B
Stronger and better than ever before!
Now more and more people from both home and abroad like traveling in China. People from different countries talk about what China means to them. What does China mean to them? Let's find out what the three students have to say.
① During my summer vacation, I visited many China's beautiful places. The most inspiring one was Tsinghua University. There, I could feel the energy of the students. It was great to see them studying to build a better future. China is energetic not only in education but also in culture, technology(技术), sports and even tourism(旅游业). As a Chinese student, I'm ready to do my part to make our country even better.
② I think China is amazing. I was there in 2012, 2018 and 2019. Every time I visit, I see big changes. New buildings are always going up, and things are getting better. The thing I like most is how easy it is to pay for things using Alipay or WeChat on your phone. You can also order food and other services online. Public transportation(公共交通) is also really great. Life in China is getting easier and easier.
③ When I traveled to Southeast Asia, I found that people from other countries are friendlier now to Chinese people. In the past, some people looked down on China. This made me see that China has become stronger in the world's eyes. I also feel that China is strong in education(教育). With things like nine-year compulsory(义务) education, more people can go to school. That helps make a better future for everyone.
