     John: China is a very interesting country. There are beautiful sceneries and classic constructions. Each city has its own feature. Besides Chinese people are very hospitality.
     约翰：中国是一个非常有意思的国家。这里有美丽的风景，古典的建筑。每个城市都有自己的特点。而且中国人非常热情。

     John: I have deep understanding of this. Although I've only been in China for half a year, I've made many friends. Every time when I visit their home, they will prepare many foods for me and introduce their family members and friends to me. When I plan to have a tourist, they will forwardly ask to be guide for me or introduce the destination.
     约翰：这一点我有很深刻的体会。我来中国仅仅半年，却结交了很多朋友。每次去朋友家他们都会给我准备很多吃的东西，向我介绍他们的家人和朋友。每次我想出去玩的时候，他们都会主动地提出为我做导游或者为我介绍游览的地方。

     Zhang Bo: Did he watch the Olympic Games?
     张博：那么他观看北京奥运会了吗？
     John: Of course, that is a god-given opportunity and he won't miss it.
