his　handcrafts；　“Over　there　are　‘Legendary　Lovers　Cowherd　and　the　Girl　Weaver　Meet　Annually　on　Bridge　Formed　by　Magpies’　and　‘108　Heroes　of　the　Bush　on　Mount　Liang　Shan’。”
From　the　shopkeeper　I　knew　that　kites　can　be　divided　into　several　kinds　such　as　kites　in　the　shape　of　plank　and　kites　with　soft　wing。　The　lift　part　of　kites　with　soft　wing　is　made　of　only　one　strip。　The　lower　part　of　the　wing　is　soft；　which　is　not　reinforced　with　another　strip。　The　main　part　of　the　framework　is　mostly　made　into　the　shape　of　a　relief　sculpture。　This　suits　birds　and　insects　such　as　eagle；　swallow；　crane；　phoenix；　mantis；　cicada；　etc。
Flying　kites（2）
“Time　to　go；　clara。”　Called　Aldo；　who　mysteriously　disappeared　beside　me　just　now；　holding　a　bottle　of　orange　juice　which　he　believed　was　rich　in　vitamin　C。
“OK；　I’m　ing。”　said　I。　Taking　my　steps　at　a　run　towards　Aldo；　I　asked：　“what　are　the　shapes　of　your　kites？”
“One　is　an　aeroplane；”　answered　Aldo；　beckoning　me　outside　the　shop；　“as　for　the　other；　maybe　it　is　a　bee。”
“Maybe？”　I　asked　in　bewilderment。　“So　you　are　not　sure？”
“Well；”　Aldo　shrugged；　“because　I　have　several　kites　at　home　and　I　can’t　recognize　them　since　they　are　wrapped　in　bags。”
I　nodded　in　agreement　while　we　were　heading　towards　the　park。
After　placing　our　things　under　the　statue　of　a　clock　tower；　Aldo　began　to　untie　a　purple　slender　kite　bag　and　unfolded　the　black　kite　which　was　an　aeroplane。　I　held　the　kite　for　him　while　he　was　busy　searching　the　bag　for　two　more　plastic　bars　which　was　used　to　reform　the　folded　kite　into　its　original　shape　again。　Aldo　finally　found　the　bars　and　made　the　kite　flat　and　strong。
Now　the　kite　was　done。　It　seemed　so　eager　to　fly　in　the　sky　and　it　made　me　feel　as　if　I　were　going　to　fly　away　with　it；　all　we　needed　to　do　was　to　connect　it　to　the　line　wired　around　the　reel　that　Aldo　was　holding。　He　fastened　the　end　of　the　line　to　the　hoop　securing　to　the　kite　with　thread。
“Currently；　clara；”　said　Aldo；　gesturing　for　me　to　loose　the　kite。　“Go。”
Then　the　kite　gained　its　height　every　moment　Aldo　let　go　of　the　line。　In　less　than　a　few　minutes；　it　became　a　dot　and　we　could　barely　tell　where　the　tail　or　wing　was。
Many　people　gathered　around　us　in　curiosity。　Aldo　gave　the　reel　to　me　to　let　me　have　a　try。　I　was　hardly　able　to　control　the　line　when　the　reel　kept　circling；　the　kite　got　higher。　Aware　of　my　lack　of　strength；　Aldo　said：　“You　can　use　the　brake　beside　the　handle。”　He　stretched　out　a　hand　to　help　me　brake　the　line。
Time　slipped　away。　Soon　it　was　time　to　have　lunch。　Since　I　hadn’t　tried　pizza　before；　Aldo　suggested　us　to　eat　in　a　newlyopened　pizza　hut。　Lisa　thought　we　had　better　not　eat　so　many　fried　or　roast　or　grilled　food　in　such　a　hot　day；　so　we　went　to　a　Chinese　restaurant　and　had　our　lunch。　
A　great　feast（1）
Thursday；　July　12；　2007
Considering　I　had　never　had　a　bite　of　pizza　before　and　been　parting　long　from　Rachel；　one　of　my　best　friends；　mom　decided　to　invite　us　including　Rachel’s　mother　to　eat　in　Pizza　Hut。
Rachel（中文名：谢静瑶；我的好朋友之一）is　the　one　I　grow　up　
