Today my topic is "The Famous London Eye". The London Eye is also known as the "Millennium Wheel". It was built to commemorate the year 20xx. Now it has become one of the most famous places for tourism in London. located by the Thames River. It is the third largest ferries wheel in the world. If you go on the wheel, you may feel excited and a little scared too. Each cabin can contain about 15 people. There are thirty-two cabins on the wheel. Every cabin is air-conditioned. I think they must be pretty comfortable. The height of the London Eye is 135 meters, and the speed of its rotation is 0.26 meters per second. It takes thirty minutes to finish one revolution. That’s a long time, but you can enjoy the beautiful view of London.
The designer of this project is David Marx. I think he is a great and smart person. I want to be a building designer too. I will study hard and try to make my dream come true! Before that, I would like to travel all over the world and try to enjoy different kinds of buildings and views!
That’s all! Thank you!
今天是我们英国伦敦游的第一天。有趣的英语课程、丰富的行程安排、女主人对我们无微不至的照顾构成了我快乐的一天。
唐宁街10号首相府、西敏斯特大教堂、国会大厦、大本钟还有那最令人激动的景点——伦敦眼！下午的行程多么令人向往。
伦敦眼其实是一个摩天轮，是伦敦城内最著名的标志性景观。它高135米，共有32个车仓，是为庆祝千禧之年而建造的，所以也叫千禧之轮。本来伦敦市政府是准备让它运行5年就拆掉的，可伦敦眼开放后受到了来自世界各地旅客的青睐，成为全英国最受欢迎的收费景点，于是伦敦市政府便把它保留下来，成了永久性的建筑。
经过半个多小时的排队，兴奋的我们终于登上了伦敦眼，车仓很大，是透明的.。我们二十多个人在一个车仓，一点也不拥挤。巨大的轮子慢慢转动，车仓缓缓上升，往外望，泰晤士河上游轮来来往往，像一条条行动灵敏的热带鱼，岸上是金碧辉煌的大本钟和庄严雄伟的西敏斯特大教堂。我们兴高采烈地拍照留念，车仓不知不觉中已经到了伦敦眼的顶端。居高远眺，整个伦敦市尽收眼底，高高低低的房屋错落有致，横横竖竖的马路整齐划一，灿烂的阳光照在泰晤士河上，波光粼粼，反射出一道道金色的光芒，我陶醉在这如诗如画的美景中。
“当当当”大本钟响亮又雄厚的钟声在耳边回荡，不知不觉中我们已转完了一圈，大家恋恋不舍地下了车仓。回首遥望，阳光下的伦敦眼高耸云端，壮观极了。快乐的第一天！
