　　Jack's family live in New York. He takes some Chinese lessons at his school and he is very interested in China. He thinks that China is so far away from his country and is so different. He always wonders how the Chinese people live every day. Do they live the life as his?

　　Last month he came to Beijing with his friends. He met many Chinese in the streets. They were very kind and smiled to him. So he often tried to ask some questions in Chinese.“Excuse me. What's this in Chinese?”or“Excuse me, can you show me the way to the nearest bus stop?”Most people answer him kindly. But sometimes some people didn't understand what he said and could only shake (摇) their heads, smiling. And sometimes it was Jack who didn't understand what the Chinese told him and this time he also smiled and shook his head.

　　Anyway, Jack visited many beautiful places and was very happy. He stayed in Beijing for nearly two weeks and then he went to Xi'an and Shanghai for another three weeks.

　　When he came back to New York, he told everyone about his wonderful trip in China. And he said that he would never forget it all his life.

In the old school buses, there was no air conditioner and every two or three children shared one seat. “ The new buses are sturdy enough so that parents shouldn’t be worried about their children,” said Zhang Zhongli, a father of a student, adding that every child only pays 300 yuan each month, almost the same as before.
