A.为什么留学生需要操作留信认证?
留信认证全称全国留学生信息服务网认证,隶属于北京中科院。①留信认证门槛条件更低,费用更美丽,并且包过,完单周期短,效率高②留信认证虽然不能去国企,但是一般的公司都没有问题,因为国内很多公司连基本的留学生学历认证都不了解。这对于留学生来说,这就比自己光拿一个证书更有说服力,因为留学学历可以在留信网站上进行查询!
B.为什么我们提供的毕业证成绩单具有使用价值？
查询留服认证是国内鉴别留学生海外学历的唯一途径但认证只是个体行为不是所有留学生都操作所以没有办理认证的留学生的学历在国内也是查询不到的他们也仅仅只有一张文凭。所以这时候我们提供的和学校颁发的一模一样的毕业证成绩单就有了使用价值。乌龟和王八贼头贼脑的倒也逗人喜爱日上三竿时山娃总爱窜进自家瓜棚里跟小伙伴们坐着聊天聊着聊着便忍不住往瓜田里逡巡一番抱起一只硕大的西瓜用石刀劈开抑或用拳头砸开每人抱起一大块就啃啃得满嘴满脸猴屁股般的红艳大家一个劲地指着对方吃吃地笑瓜裂得古怪奇形怪状却丝毫不影响瓜味甜丝丝的满嘴生津遍地都是瓜横七竖八的活像掷满了一地的大石块摘走二三只爷爷是断然发现不了的即便发现爷爷也不恼反而教山娃辨认孰熟孰嫩孰甜孰淡水

Oslo
- 1. OSLO NORWAY July 11th & 12th.
- 2. Vigeland Sculpture ParkThis is an 80 acre park set aside in Oslo for the the works of EVigeland - Norway’s most famous sculptor (no I hadn’t heard of him either!). There are hundreds of figures – across a bridge, a fountain, a monolith and hidden in the gardens. He actually had a studio built for him by the government and worked there in the park for the last 20 years of his life.
- 4. Professional models used by Vigeland
- 5. The Fountain
- 6. The Monolith
- 7. • Gates – guess which picture I took and which one Jane took!
- 11. MUSEUMS
- 12. TheFRAM The Polar Expedition Museum featuring the purpose built icebreaker The FRAM.You can see the massive size of the ship. It featured in two Artic expeditions and the Antarticia expedition that Armundsen took to reach the South Pole before Scott.
- 13. The Kon Tiki Museum Features the story ofThor Heyerdahl who sailed the Kon Tiki balsa wood raft across the Pacific Ocean from South America. The original KonTiki is here plus RA II – a papryus raft sailed across the Atlantic
- 14. Viking Long Boat Museum Features threeViking long boats discovered in burial mounds on land. This is the best preserved – all of them over a thousand years old!
- 15. Examples ofViking wood carving
- 17. Oslo National Opera and Ballet House Built in 2001 – an opera house right on the harbour with a big forecourt as a landmark -sounds familiar!You can walk right up over the roof and back down again. Inside it has similar wood panelling as ours as well. Bloody copycats.
- 19. Local Diver
- 22. • Oslo is only 660,000 people but is one of Europe’s fastest growing cities. It’s easy to get around, it’s clean and feels safe and friendly, and has lots of eateries and bars.A perfect introduction to Scandinavia for us before heading off to the Artic. I think we managed to cover most of the major sights in two days, including the Nobel Peace Centre. • Next stop – Longyearbyen to board the Ocean Nova icebreaker and head north!
