The taste of the chocolate can vary in its different shape and temperature. Here is a bar of dark chocolate with a flavour of almond and coconut. I ate the whole piece of chocolate. In the beginning, I can feel the flavour of cocoa, a little bit bitter but with aroma; then when I started to chew it, the almond flavour came; finally, I can taste more shredded coconut flakes. By tasting, I experienced not only the flouver of the cholocate but also the texture. The texture of the chocolate is an entirely different attribute, from smooth to coarse. Overall, accompanied with increasing temperature, the flavour of cocoa was becoming stronger and stronger.

Beauty Museum: ayalysis of movement of water before & during the rain

The courtyard of the Beauty Musuem is a large green roof and its underneath is rooms of the muesum. Normally, the green area keeps moisture, and when rain comes, the rainwater flows from the lawn to the lower rain garden. Also, the elevation of the museum is a bit lower than Main Mall, so the rainwater flows from the upper area of Main Mall to lower area around the musuem. The swale guides the water flow into the rain garden.
