　　Last week, we were off to the gallery, where many abstract oil paintings, ranging from the 13th century to the 20th century, were exhibited. And many of them are worth upwards of millions of dollars each. Because of admission free, it was calculated that there were 5, 000 people going there to enjoy the beautiful oil paintings. We bought some souvenirs and it took us half an hour to go home by bus, and hardly had we got home when it began to rain heavily.
