I LOVE CHINESEI
David Brown is a 15-year-old boy from the UK. This summer he is studying Chinese in a summer camp in Gansu Province. This is what he told our interviewer.
What do you think of Gansu?
Well, I think it's fantastic. Summer is the best season to visit Gansu. I enjoy the pleasant weather a lot. Gansu also has many pretty views with a long history.
Is there anything else you especially like about it?
Yes, the friendly people and delicious foods.
When we were in Tianshui City 3 days ago, we tried malatang, a traditional spicy hot pot dish. I like it a lot. Beef noodles and niangpizi are also my favorites. I haven't tried huidouzi. But it seems very tasty.
Where are you staying in Gansu?
I'm staying with some very nice families in different cities in Gansu. That's quite helpful for learning Chinese and experiencing the life and culture here. That's why I've chosen home-stay.
Do you like learning Chinese?
I enjoy learning Chinese because it's interesting and has a rich history. Chinese characters are beautiful, and the language offers many chances. Being able to speak Chinese will be very helpful in the future. I want to be a Chinese teacher when I'm older.
