build a website together. I will contact you by email and telephone.

I am touched |
| Content |
We reviewed last week's work and I felt our team didn't proceed
smoothly. It is difficult for them who are in the backward western
areas to complete such a project. They were turned cold shoulder
several times as they interviewed the restaurants. The teacher Yan
Yueqing has to spend her own money tasting the food and interviewing.
She provided her computer to the students. And their tools are not
good enough. However, they have a strong desire to make the outside
world know more about their hometown and perseverance to make things
better. I believe they can overcome all the difficulties and successfully
complete the job. |
