1) Type 1 writing: Thursday was Veteran's Day. What does Veteran's Day mean to you? Does China have Veteran's Day? If so, what are the traditions or things associated with Veteran's Day? For example, in America we talk a lot about how the soldiers died protecting our freedom. We sometimes go to military cemeteries, and we honor the soldiers we know.
2) World War I – known at the time as “The Great War” - officially ended when the Treaty of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919, in the Palace of Versailles outside the town of Versailles, France. However, fighting ceased seven months earlier when an armistice, or temporary cessation of hostilities, between the Allied nations and Germany went into effect on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. For that reason, November 11, 1918, is generally regarded as the end of “the war to end all wars.”
