A grandma, Xu Xiuzhen, became famous for videos of her talking with foreigners on the Internet. In these videos, she speaks different languages with them. Grandma Xu has worked as a tour guide and vendor(摊贩) in Yangshuo, a county in Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region (自治区) since 1998. Grandma Xu left junior school in the third grade. To make a living, she began to learn different languages to encourage more foreigners to buy things. Over the past twenty years, Grandma Xu has taught herself 11 foreign languages, including English, Spanish, Japanese and Korean. It makes her popular, and her excellent language skills have also made it easier for her to communicate with foreign tourists.
Grandma Xu said she learnt how to pronounce the words from different foreigners first and then she memorised them. She would repeat the words in her head before going to bed and after waking up. Gradually, her hard work made her talk with foreigners better and better.
Grandma Xu has also become one of the busiest tour guides in Yangshuo. Her popularity draws a large crowd of tourists every day, especially foreign visitors who come to meet the special guide out of admiration. "More and more foreign tourists are coming to Yangshuo, and I hope they will feel at home here with my help," she said.
Favorite Food
Max:I really love Indian curries(咖喱). My dad always makes curry using chicken or beef and onions and yogurt. We have it with rice. Some people have Indian bread with their curry, but I don't like it at all. In our country, we eat curries three times a day. We can't live without curries. |
Maria: I'm a vegetarian(素食者), and I eat at least five kinds of vegetables every day.One of my favorite dishes is carrot soup. It's very good for my health, and it's quick and easy to make. I just need carrots, onions and potatoes and juice from an orange. When I serve the soup, I put cheese on top, and I eat it with bread. |
