Today we visited Qinghua University. Early in the morning we arrived at the gate of Qinghua University where an old professor gave us a warm welcome. We were shown around and then we went to the library, where we saw many books and some university students reading attentively. After that we visited the lab building. In the campus, some students were studying under the trees. The old professor gave us a lecture on science in the afternoon. Time passed quickly. Before we knew it, we had to say goodbye to the professor. At night, I worked harder at my lessons than usual and made up my mind to be a student of Qinghua University.
