[精美语篇]
There are many great adventurers in the history of China and Zheng He was one of them. From 1405 to 1433, he made seven expeditions to the ocean, reaching more than 30 countries in Southeast Asia and East Africa. And it is said that he was likely to have been to Australia, a strange and faraway continent.
As a result of his great achievement, the whole world came to realize the advanced technology of the Chinese people in building ships and at the same time China strengthened its
friendship with other countries. So every time I think of Zheng He, I feel very proud of our country and admire him very much. In my opinion, as students, we should work hard at our lessons and try to build our motherland into a powerful and rich country in the future.
