My grandparents came to visit me in the weekend. I was so happy because I hadn't seen them for a long time. I missed my grandma's delicious food, because she always knew what my stomach liked. My job was to take them to hang around the city. I took them to the famous sites, where were so leisure and full of local features. Walking on the old street with historical materials, they had so much feelings, and thought about the old times and taught me to cherish the things I had. I kept their words in mind. At night, I helped my grandma to cook dinner. All the people sat in the table and had a nice talk.
我很开心爷爷奶奶周末来看我,因为我已经很长一段时间都没有见到他们了。我想念奶奶做的好吃的食物,她总是知道我喜欢吃什么。我的任务就是带他们去转转这个城市。我带他们去了一些有名的,比较休闲的,充满了当地特色的景点。走在那些有历史文化的老街,他们感触很多,想到了过去的时光,也教育我要珍惜所拥有的东西。我记住他们的话。晚上,我帮奶奶一起做饭,所有的人都围着桌子坐,愉快地聊天。
