My classmates and I went to the Beijing Exhibition Hall to see the exhibition on China’s achievements in last Saturday.

The exhibition attracted thousand of people all over the country, so we had to wait for a long time to get in. Luckily, we met a docent(讲解员) who gave us a introduction of the development during these years. We listened attentive and were deeply impressed by the brilliant success of our County. When we step into the Hi-tech display section, our eyes were caught by the high-speed train model “Fuxing”. We were so amazing at it that we couldn't help take pictures all the time. After leaving, with the words “Chinese Dream” as a setting, we had a group photo to record the great moment.

The visit to the exhibition gives me greater faith in Chinese dream, that our personal dreams are closely related to.
