　　•  Our Computer and Internet Access：

　　There was only one computer room in our school, and all the computers were too old to run normally. In order to surf the internet to look for materials for the website, we had to spare the noon to finish them because of many classes and the schedule in the school.
　　
　　• Problems We Hard To Overcome：

　　A: Our classes schedule was very tight. As disciplined students, we could not escape any classes that we had to spare our noon to do this instead of at the other time.

　　B: Communication barrier. Searching for material was quite difficult because of the out-of-date computers, of which the too slow running was always challenging our patience. To improve this, our master teacher Mr. Dai cut off all the teachers' internet except the computer room's, leaving the last straw for us.

　　C: Due to our nonprofessional manipulating computers, we did encounter many difficulties during the website construction, and finally our website could be successfully built up all thanks to teacher Mr. Dai's patient guidance.

　　D: Conquered difficulties. Our classes schedule was very tight, so did the teachers' work. To finish our website on time, at weekends, we even came to school to make it that was several miles far away. And teachers Mr. Ma and Mr. Dai also put aside their house works and came to school to assist us. And our essays and diaries were all typed into the computer at weekends by ourselves. For these two days we were very anxious because of the approach of the deadline, the teachers were so busy in the school that could spare time to help us, but they still helped to contact with the teachers in Tianjin, asking for some more days for us. Moreover, teacher Mr. Ma encouraged us to have the belief of a strongest team that we could successfully finish the website. Thanks again for his further reasonable advices for our website, we did calm down and concentrate on every detail of the following things.

　　E: We were so sorry for our poor English for participating in the contest that we turned to the teachers in the Town and Talent, we sincerely appreciate that.
