Now I’m a college student.Like others, I am very excited about English 1 . This is because we have a language 2 from England. Her name is Irene.Irene takes much interest in our Chinese 3 and likes to share funny things about how foreigners think about China.Her stories and experiences are so 4 that we laugh a lot and loudly in her class. In her cl ass, I learn how and why some foreigners 5 our Chinese culture.Before they come to China,they learn about this big 6 merely from the media. And the western media, as we know, tends to hold biases ( 偏 见 ) against us Chinese people in some aspects, such as living conditions, lifestyle, social 7 , and environments. When they arrive in China for a 8 , what they see is quite different. Chinese people are not as poor as they have 9 . We are friendly in general.Foreign visitors are particularly impressed by the improved traffic conditions and the booming cities 10 the country.
