I'm Mike Trent,a businessman from the United States.I have lived in China for more than seven
yeas.Like many foreigners,I only knew two words of Chinese(“hello'”and“thank you")when I
came to China in 2015.As you can probably guess,my life was difficult for a while after I arrived.
Simple tasks like ordering food or taking a taxi were quite difficult for me.
I knew I had to learn more Chinese,so I signed up for a class.My teacher was very helpful,
although I didn't learn enough to have a real conversation.Later I studied on my own as well,but my
progress was still slow.I became very frustrated(沮丧t的).
Finally,I found that the best way to learn Chinese is to make friends with native (
speakers and spend time with them.Around this time,I started playing in a band with a Chinese woman
who became one of my best friends in Beijing.I learned a lot of Chinese by hanging out with her.
7
For example,she taught me a lot of words about music,such as“melody(旋律)”.She learned a
lot of English from me in retumn,so it was a good way to exchange language and culture.She is still one
of my best friends and we talk to each other nearly every day.
Now I've learned enough Chinese to take care of complex tasks,such as booking train
tickets and negotiating(谈判)with my business partners.
