My Opinions on Study Tour

In recent years, many primary and middle schools have been organizing study tours for

Students

[1 ]Have you ever heard of the poem The Leek Flowers(苔花) by Yuan Mei of Qing Dynasty(朝代)?

Where the sun does not arrive,

Springtime does on its own thrive.

The leek flowers as rice tiny,

Eager to bloom like the peony(牡丹)

[2]In fact, the poem has been sleeping for three hundred years. (72) It appeared to the world again just because of a man named Liang Jun, a teacher from Guizhou.

[3]on February 16th, 2018, Liang Jun and his students took part in the program Everlasting Classics《經(jīng)典詠流傳》 on CCTV. They together performed the beautiful song The Leek Flowers, which moved tens of thousands of people in front of the TV. Not only the hosts but also the audience stood up to clap for those lovely children and their teacher, Mr. Liang.

[4 ]When talking about the reason why Liang chose the poem The Leek Flowers, he said that he hoped his students could learn something important from the silent leek flowers:(74)

how hard the life is, we should try to reveal (展現(xiàn))the most beautiful scenery in our heart. That is just what Yuan Mei wanted to express in the little poem.

[5]Always remember that life will be in its blooming (開花)season sooner or later and what you need to do now is to accept enough wind and rain and snow as well to get ready for it.

It is a museum about taxes (稅收)．In this museum，you can see the history of taxes and all kinds of taxes in different countries in the world.

In the early times of Egypt，farmers had to pay heavy taxes if the water level(水面)of the River Nile rose.The kings said that if the water level rose，there would be much more earth in farmers' fields.So the farmers could get a good harvest and they should pay more taxes.

A strange kind of tax—Window Tax appeared(出現(xiàn))in England.It lasted more than one hundred years.How? If there were more windows in the wall，the people must pay more taxes.So in those years, people built as few windows as possible in the wall.

Russian people once paid a tax for their beards (胡子)．The people who had paid this tax would get a special piece of paper.But what about the people who didn't pay for their beards? Of course，their beards would be cut.But without a beard for a man is a way to scorn(蔑視)God.He would also be punished.
