Because this place is very small, it seems that it is not associated with diplomatic. We have carried out a series of activities about foreign teachers into schools, and we feel we need to show it out, to hope that there will be more opportunities to communicate with the outside world. After deciding the theme, we began to make the picture, division of labor, to collect data for research.

No pains, no gains, under the guidance of a teacher, we completed web production on time with the CISS of company, although it is very rough, after all, it is our result

The resources of the Internet in our school are limited, the computer is few, we should collect a lot of information, so we have to go to the teacher's office to check the information, and the teachers are very supportive of us and accompanied us for overtime work until completed.
