A gentle breeze blew through Jennifer’s hair. The golden red sun was  1  . She was on the beach, looking up at the fiery ball. She could hear nothing but the waves and the  2  flying up in the sky.

For many students in Beijing, Mr. Obama symbolizes all that is possible in the United States. He's a popular winner here, seen as a self-made man who has made it to the top.

"I think he is very charming, and a president who can create a new era(时代),"said Zhang Wei, a university student. "I like him very much and most of my friends do too."

Ni Weibo, another university student, agrees. "Sino-U.S. Relations still need more cooperation, "she said. "I think he will help take it to a new era."
