上海的周末 上周末，我去了上海。上海是中国最大的城市之一。我先去了外滩，看黄浦江和高楼大厦。然后，我去了豫园，这是一个传统的中国园林。我吃了小笼包——又热又香，非常好吃！晚上，我看了一场传统戏曲表演。上海真是一个美丽的城市！

A Weekend in Shanghai Last weekend, I went to Shanghai. Shanghai is one of China's largest cities. I first went to the Bund to see the Huangpu River and the skyscrapers. Then I went to Yu Garden, a traditional Chinese garden. I ate xiaolongbao — hot and fragrant, extremely delicious! In the evening, I watched a traditional Chinese opera performance. Shanghai is truly a beautiful city!
