Before you read
A group of British students

What can you do to

to them?Look at the
picture below and make a

I will
I introduce Chinese calligraphy to
these exchange students because
it turns
Chinese characters into an
art form.
Calligraphy has a long history in China and
is still widely practised.
While-reading
Read an online report about some British
-students'exchange visit in Beiiing.
The wonderful exchange visit in Beijing
A group of British students from Woodpark School in London are visiting
Yangguang Junior High School.
"I was very nervous at first,"says Sarah."However,my host family are really
friendly.I'm really grateful that they let me stay in their home.I love Chinese
5 food and enjoy every meal I have with my host family.I've learnt to use
chopsticks,and I can speak a little Chinese!"
The students spend the weekdays studying with Chinese students.At the
weekend,they go on tours with their host families around Beijing and visit
places of interest,such as the Great Wall,the Summer Palace and the National
10 Museum.
"I've watched videos about the Great Wall before,but seeing it in person is
definitely an unforgettable experience!"says Lisa."The wall snakes its way
through the mountains of north China for thousands of kilometres.The Great
Wall is no doubt one of the most amazing achievements in human history!

The students also spend time learning about Chinese culture.They get to try
different things for themselves.
"It's been a fantastic experience so far,"says Eric."I've learnt a bit of tai chi,and
I really enjoy it.The teachers have introduced us to Chinese painting as well.
The way of painting is very interesting.It's quite different from what I've learnt
20
in my art classes back home.We dip the brush in black ink,and paint on a
special kind of paper,called Xuan paper.I haven't had much success yet,but I'll
keep trying."
"I've made many new friends,"says Sarah."I plan to keep in touch with them
when I return home.We'll see one another soon because they'll come over to
25
the UK for the second part of the exchange next month.I can't wait!"
