THE BRITISH MUSEUM
Around the round square, there were at least six entrances, which lead to the exhibition room, I visited the ancient Egypt, Middle East, Greece and Rome first. There were a lot of sculptures in the hall, Sphinxes, Grecian pillars of Victory, and the reliefs were hanging on the wall. Many reliefs were fragmentary, even some of them were only fragments. All the sculptures exhibiting are huge, and most of them were ten times bigger than my body. As well known, Ancient Greece had a sublime belief about art, as a result, they made sculptures of human and adored it as deity, just like our Ancient Chinese adored dragons.
However, the most interest show must be the theme of mummies. I had never seen mummy before, but this time, I saw at least 10 mummies who had different society grade. In my opinion, they were really hot, and make me very exciting. Some of the mummies were wrapped with thick thread, some covered with squama liked web, some wrapped with cloth directly, and even I could see the teeth on the skull.
Finally, I and my classmate brought some hot-dogs at the flowing tradesman, tasty!

THE PUCKINGHAM PALACE
Today I visited the Buckingham palace . Though there were many palaces in Beijing, but none of them same as Buckingham palace . It was hard to imagine the appearance of the palace that I only have seen this style of structure on TV.
The building was in such a old western style, and it was grey outside, there were many badges hang on the main entrance and the black railings. Which consisted of golden lion king ,deep green lions and unicorn, It was the symbol of royal power. In the railings there were widen square in front of the building ,and many soldiers stood at the back of the squear.They were wearing typical royal army uniforms which was red in dress and black in shoes and hat. Surrounded the railing in front of the palace entrance ,there was a big square , many statues and the cenotaph of Queen Victoria: the goddess of victory stand as golden angel at the top of the cenotaph. The other statues stood round the cenotaph, the entire sculpture lookes magnificent and beautiful.
Through the side door, passed the crowds and the security check,I were allowed to go inside the state room .Followed the audio guide ,first I saw the main stairs which was surrounded by many capacious room, all the pillars were decorated with golden lacquer and the elaborate artworks. Followed the gold-studded red carpet , I came to the second floor .
There was a big sculpture at the end of the stair,and a huge crystal chandeliers if you looked up.Every room I passed were decorated with many different sized mirrors,which were surrounded by golden frame,those mirrors were spread from floor to ceiling, at the other side of mirror we could see the entire beautiful arc ceiling and lots of basso-relievo.Kept going , I arrived at the art galleries which were hung full of famous canvas..Along with the aisle there were many symmetrical fireplaces and metal sofas ,each fireplace was builded by white stones ,some parts of the stone were carved as a gossess.
After passed a lots of elaborate rooms, I were arriving at the ball-room . It was a big room, walls and carpets were all red.There were many huge crystal chandeliers ,in the middle of the room, there was a quadrate table circle, around the table ,there were hundred or more seats , each seat corresponded to a suit of dish ware. Besides the best chinas,every one eating here had six glass cups in different size,each size of cup has its own function ,for example, round one for wine, and short ones for champagne and pudding. Every dishware include the dinner cloth was lay in a exactly place , in front of each dish ware there was also a small light,and a hank of flower, everythings were made to be perfect .At the end of the round table, there were two main seats which were bigger and more magnificent compare with the chairs around of course they belonged to the queen and the king.At the back of the main seats, there were two guarder who were weared traditional dress right close to the wall,and there were also a bandstand in the opposite wall. Around the table ,there would be a lots of servant when the real dinner began.After the dinner ,there was a special performance : a small group of actors will play pipe organ while walking around the table,.The dinner would completely finished, when they finished the show .And as the audio guide said , the servants must have to prepare for the dinner wares two days before it took place.
Behind the fantastic dinner, there even was a bigger preparation-system.Next door of ball room was a long preparative crush room, the dirty plates and glass would be gathered here. Behind the big mirrors on the walls of the crush room there was a elevator,which would brought the new dishes and took away the old ones. Most of the places for perparation is below the ground floor ,so there were a lots of elevator hided on the wall in the back of the mirror.
