A total solar eclipse, one of the most spectacular in the 21st century, took place at about 9 a.m. on July 22, 2009, and our place was the best place to observe it.

In the morning, we had an early breakfast, my father said he would take me to see the solar eclipse, and told me to put on my sunglasses, I was curious about what an eclipse was. Dad told me: "Solar eclipse is a phenomenon in which the sun is covered by the moon. During its orbit around the earth, the moon sometimes comes to the middle of the sun and the earth, when the moon's shadow falls on the earth's surface, observers located in the shadow will see the sun being covered by the moon, which is a solar eclipse." It is said that a rare total solar eclipse can be seen in China today. My father also went online to show me the relevant information and pictures, which made me grow a lot of knowledge.

At about 9:30 our family came to the open grass in the neighborhood and looked up at the sun, but unfortunately the sun was covered by dark clouds. Mom suggested going to the top of the 18th floor to have a look. Luckily, there is an elevator, all of a sudden to the 18th floor. Looking at the sun surrounded by layers of dark clouds, we were a little disappointed. After waiting for a while, the dark clouds dispersed. Then we went to the balcony to take a look at the sun, which was round in the past, but it was one half less! Eclipse, it's really a solar eclipse, I was so excited that I was going to jump up and down, I have to know that it takes two to three hundred years for a solar eclipse to appear in the same place, gosh, I actually saw a total solar eclipse before I was twelve years old, which is an amazing thing!

Look, the sun is shrinking little by little. First it changed into a small boat, then into a willow brow, and finally there was only a bottom left, and the sky suddenly darkened, and everything seemed so mysterious.

Then, the sun slowly became bigger and rounded, and the sky began to recover to the way it used to be. ( Fang Yuanwen
