French culture
I would like to talk about France and French culture. Well, actually, I have never been there. But I am quite fascinated this country, so I have got to know a little bit about it by searching information on the Internet. France is said to be the most romantic country and French is regarded as the most beautiful language in the world. France is the cultural center of Europe. It has the most famous art museum, the Louvre, which holds the well-known art work--- Mona Lisa, by Davinchi. It has the enchanting tourist attraction----the Eiffel Tower. It has the most fascinating town--- Provence. I really wish I can experience the French culture by myself, see the mysterious smile of Mona Lisa and give my boyfriend a kiss under the Eiffel tower. I want to steep myself in the romance and fragrance of Provence. Oh, yes. French food must taste good. It is famous for the croissant and desserts. There are a great deal of small cafes in Paris. The local people enjoy their leisure time there. You know, they chat with friends while eating the scrumptious desserts or sipping a cup of coffee. Sounds pretty nice!

a social custom in China
I am going to talk about a special custom in China. That is people giving money as a present to others on special occasions. For instance, if two people is getting married, their friends and relatives will give them an amount of money as congratulations. Or on some old people's birthdays, they will also receive money from their friends and relatives. well, for return, those friends and relatives will be treated with a rich meal. As for the amount of money they give, it depends on the intimacy and relationship between them and the recipients. I am not surprised at this at people giving over 1000 or even much more to one of their friends on a wedding occasion. But in some cases, this custom has some negative effects. For example, it leads to unnecassary comparison between people. Sometimes it even ruins the friendship between the sender and the recipient, if the money one gives is not enough. This custom has had a long history of, i suppose, hundreds of years. I believe people should pay atttention to the negative effects.

my niece
I am going to talk about my niece. she is my brother's daughter. Since her parents are now working in Shenzhen, another city in China, she is left to the care of my parents. She is 7 years old. She looks lovely and beautiful with her sparking eyes. She is now in grade 1, studying at a primary school in my hometown. I am pretty proud of her coz she always gets the first place in her class. What's more, she has self-discipline. she studies very hard, though on one tells her to do so. Like other children, she is fond of animated movies. She spends much of her leisure time in watching cartoon films. I suppose her favorite animated movie is probably Snow White and Seven Dwarfs, coz she never gets fed up with it after watching it for dozens of times. She likes playing games with her friends. The game they play most may be "hide and seek". Each weekend, i go back home, I see her playing it with several friends.

how do u pronounce "Louvre" and " Eiffel Tower" in English?
I want to describe something about French culture. But I am not quite sure about the pronounciation of its most famous art museum "Louvre" and its well-known tourist attraction "Eiffel Tower". BTW, if I say" I really wish to experience the French culture by myself, see the mysterious smile wearing on Mona Lisa and give my bf a kiss under the Eiffel tower". is there anything wrong?
