What do you know about Yan’an
Daniel has visited Yan'an.
Yan'an sits on the banks of the Yanhe River, with hills all around it. It is a place full of history. I have been there recently.
Yan'an was the base of the Communist Party of China and has become a symbol of the Chinese people's spirit of never giving up during that difficult period.
If you want to know more about the history of the Communist
Party of China, I will recommend Yan'an Revolutionary
Memorial Hall. It is a large museum with a rich collection of
historical records including thousands of photographs. There
you will be able to learn a lot about our heroes' great efforts during hard times. It is important for us to remember those heroes.

Read Daniel's article about the classical gardens of Suzhou and summarize the main idea of each paragraph.
Classical gardens of Suzhou
The classical gardens of Suzhou have long been a popular attraction for visitors from home and abroad. These beautiful gardens have a long history and are a cultural treasure of China.
These gardens are special because their designs show off the beauty of natural landscapes. The buildings there have light grey roofs and white walls so the gardens look like Chinese landscape paintings. There are beautiful rocks, ponds, hills and trees. A walk through the gardens will make you feel relaxed. No matter where you stand, there is always a perfect picture in front of you. What's more, the patterns and carvings on the doors and windows are fantastic to look at, simple but unusual.
The classical gardens of Suzhou are a model for other gardens all over China. They express traditional Chinese culture, art and design all in one.
