Ⅰ.阅读理解
Bradley McConachie, a 33-year-old Australian, is actually a student in international relations completing his PhD through Griffith University.He came to Beijing for a cooperative research at Beijing University two years ago.Such an academic life was colorful with a chance offered by the cultural exchanges project, “I'm in China”.
Bradley was lucky to win the most “likes” for his photo story about his life in China and became one of 20 winners to visit locations by the project this summer.All the winners' experiences were filmed to produce a reality show, My Chinese Working Day, which will be broadcast by mid-September.
Bradley was chosen to work as a recreational manager for a Chinese wedding.The film crew took them to many “amazing sites” and the staff at the resort taught them a lot about how to incorporate modern Chinese features while still keeping traditional customs.
“I would have to say two things stick out as the most memorable: the helicopter ride and talking with the staff at the hotel about how they organize weddings here in China,” he said.That was Bradley's first time to be in a helicopter, and he was too absorbed with the “stunning” view of the coastline.
“I think it is so important to show other Australians the different landscapes China has to offer.I think so many Australians, when they think about China, imagine the historical sites of Beijing and the exciting things to see in Shanghai but have no idea about other beautiful places, like Sanya or the many other places people have been taken to in this TV series.It was nice to experience these little touches.I was happy to be a part of that experience!” Bradley said.
