3# A Modern Building
Hey, this is Jessie from China. I plan to post an article on italki every day. And this is the third article. Wish I can insist on it！
Today I'm going to introduce a modern building in Shanghai called the Oriental Pearl TV Tower, which stands opposite to the Bund on the west bank. It was the tallest building in Shanghai when I was a primary school student. Nowadays, however, the height of many other buildings has exceeded it, like Shanghai Center and the Global Financial Center.
Literally, since it is a TV tower, it is used for broadcasting and TV transmisissons. Besides, it is also a combination of sightseeing, shopping, recreation and accomodation. Shanghai Urban Development Exhibition Hall is on the ground floor, which is a famous historical museum.
What attracts me most is the revolving restaurant on the top of the Oriental Pearl TV Tower, which has spetacular views of the city. It's definately the best vantage point in Shanghai because there are no walls, only huge windows, so you can look out over the city in any direction. The more awesome thing is that you can get 50 percent off on your birthday for dinner in the revolving restaurant. I believe it will be a very memorible experience to celebrate your birthday ther.So I'd recommend anyone who visits Shanghai to go there and experience the view.
Thank you!

You wrote an excellent text, congrats! The words in yellow were misspellings, but remember, we all make a few errors. I have a question. What was your average English test level in reading, writing, speaking and listening? I would assume it was close to the Cambridge C1 level. That pretty high. However, you can do the C2 with a little more work. And guess what. With either a C1 or C2, you have the chance to study abroad, where you English will shine.