Left the ball room, I came to a series of the small rooms. –the blue draw room , the white draw room and the concert hall, all of the rooms were faced to the royal garden .As the autio said, the blue draw room has been regard as the most elegant room, and you could see the round table ,which was given by the king of france.The white draw room was the most beautiful room I had ever seen, all furnitures were consist of white and gold, and at the end of the room ,there was a movable wall beside the fireplace.That was the shortcut from the queen’s living room to the draw room, and every time the queen and the royal member would appear from the wall,and made the guests surprise.Kept going , the next room was the concert hall,the special design for the concert hall could give people a strong visual strike: big pillars beside the arc windows were Grecian,although they looks like marble , actually they were made of scagliola.The most eye - catching thing was the roof of the concert hall ,it was round and decorated by glod and ivory.Undoubtedly ,these upholster showed the sovereign royal power.
Passed the stairs I returned to the ground floor, and a collection corridor. A great many of sculptures were lay on the two sides of the parthway.At the end of the corridor, was the main stair, Through the side door I could go to the south royal garden.We could visit just a little parts of the palace, which were the oldest and most luxury parts . The whole building was full of costful work of art, and fine furniture .
Stepped along the garden I could see a vast lawn and the lod trees around. There also a lots of animals which inhabited in the big garden.We spent nearly 20 minutes went out the garden,And I were really enjoy the visit.

MICROORGANISM
Microorganisms are incredibly diverse and include bacteria, fungi, archaea, and protists, as well as some microscopic plants and animals such as plankton.Many scientists would not include viruses and prions, which are often classified as non-living. Most microorganisms are single-celled, or unicellular, but some multicellular organisms are microscopic, while some unicellular protists, and bacteria called Thiomargarita namibiensis are visible to the naked eye.
Microorganisms live in all parts of the biosphere where there is liquid water, including hot springs, on the ocean floor, high in the atmosphere and deep inside rocks within the Earth's crust. Microorganisms are critical to nutrient recycling in ecosystems as they act as decomposers. As some microorganisms can fix nitrogen, they are a vital part of the nitrogen cycle, and recent studies indicate that airborne microbes may play a role in precipitation and weather.
Microbes are also exploited by people in biotechnology, both in traditional food and beverage preparation, and in modern technologies based on genetic engineering. However, pathogenic microbes are harmful, since they invade and grow within other organisms, causing diseases that kill millions of people, other animals, and plants.
Microbiology-- is the study of microorganisms, which are unicellular or cell-cluster microscopic organisms.
Bacteria-- (pl.bacterium) are a group of unicellular microorganisms.
Archaea-- are a group of single-celled microorganisms. Archaea, like bacteria, are prokaryotes and have no cell nucleus or any other organelles within their cells.
Plankton --consist of any drifting organisms (animals, plants, archaea, or bacteria) that inhabit the of oceans, seas, or bodies of fresh water. Plankton provide a crucial source of food to aquatic life.
Prion-- an infectious protein particle similar to a virus but lacking nucleic acid; thought to be the agent responsible for scrapie and other degenerative diseases of the nervous system .
Thiomargarita namibiensis -- is a gram-negative coccus Proteobacterium found in the ocean sediments of the continental shelf. Discovered in 1999, it is the largest bacterium ever discovered, with a width up to 750 μm (0.75 mm), making it easily visible to the naked eye.
Nitrogen fixation-- is the process by which nitrogen is taken from its natural, relatively inert molecular form (N2) in the atmosphere and converted into nitrogen compounds
biosphere-- is the part of the Earth, including air, land, surface rocks, and water, within which life occurs, and which biotic processes in turn alter or transform.
Decomposers-- are organisms that consume dead organisms, and, in doing so, carry out the natural process of decomposition.
