My Trip to London

By Wang Zhe (Philip)

This fall, EF gave three students a trip of a lifetime! Philip, David, and James from Jinan went to Brighton, England for two weeks of traveling, studying, and fun! The boys were the grand prize winners of the 2005 EF English First Taxi Competition.

今秋,EF送给中国三个朋友旅游! Philip, David, 和 James 去英国布菜顿动两个星期学习,旅游,玩一玩. 男孩是EF全球抽奖活动的胜利者.

Listening to my mp3s, I noticed our plane had already landed at London Heathrow Airport. Stepping onto the earth of the Great Britain, breathing the cool and fresh air, I felt comfortable even after a 13-hour-long flight. As soon as we left the airport, we were on our way to Eltham College, where we would have our course. I watched the night scenes outside the window. Shortly after arriving at our destination, my friend James and I met our host family for the first time. I was really exhausted, so I followed them straight home for a big sleep.

听着MP3，我发现飞机已经在伦敦希斯路机场降落了。踏上大不列颠的土地，呼吸着凉爽、新鲜的空气，即使在13个小时的长途飞行后，我还是觉得很舒服。一离开机场，我们就前往艾森学院，在那里我们将开始课程。我欣赏着窗外的夜景。达到目的地没多久，我和我的朋友詹姆士就第一次见到了接待我们的人家。我实在太累了，跟着他们回到家就倒头大睡。

Soon I fell into our daily routine. From Monday to Friday, we spent our mornings having lessons at Eltham College with Freddie and Ali, our teachers during the course. With their humor and excellent teaching, their lessons were filled with both knowledge and fun. I enjoyed their lessons so much that I’d be sure to give them 100% in any evaluation.

过了不久我就适应了我们的日常生活。周一至周五，我们早上与弗雷迪和艾丽老师一起上课。他们幽默、精彩的教授使课程既有知识性又不失趣味。我非常喜欢他们的课，肯定会给他们满分的评价。

The activities in the afternoons and weekends were as wonderful as the morning lessons. I was most excited to see Big Ben and the Parliament House with my own eyes because they’d always been the symbols of London in my mind. Besides them, there was a cruise on the Thames River, a visit to the Tower of London as well as a walk through Piccadilly Circus. What I enjoyed more than anything else was Thorpe Park because of several exciting rides, like the roller coasters, which made my heart beat so fast. What we saw on London Eye was also really worth seeing. This was the only place where people could look over the whole city.

下午和周末的活动同早上的课程一样精彩。能亲眼目睹大本钟和国会大楼的风采让我尤其兴奋，因为在我的心目中它们一直是伦敦的象征。除了这两处景点，还有我们还乘船在泰晤士河上航行、参观伦敦塔、漫步皮卡迪利广场。我最喜欢的是索普公园，因为像云霄飞车之类的刺激项目使我心跳飞快。从伦敦眼看到的景象的确值得一见。这是唯一一处人们可以俯瞰整座城市的地方。

One weekend, we took a trip to Brighton. That was an absolutely fun day, too. We sat on the beach, watching waves coming over and over again, enjoying pure fish and chips as well! And I have to admit that I would have really regretted it if I hadn’t visit Madame Tussaud’s. There were a great many waxworks of actors, singers, and politicians etc. They were all so lifelike that I just couldn’t believe they were made out of wax!

一次周末我们来到布莱顿。那也绝对是美好的一天。我们坐在沙滩上，看着海浪一波接一波地滚滚而来，同时享受着纯正的软炸鱼和炸土豆条！另外我必须承认如果我没有参观杜莎夫人蜡像馆，我肯定会后悔。那里有许多演员、歌手和政坛人物的蜡像，栩栩如生，我简直不能相信它们都是用蜡作成的！

Twenty-one days later, I left London. I loved it there. As our plane take off, I told myself that I would absolutely return someday.

二十一天后，我离开了伦敦。我喜欢这里。飞机起飞时，我告诉自己将来有一天我一定会回到这里的。
