Alfred Nobel, the great Swedish inventor and industrialist, was born in Stockholm on October 21,1833,but moved to Russia with his parents in 1842, where his father ,Immanuel, made a strong position for himself in the engineering industry. Immanuel Nobel invented landmine and made a lot of money from the government during the Crimean War, but went bankrupt soon after. Then , the family returned to Sweden in 1859, where Alfred began his own study of explosives in his father’s lab. He had never been to school or university but had taught himself, and by the time he was twenty, he became a skillful chemist and excellent linguist, speaking Swedish, Russian, German, French and English. He built up over 80 companies in 20 different countries. He was always searching for a meaning to life. He spent much time and money working on how to end the wars, and keep the peace between nations, until his death in Italy in 1896. His famous last will, in which he left money to provide prizes for outstanding work in physics, chemistry, physiology, medicine, literature and peace, is a memorial to his interests and ideas. And so, the man is remembered and respected long after his death.

回答下列問題
Dear Donald,
Last summer I had a chance to visit the other side of the world. | went to Beijing with my friends. I visited the Great Wall and was deeply impressed by its length. I had never seen such a great wall before!  Walking less than a mile on the wall made me very tired, but I was very excited. I used up three camera films in four hours.
Shopping was another interesting part of the trip. In the Silk Market, I bought a silk shirt for  just a quarter of the price the trader asked for.
I have many memories and experiences to share. I am so lucky to have seen such a culture so different from my own. I will remember my trip to china forever!
Yours,
Jane
