the art work

On 14th of March in 2009, I went to Jiangsu Provincial Art Museum to watch the exhibition with my classmates. There was an exhibition of pictures of bulls on the floor. We went upstairs to see how good those artworks were.Jiangsu Provincial Art Museum has long history. It was set up in 1936 and it is the first modern museum in 20th century in China.
To my surprise, there were only five people and a supervisor there. The supervisor asked us if we are students form Nanjing foreign language school, and we answered him yes. He told us that there were several students from our school went there in the morning. We thought they might be GCA students. The name of the exhibition was exhibition of the year of the Ox. All the pictures were drawn by the members of the Jiangsu provincial flower-bird painting association. Most of them were made by one person called Ye Zongqiao. Some of them were vivid while some were not so good. I liked the picture of the couple of cattle best. The painter made this in a traditional way. The cow was pale while the ox was dark, they put their heads very close and face to face. I can get to know their love from their eye contacts. It seems that the painter used the technique of personification and the cattle were two lovers. I like the idea of this art work an some details in it.
William and I went out of the building after about 20 minutes because the exhibition was extremely boring and there were few people there. I did not like the whole exhibition but I enjoyed some of the paintings.

Yesterday my mum and I went to Bebbis restaurant to have dinner. My mum is busy and we don’t go outside to have dinner very much. I saw the advertisement in magazine called Nanjing Map, after that I told it to my mum. My mother was very happy when decided to have dinner there. We met at the gate of Nanjing Foreign Language School at half past five yesterday, and then we took taxi to Nanjing Eastern Shopping Mall. Bebbis restaurant is in it. We had not been there before, so we spent lots of time to find this wonderful place. Bebbis has a very simple sign and it was difficult for us to find it. When we arrived there, we were tired and hungry, but we were so excited because we knew we would have a sumptuous meal.
I found that Bebbis is a Swiss restaurant with beautiful chairs and tables. When we at the door, the waitress were very friendly and welcomed us. The sofas and chairs there were all with cute cushions. They were very warm and made us feel like stay in home. We waitress gave us the menu and two cup of lemon water. It also difficult for us to order what to eat because we saw there were a lot of kinds foods on the menu. They all looked yummy. We thought what we would eat for long time. Finally, we ordered a noodles, a cup of soup, some Salad and Swiss traditional food called Reasite.
The most pained time is waiting for food. However it didn’t take long time to make our food. The waitress gave us the soup first. It was a very yummy. The cook put some milk in it. The milk made it smelled and looked good. Then the waitress gave the Salad. It was made of cucumbers, lettuces and roast chicken. There was also some jelly, cook put it on the vegetable and put the chicken on it. The whole salad looked like a fat tower with many things. Even you don’t know what to eat first.
I like the noodles and the Swiss food-Reasite very much. The noodles were made with some pork, and there were also some tomato ketchup on the noodles. It tasted sweet and a little sour. Reasite was delicious, too. It was made of potatoes, cheese, ham, and pineapples. The cooks cut the potatoes into small pieces, then put them into hot warm and made them become shape of mud. After that they put the cheese on the potatoes, and also put the ham and the pineapple on the cheese. When they finished doing these small things, they put the dish into the oven. It took about 25 minutes to toast it. Finally it became Reasite.
My mum and I had a very good dinner and we also had a very good night. I thought that we should spend more time to eat and chat with our parents. I also thought Bebbis restaurant is a very good place to have meals. Why don’t you come here with your friends or parents?
