(湖北武汉中考改编)Boris, a foreign student in China, often shares his experiences of Chinese culture on his vlogs(视频博客).
In one video, Boris shared how he learned the Chinese word dongxi. He introduced one theory(理论) about how dongxi came to mean “things”. All marketplaces in ancient Chinese cities were set up along a single road that ran from east to west. So when you say “qu mai dongxi”, you are saying, “I’m going to buy things.”

Like many foreigners, Boris once believed that all Chinese could perform kung fu, flying onto roofs and walking over walls. He thought the country was underdeveloped. But after he got a scholarship(奖学金) to study in China in 2019, his view changed. “China has entered a new period, but many people still don’t know too much about it,” Boris said. “That’s why I started to shoot vlogs to share Chinese culture.”
Until now, Boris has posted more than 40 Chinese culture vlogs online. But making these vlogs is not easy. Take reading the poem Second Farewell to

Cambridge by Xu Zhimo as an example.
“I can understand and read every word in the poem,” Boris said. “But to touch readers, I need to use proper feelings while reading.” So he needed to look for much background information.
Though making these vlogs takes lots of time, Boris feels proud that his vlogs have inspired(激励) many people. He wanted to continue bridging the differences between two cultures.