Pizza　Hut　is　an　extremely　ritzy　place　in　my　mind　because　friends　told　me　that　three　of　them　once　spent　RMB　189　there　but　they　were　not　full　at　all。
When　we　stood　in　front　of　it；　the　glass　door　swung　open　at　once；　and　a　beautiful　waitress　said　wele　to　us　as　she　led　us　to　the　second　floor。　The　environment　of　the　Pizza　hut　was　indeed　enjoyable。　It　was　lit　by　many　small　lamps　on　the　ceiling。　These　tables　were　laid　with　glittering　china　plates　and　polished　knives　and　forks。　After　we　settled　down　at　a　square　table；　another　young　waitress　emerged　with　two　ornate　menus。
Examining　the　menus　in　curiosity；　Rachel　and　I　discussed　about　food　here　animatedly。
“My　friends　told　me　there　was　a　kind　of　dessert　which　tastes　very　delicious。　I　want　to　find　it　out　and　order　it。”　Said　Rachel；　hastily　checking　the　menu　cover　to　cover；　“Right；　here　it　is　“Firenze　Tiramisu？　How　does　it　taste？”　“Oh；　it　has　the　chocolate　flavor；　with　many　tiers　which　mix　cream；　icecream　and　cake。”　Then　she　turned　to　the　waitress；　“I　want　Firenze　Tiramisu。”　“Me　too”　I　added　quickly。
“Hey；　what　kind　of　pizza　do　you　two　prefer？”　asked　mom；　helping　us　turn　the　menu　to　the　particular　page　which　contained　various　pizza；　and　all　of　them　made　you　feel　hungry　at　the　sight　of　them。
“we　would　like　the　one　boasts　different　flavors　“the　Super　Supreme　Pan　Pizza　will　be　suitable。”　Mom　told　the　waitress；　“We　want　the　6　inches　Super　Supreme　Pan　Pizza。”
“We　have　a　few　specials　on　the　menu　these　days。　And　I　strongly　remend　King　Arthur’s　Feast　Pizza。”　Said　the　waitress　eagerly；　“with　lots　of　fresh　toppings　on　the　unique　and　crispy　thin　dough；　every　bite　is　delicious；　allowing　you　total　enjoyment。”
“King　Arthur？”　I　said；　raising　my　inquiring　eyebrows。　“Isn’t　he　a　fabled　hero？”
“Yeah。”　the　waitress　answered。　“We　named　this　kind　of　Pizza　based　on　King　Arthur　and　the　Round　Table　Knights　legend。”
“OK；　feast　pizza　is　fine。”　Mom　said　in　conclusion。
“Right；　a　King　Arthur’s　Feast　Pizza；　two　Tiramisu。　Anything　else？”　Asked　the　waitress　while　she　was　busy　taking　them　down　on　the　list。　“Don’t　you　want　something　to　drink？
Then　we　ordered　two　Twin　Berry　Romance　and　two　Kiwi　Mango　Rendezvous。　New　Orleans　Wings　and　Crispy　Fried　squid　was　ordered　in　case　we　would　be　hungry。　As　for　salad；　we　chose　the　selfservice　one　and　a　waiter　gave　us　a　small　deep　plate　to　load　salad。　Rachel　and　I　received　the　glorious　task　of　loading　salad　as　much　as　possible；　for　every　plate　could　only　be　used　once。
A　great　feast（2）
Carrying　the　small　plate　with　us；　we　hurried　to　the　selfservice　salad　spot。　There　were　plenty　of　ingredients　including　apples；　watermelon；　papaya；　maize；　grapes；　cucumbers；　love　apples　and　so　on。　Various　exquisite　dressings　were　also　available。　This　made　us　feel　our　responsibility　was　really　huge；　for　if　we　were　not　careful　enough；　we　could　only　fill　the　plate　with　a　little　fruit；　which　was　not　desirable　at　all。
We　began　to　load　our　plate　with　fruits。　In　order　to　make　good　use　of　the　limited　volume　of　the　small　plate；　we　decided　to　use　the　bricks　of　watermelon　to　build　a　wall　on　the　e
