After the 17th century, global trade and cultural interactions have unfolded unprecedentedly, with sea routes connecting China and Denmark, two countries located at both ends of the Eurasian continent. Chinese elements have also begun to scatter in the Danish palace, embellishing Copenhagen, a Nordic city more than 8000 kilometers away from Shanghai. At the end of June this year, I took a day out of my tight schedule to visit various scenic spots in Copenhagen. The first one I visited was the Rosenberg Palace in the city center. This prestigious palace was built by King Christian IV of Denmark in early 1606 and became a repository for royal treasures after 1710. The appearance of the palace has a strong Renaissance style, consisting of towering towers and red brick walls decorated with sandstone. Strolling through it, you

In the Chinese department of university, although it is no longer required to submit homework in class, it is still required to submit the manuscript within the designated time after completing the writing class. During my previous teaching experience at a university in Melbourne, I had the opportunity to accompany education experts from domestic universities to visit several local high schools in Melbourne. The preferred essay class that can still be clearly remembered is the one that has been observed. In my opinion, the teaching method of writing classes is quite unique in Melbourne's high schools.

A long time ago, I read the story of Steel King Carnegie, and thus gained an understanding of a city that matched his name - Pittsburgh. In the past, this place was both a gathering place for merchants and a battleground for military strategists. The Monongasila River and Allegheny River converge here into the Ohio River, becoming the main waterway connecting the east and west of the United States.
