吉林省松原市宁江区一中2019年九年级英语第二次模拟考试试卷
Do foreigners find online shopping fun or painful? Some of my foreign friends have shared their online shopping stories with me.
Ari James(the US)
One of the first things I was told about China is Taobao. When I arrived in Nanjing, it didn't take me a long time to start buying things from Taobao. I bought bags, shoes and many other things.
Christine(Australia)
I've been shopping online for nearly three years. Now I'm completely in love with Taobao. I can find almost everything I want on it. It took me a long time to get used to online shopping, since most online shops serve Chinese people. But as soon as I got the knack(诀窍), online shopping became quite easy.
Barbara Gordon(the US)
I've only used Taobao a few times. Compared with website like Amazon, Taobao is worse. You have to be very careful about what you will buy in order to avoid scams(诈骗). If Taobao can try harder to fight against online scams, it'll be more successful.
Lindy(Canada)
I can't stop shopping on Taobao! I often search for what I want through Taobao of a whole day! I'm so crazy about traditional Chinese gifts. I won't miss this year's shopping day.

An American in Beijing Lives His Chinese Dream
Wearing his bright red armband (袖章) and speaking fluent Mandarin (普通话), 62-year-old Terry could be taken for any regular Chinese man from a distance.
His Chinese name is Gao Tianrui. He became interested in Chinese culture as a teenager when he read the Tao Te Ching by Laozi. At 18, he took a ship to Taiwan to learn Chinese. On the ship the captain advised him to have a Chinese name." He named me Gao Tianrui, based on the pronunciation (发音) of my English name," he said. Then he first visited Beijng in 1987 on business.
Gao Tianrui lives in a Siheyuan with other three families. His neighbors are very helpful and friendly. Gao Tianrui once didn't know much about Chinese living habits and his neighbors helped him to overcome difficulties. Gradually, he could speak Chinese fluently.
Having lived in Beijing for more than 20 years, Gao Tianrui has also finally achieved his Chinese dream: becoming a public security (安全) volunteer. Life as a"Xicheng Dama" has even made him an' online celebrity. Xicheng Dama is a club for volunteers, usually women in late middle-age, who roam (漫步) the streets of downtown at Beijing's Xicheng district. And now Gao Tianrui has joined their club.
"I like helping others", he said. "I live in the Siheyuan and my neighbors and I usually help each other…This is where I live, where my friends are and where I call home."
