美国游学Day5: Culture, art and life

Published by fengyan on

美国

今天是来到洛杉矶的第五天,我们去参观了以下三个地方:

市中心(staples center)

南加大(University of Southern California)

盖蒂博物馆(Getty museum)

市中心(staples center)

首先,我们来到了市中心,老师只给了我们四十分钟自由活动时间。因为广场实在太大,同学们似乎有些头晕转向……于是几位同学自告奋勇向外国人问路。几位美国女孩十分热情地为我们指路,也和同学们聊得很开心~大家的口语能力也得到了很好的锻炼。

First of all, we came to the staples center, the teacher only gave us 40 minutes free time. Because the square is too big, students seem to be a lttle dizzy turn. So several students volunteered to ask the foreigner the way. Several American girls showed us the way enthusiastically and chatted happily withour classmates. Everyone's speaking ability has alsobeen very good practice.

南加大(University of Southern California)

接着,我们去了南加州大学。

进入校园,欧式的圣母喷泉在空中划出优美的弧度,泉水在阳光下熠熠闪光,女神浮雕在图书馆大楼两段遥遥相望……历经岁月冲洗过后的南加州大学,沉淀下深厚的文化底蕴。

Then we went to the university ofsouthern California. Entering the campus, the european-stylevirgin Mary fountain in the air in a beautiful arc, the water shining in the sun, the goddess relief in the library building in the distance. After years of washing, the university of southern California has a profound cultural heritage.

 

这是一所私立学校,一年的学费非常昂贵,大概是六万美金,让我们感到难以置信。但这里还有一个政策——奖学金制度。对于成绩好、品德好的学生,学校也会给他奖励奖学金,甚至会免掉学生这一年的学费。

从老师介绍的这几个方面可以看出,势力和运气或许重要,但更重要的是实力和能力。可能上帝并不是那么公平,但你可以靠自己的努力,尝试改变自己的命运。

It's a private school, and it's very expensive, like 60,000 dollars a year, which is incredible. But here's another policy --scholarships. For good grades, good character students, the school will give him a scholarship, even students will be waived this year's tuition. From the teacher introduced these aspects can be seen, power and luck may be important, but more important is strength and ability. Maybe god is not so fair, but you can try to change your own destiny by your own efforts.

 

令我印象最深刻的,就是畅游在南加州大学的图书馆中……令我吃惊的是,他们专门设立了一个红色的免费领取书架,我们团队的每个同学都拿了一本自己喜欢的书籍,我们开心无比!

What impressed me most was swimming in the Usc library... To my surprise, they set up a red bookshelf for free. Every student in our team took a book they liked. We were so happy!

盖蒂博物馆(Getty museum)

最后,我们来到了闻名遐迩的盖蒂博物馆。老师介绍,盖蒂博物馆是由一个叫Jean Paul Getty(简称盖蒂)的富翁出钱建立的,他非常喜欢收集这些画作,后来收集的实在太多,就在山上建立了一个城堡般的博物馆。死后,他慷慨地将博物馆送给政府和人民。为了让全世界所有人都能欣赏到这些画作——博物馆中的每一幅画都非常精致,每一幅画都体现出画家的情感和精神寄托,每一幅画都生动形象地表现出当时的时代特点,每一幅画都富有深意,这也难怪盖蒂先生会这么喜欢收藏这些东西了。

Finally, we came to the famous Getty museum. The Getty museum was built withmoney from a wealthy man named Jean PaulGetty, the teacher said. He liked to collect the paintings so much that he built a castle like museum on a hill. After his death, he generously gave the museum to the government and people. In order to let everyone in the world can enjoy the paintings - every painting in the museum is very delicate, each painting reflects the artist's emotional and spiritual, each picture is vivid showing characteristics of that time, each picture is rich in meaning, it's no wonder Mr Getty would like to collect these things.

分享

游览了一天,大家都非常疲惫,但仍然坚持来开例会。今天老师给我们换了一种特别的分享方式:在手机上限时奋笔疾书自己的所感所思!看,大家做的多起劲……

After a day's sightseeing, everyone was very tired, but still insisted on coming to the regular meeting. Today, the teacher gave us a special way to share: limited time writing on the phone! Look how hard you're doing…

龙天辰同学:In the morning, we went to the university of Southern California. There was so many beautiful flowers and green trees, engaged our mind and eyes. The most unforgettable place is the library. There were so many books that I was so awesome. And the library was so big, there are several floors.In the afternoon, we went to the Getty Museum and we saw a lot of amazing pictures and sculptures. We all benefited a lot.

早上,我们去了南加州大学。有那么多美丽的花和绿色的树,吸引了我们的思想和眼睛。最令人难忘的地方是图书馆。有很多书,我非常惊喜。图书馆很大,有好几层楼。下午,我们去了盖蒂博物馆,我们看到了许多令人惊叹的图片和雕塑。我们都受益良多。

许珈乐同学:I think it is better to take a deep tour and look at one scenic spot rather than just look at many scenic spots.

我认为与其走马观花似的看多个景点,不如深度游览,细看每一个景点。

04

李睿莹同学:After a long visiting time, we went to the Getty museum, which has hundreds of medi works.  It's said that people here always spend serval hours even whole day visiting these wonderful works. They love art deeply. These works  contain poselains, glasswares, sculptures, paintings and so on. Everyone is the spirit of the artist.

一段长时间观光后,我们又来到了盖蒂博物馆。这里藏有几百件中世纪作品。据说这里很多人都会花数小时甚至一整天的时间研究这里的艺术品,他们真的很热爱艺术。藏品包含了瓷器、玻璃器皿、雕塑和油画等等。每一件作品都体现了艺术家的精神世界。
