,ordinary (普通的) people could only imagine what it looked like inside.

The Forbidden City takes up 720,000 square meters in the heart of Beijing. It was built from 1406 to 1420 by the third emperor of the Ming Dynasty, the Yongle Emperor. After that, it was the living and working place of 14 emperors of the Ming Dynasty and 10 emperors of the Qing Dynasty.

During those times, the Forbidden City was where the country's supreme power (最高权力) could be found. Emperors were born, lived, fought and died there. It saw the highs and lows of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and it plays a very important part in Chinese history.

The cultural relics (遗物) and documents (文件) in the palace show how the royal families lived. They are still used today for historical research, as well as inspiration for literature (文学) and entertainment (娱乐).

In 1987, the Forbidden City was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site.For world leaders who visit China, it has become a mustsee.In 2017,when US President Donald Trump paid a state visit to China,President Xi Jinping and his wife Peng Liyuan welcomed Trump and his wife there.

My favorite book is the Little Prince written by the French writer Antoine.The book tells about how children see the world. It's so interesting that I can't help reading it over and over again.

The prince is kind and innocent (天真无邪的),so he doesn't understand why people want to have power, wealth and praises so much.He flew to different planets to find the answer, but finally he still had no idea. In fact, he also had his own problems. In the past, he fell in love with a red rose that was beautiful but vainglorious (自负的). Later, he left the rose because of her vanity (自负).On the earth,he made friends with a fox. They lived together for some time,but in the end he made up his mind to leave to find his rose. To his surprise,the rose was dead,and the planet was full of monkey bread trees.It's a pity that he lost his rose forever.

In my opinion, I think he should value the friendship with the fox, because, after all, the rose was dead.The friendship is important as well.The story is about friendship,love and humanity(人性).It's helpful for us students to think more about the world. So let's open it and take a great journey along with the little prince.

There is an old Chinese saying, (4)"If someone gives you a little drop of wateryou should return a spring of water"That means if someone helps you a bit, you should thank him a lot.

We thank our teachers who give us drams.(5)对于老师来说,教育我们是不易的.They teach us a lot of things, but they ask for nothing from us. We are well﹣ educated by them.

Meanwhile(同时),We even thank people who hurt us ,because they teach us important things. We thank people who give us up, because we learn how to be independent. We thank people who are selfish(自私的),because we learn the importance of being kind.

There are a lot of people that we should thank in our life. We should express our thanks with actions, not just words. Then what action will you take to thank them?
