　　The Smith family and the King family have become good friends since they have lived in Beijing. Often they travel together. This past Spring Festival they went travelling together because they couldn't visit their families. They travelled to Hangzhou, Shanghai, Suzhou and Wuxi, David and Tom both like to take pictures. Their parents call them the “family photographers.” Both Tom and David like to compare (比较) their photos after they are developed (冲洗). They have just received their photos from Hangzhou and are looking at them right now.

　　“Tom, look at this picture of the silk market in Hangzhou. I really like the different colors of the silk. It makes the picture seem very happy and bright, don't you think so?”

　　“Yeah, I agree with you. Oh, look at this color of silk, it's the same color of the Dragon Well water, see?”

　　“Hey you're right! I thought going to the Dragon Well would be very boring, but it ended up being interesting. What did you think about it, Dave?”

　　“I liked it too. I liked the way the water of the well ran into three different wells. And the water was such a deep blue, like that silk. Though, I don't really like to drink tea, I liked going to the tea house and watching the tea ceremony (仪式). I thought it was really interesting when they told us about the tea. I didn't know that tea can become old. and then isn't good to drink, and that's why you don't like to drink it.”

　　“Maybe you've just gotten some old tea to drink, and that's why you don't like to drink it.”

　　“Heha, you've so funny,” laughed Dave. “Anyhow, I thought it was interesting to watch the tea leaves stand straight up after the hot water was poured over them.”
