　 My name is Leo. I’m from Australia, and I　 46 in China for two years. I teach in Harbin, the 　　47 　 of Heilongjiang Province. This is an interesting city　 48 　a very colorful history. There　 49 　 some European influence in the city, and some of the old buildings in Harbin are in Russian style.

Since I　 50 　 to China. I’ve been leaning a lot about my family history. Although I’m 　 51 　, My family is Jewish. So it was very interesting　 52 　 to learn that a lot of Jews came to live in Harbin many years ago. My parents were so　 53 　 when I told them about this.　 54 　, the first Jews probably came to Kaifeng more than a thousand years ago and 　 55 by the Song Emperor.

When I lived in Australia, I studied history at school but we usually studied Australian or western history. 　　56 　, when I heard that I was going to work in China, I started 　　57 　Chinese history. I’ve been studying for over two years now. My friends in Australia said 　　58 Chinese history was very hard to understand , but I don’t really agree . I think if you study hard, you　 59 　 understand any culture. For a foreigner like me,　 60 　I learn about Chinese history, the more I enjoy living in China.
