CELEBRATIONS spread across China when Shanghai, the Oriental Pearl（东方明珠）,was given the right to host（主办）the 2010 World Expo（世博会）on December 3.

　　Shanghai won the honour after beating rivals（对手）from Russia, Mexico, Poland and South Korea.

　　“I'm very proud of being Chinese,” said Wang Kaibo, a Senior 2 student of the Middle School Affiliated to Beijing Medical University. “The winning of the expo is a victory, not only for Shanghai residents（居民）, but for the people of the whole Chinese nation.”

　　Bidding（申办）for the expo shows that China is more confident（有信心的）of playing a more important role on the international stage. It is competing for large events and the next one could be the World Cup, Wang said.

　　The World Expo 2010 and the 2008 Beijing Olympics will become the twin shining stars of China's development over the next 10 years, said experts.

　　The World Expo is known as the “Olympics of the economic（经济）, cultural（文化）, scientific and technological fields”. It is usually held every five years and lasts for six months.

　　The Olympics, World Cup and World Expo are considered the three top international events in the world.

　　China is the first developing country to win the expo bid in the event's 151- year history.

　　Not only will it attract more foreign investment（投资）to China, but experts say that the half-year-long exhibition will bring at least 70 million visitors to Shanghai.
