August 5 was a special day. It was my eighteenth birthday, on the way to become an adult. I didn’t go out with my relatives as usual, I went to Zhejiang Daily Newspaper Building to experience how an editor of Zhejiang Online Website worked. In the morning, we visited many offices, chatted with Wang Zhidong, the former CEO of Sina, and we tried to edit a report and send it to the Internet. We also had a debate about whether kids’being on-line was good. I stood on the positive side. That was, we should get on-line, to learn, to relax, to shop, to play, to make friends, and to name just a few. We took some pictures to accept as a souvenir. We had lunch there and watched movies afterwards. Spiderman II was truly realistic. We were fascinated by the cool actions, scared by the ugly beast,and encouraged by the brave hero. Then we saw part of Detective Conan, a Japanese cartoon film. In the afternoon, we took a bus to a building where the governors worked to interview a grandpa, who used to work for the young generation.
He is kind, and healthy, though he is over eighty. He loves working, especially working for the youth. He feels more energetic as he talks with kids. At last, he asked us to sing a song for him. We sent a boy on behalf of us all to sing a happy song. He didn’t disappoint us, making everyone present laugh for a while. When the interview ended, we headed back to the newspaper leader handed each of us a diploma and the photos we took that morning. Good time passed quickly. We said good-bye to each other, and then we parted. Yeah, we’ve become friends though we haven’t known each other very long.
In a word, that was a meaningful enjoyable day. I really had great fun.

8月5日是个特别的日子。这是我的第十八个生日，在成为成人的路上。我没有像往常一样和我的亲戚一起出去，我去浙江日报大楼体验了一个编辑是如何在浙江在线网站上工作的。早上，我们参观了许多办公室，与新浪前CEO王志东聊天，我们试图编辑一份报告并发送到互联网上。我们也有一个关于是否kids'being在线是好的辩论。我站在积极的一面。也就是说，我们应该上网，学习，放松，购物，玩耍，交友，并仅举几个例子。我们接受了一些照片作为纪念品。我们在那里吃午饭，然后看电影。Spiderman II是真正的现实。我们被酷的动作迷住了，被丑陋的野兽吓着了，勇敢的英雄鼓励着我们。然后我们看到了日本卡通电影《柯南侦探》的一部分。下午，我们乘公共汽车去了一幢大楼，州长们在那里采访一位曾为年轻一代工作的爷爷。
虽然他已经八十多岁了，但他很善良，很健康。他热爱工作，尤其是为青年人工作。当他和孩子们谈话时，他感到更有活力。最后，他让我们为他唱一首歌。我们派了一个男孩代表我们大家唱一首快乐的歌。他没有让我们失望，使在场的每个人都笑了一会儿。面试结束后，我们回到报社，校长给了我们每人一张毕业证书和当天早上拍的照片。好时光过得快。我们彼此告别，然后分手。是的，我们已经成为朋友，虽然我们彼此认识不长。
总之，那是一个有意义的愉快的日子。我真的玩得很开心。
