Throughout history, people have thought of the ocean as a diverse and limitless source of food. Yet today there is clear evidence that the oceans have a limit. Most of the big fish in our oceans are now 61 (go). One major cause is overfishing. People are taking so many fish from the sea that many species cannot replace 62 (they)

Good morning everyone! My name is Li Hua and it’s my great pleasure to welcome our guests from our UK sister school.It's exciting to meet so many new friends.
As this is a cultural exchange program, I'd like to talk briefly about aspects of chinese traditional culture, specifically Chinese painting. Traditional Chinese painting known as “guo hua”, is an enduring art form with a 2000-year-long history. In contrast to western oil painting, it’s usually done on rice paper(宣纸) or thin silk, using various brushes and black or colored ink. With subjects ranging from landscapes to flora and fauna(动植物), these paintings not only reflect the Chinese conception of artistic beauty but also embody the principles of Chinese philosophical thinking. We're planning several visits to our city’s art galleries so you can see for yourself.
I hope you’ll have a fantastic time during your stay with us and enjoy the activities we have organized. Thank you.
