📖 Reading Passage
Last summer, I visited Florence, which is one of the most beautiful cities in Italy. The city, which is famous for its art and architecture, attracts millions of tourists every year. I stayed with a family who owned a small guesthouse near the center. The owner, whose wife cooked delicious meals, told me many stories about the city’s history.
One day, I met a student who was studying art at the university. She took me to a museum that had an exhibition of Renaissance paintings. The museum, which was built in the 18th century, was full of amazing works. Later, we walked through the square where many artists were painting and selling their work.
I will never forget the evening when we sat by the river and watched the sunset. Florence is a place that I want to visit again because it gave me memories which I will always treasure.
