Currently Mandarin scholarship students must be enrolled for 12 contact hours per week (This will increase to 15 hours after August 31 2008). I have 8 hours of one-on-one classes, 2 hours language exchange and I complete a cultural activity once a week, such as visiting a museum. Below is an example of my homework for a cultural activity.
On Thursday I went to Ju Ming Museum.
The sculpture park is located in beautiful Jin Shan (金山), Taipei County.
Ju Ming is a very famous artist. He is best known for his sculptures, created in bronze, clay and wood, but he is also a painter.
He started working on the 11 hectare museum/gallery/park almost twenty years ago. It finally opened in 1999.
Ju was born in a small Miaoli County town in central Taiwan. When he was young he worked as a temple artist specializing in woodcarving. He was taught by some very famous Taiwanese artists and has since been internationally recognized. His work has been displayed in France, Japan, Hong Kong, Canada, Germany, U.S.A., Singapore etc.

朱銘博物館
我二零零八年四月星期四去了朱銘博物館。
朱銘博物館的地址是台北縣金山鄉西勢湖2號。
我覺得金山很美麗。
朱銘是藝術家。 他會創作雕刻品，也會畫畫。他很有名。
我很喜歡朱銘博物館， 我帶來了我的照相機，所以我拍很多照片。
我覺得朱銘博物館很特別。
他的作品去了加拿大，法國，香港， 日本，德國，美國， 新加坡 etc。
