China and Western countries may have different ideas about certain animals, but when it comes to pigs, we have reached an agreement-ugly, lazy, stupid and shameless. But the truth is that pigs do have some finer qualities (品质). Science long ago proved that pigs aren’t stupid at all. A research shows pigs are mentally (精神土地) and socially similar to dogs. They like to play. They have good long-term memories. And they know the difference between those who treat them well and those who don’t.

There are lovable pig characters in cartoon’s, too. Peppa Pig《小猪佩奇》,for example, a television series (连续剧) from the UK that began in 2004, has now become one of the most popular cartoons in 180 countries. The four members in the cartoon’s pig family teach children around the world about love, friendship and the value of family. In China, McDull (麦兜), a young pig who works hard for his dreams even though he fails, has been a popular cartoon character since 2001.

I've always been very interested in the beauty of China’s culture and history. So when one of my friends moved to Beijing from the UK.It was the perfect excuse to visit.

My friend Tony and I had expected a big city filled with buildings and busy streets. But when we arrived,we were surprised.

The first thing that surprised us was the space. Beijing is really huge.Its wide streets and green spaces made every area feel less crowded(拥挤的).Everywhere we looked,there were people cleaning and tidying.It really gave off national pride.

We were worried that few people would speak English in Beijing.But we found that it was common for Chinese people to know a few words of English.and many knew much more.

But the most exciting part of our visit was riding around in the sunshine on bicycles—we felt very Chinese as we travelled around the city on shared bikes.

It was great to experience Beijing in person. This was my first visit to China. but certainly not my last.
