Chinese A-Z (1)

Throughout A-Z, you will hopefully be able to gain insight into the environment and culture and general feel of China as a bonus. I hope you enjoy. There may be second rounds.


'A' stands for Chinese Ambitious Recruiter

Recruiting 20 beauticians, 15 barbers, 10 stylists, etc!

'B' stands for Chinese Basketball Competition


Crowd shot.

'C' stands for Chinese Cracked Melon Seed Eater

Storekeeper eats cracked melon seed in clothing market.

'D'
stands for Chinese Dining Hall

Many of these available on campus - Though -> Lunchtime over by 12:00pm || Dinner time over by 6:00pm

'E' stands for Chinese Etiquette

Explanation required: Abe was reading the description of the lake (to the right), and red jacket lady shoves in front of him to take a photo. HAHAHA

'F' stands for Chinese Fruit Seller

Fruit seller sells pineapple and watermelon for 1 kuai a stick.

'G' stands for Chinese Grade 1 Book

Back of workbook includes rules outlining the '2 musts', '2 must nots', '4 shoulds' and '4 should nots'. Highlight: "(1) Do not drink tap water (2) Do not eat unclean foods (3) Do not spit (4) Do not throw fruit skins carelessly"

'H' stands for Chinese History Preservation

In Yu Yuan gardens. The sign says: "Take good care of cultural relic. Don't climb up an antique." Which makes perfect grammatical sense~
