    Dear Student, thank you for submitting your writing task.  Unfortunately, it has too many similarities with  [http://www.detail-online.com/article/monumental-wickerwork-city-museum-in-chengdu-29420/].  This means I wasn’t able to get a clear idea of your writing abilities, and  have not been able to give you a grade.

    A Monumental Wickerwork located in the heart of Chengdu, a  western Chinese metropolis of 14 million people, Tianfu Square has been  renovated and upgraded as the most visited city sightseeing. With an area about  the size of twelve soccer fields, it is considered the largest urban square  in the region. A huge museum of science dominates the north side; the city’s  biggest thoroughfares go past south of the square. Situated on the west side,  the architects of the new city museum are monumental. Its construction covers  an area of 65,000m², including departments of natural history, national  history and customs, an 800-seat hall for Chinese shadow puppetry, as well as  a 1,000m² area for special exhibitions. The new building did not become a  forbidding block. What make its difference are the distinct folds in the  building’s curvature and its copper-clad façades. The access areas of the  museum are located on its east side. They open onto the square with a glazed  façade sheltered from the sun by copper webbing. The windowless exhibition  rooms are on the closed west face of the building, which is clad with folded  copper sheeting in a unique wickerwork aesthetic. A gateway through the  building%% links Tianfu Square with the Huangcheng Mosque, one of Southwest  China’s largest Muslim places of worship. The resulting roofed-in free space  is used in many ways. Museum halls inside the building are 30-metre deep,  support-free. In order to absorb the shocks of an earthquake, the new  construction goes as deeply as 24 meters under the ground, resting in a  gigantic concrete box set into the earth for decoupling seismic activity. The  façade structure – lightly veiled on the east side, completely closed to the  west – follows the principles of the Chinese philosophy of feng-shui, which  state that west-facing buildings bring bad luck. Moreover, it also works with  the local climate conditions and the direct sunlight. The webbing and  sheeting used consist of 90% recycled copper. The alloy was chosen so that  the sheeting would discolor as little as possible in some-degree polluted  air.
