During the National Day holiday of 2023, I had an unforgettable trip to Beijing. My family and I watched the flag-raising ceremony(升旗仪式) in Tian'anmen Square(广场).

That was a 1 important moment for us Chinese. It was 2 for us to get up very early because the ceremony started at sunrise(日出). 3 spent three days getting a chance(机会) to watch the ceremony. On the first day, 4 we got up at 5 a.m., we still missed the ceremony. The following day, we got up a little bit 5 in the morning. But when we got to the square, the street was already so 6 that we couldn't move. At last we could not get closer to the ceremony. So on the 7 day, we got up at around 3: 30 a.m. When we 8 the Tian'an Men Square, the ceremony began. One hour later, we had a close and 9 view(看) of the flag-raising ceremony. Seeing it gave me a sense of pride(自豪) and it really 10 my heart.

I was lucky to see it in Beijing because most people could only see that on TV. I am proud of being a Chinese student, and I hope our country will be stronger and stronger.
