As we walked through the halls, the guide told us stories about the war. In one hall, I saw a piece of art made of thousands of glass 'tears' hanging from the ceiling. It was very moving. After that, we took the Moscow Metro to travel around. The metro stations were really beautiful. Sometimes I felt like I was walking inside a palace.
当我们走过展厅时，导游给我们讲述了关于战争的故事。在一个展厅里，我看到了一件由成千上万玻璃「泪滴」从天花板垂下的艺术品。非常感人。之后，我们乘坐莫斯科地铁游览。地铁站真的很漂亮。有时我感觉自己像走在一座宫殿里。
