		<description><![CDATA[Shanghai is a large Chinese city with many Western features. When you are travelling in China, if you just yearn for New York or Paris, then Shanghai is the place to go. Otherwise you don&#8217;t want to spend more than two days there.
The one must-see attraction in Shanghai is the Shanghai Museum. There is nothing [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[2003年是我在中国的第一年，作为外籍教师教英语。圣诞节时我没有回家。在放假时我和我的几个学生去了上海。他们说请我与他们一起过中国的春节。但是在我去之前我还不知道春节到底是什么。我仅仅知道我在美国的华侨朋友为了庆祝春节，举行了一场大型聚会。
在中国的春节，仿佛每顿饭都是一个大聚会。每顿饭我都吃得不能再吃，然后被劝着再吃些。早餐，午餐都吃得很撑，然后晚上，我还没有饿呢，就已经该吃晚饭了。这样周复一周吃下去。
但是我发现了春节不仅仅是聚会。好像每个家庭都有很多的亲戚朋友。每天都高朋满座。我心里在想，中国实行了计划生育，怎么还有这么多的亲戚。在我老家过节日时很少有亲戚过来看我们。也许是因为他们的家都离我们那里很远。在中国通常有好几代人都住的很近。
总的来说我很喜欢在中国过年。不光是品尝美味佳肴，而且感受到了很浓郁的家庭氛围。我以后希望每年都可以在中国过春节。

		<description><![CDATA[一个人长住在异地会越来越失去他原有文化的特点，但永远也不会变成异域文化背景的人。然而，长时间的异域生活又会使他与原有文化圈中的人的认同感改变。这种人不属于任何种文化，而成为多元文化背景的人。他的交际范围也更多在有多元文化元素的人群之中。这样才更容易彼此沟通，因为一般来说单之文化的人对其他文化具有较强的排斥性。
这种现象很符合追求异国情调的人的理想。但是有的人只是被迫去适应新的文化。他们得彻底把自己投入外乡的文化。他们也很可能在当地人眼里总算是二等公民。
但是跨国生活也有它的优点。比如对建立客观理性的思维模式来说，了解两种文化是很有用的。跨国生活也比较灵活。比如说如果在一个国家发生战争，灾害，经济或政治倒退，总会有其它的选择。
对落户来说，跨国生活不让时常与亲戚交往。只要基本家庭在一起，这个不便不算太大。由于现代技术，国际交通不再有特别大的经济阻碍。如果一年回家一两次不够的话，也许你与家长之间的关系总之太受约束的。父母真的受不了你的缺席他们只好也过来落户。

Last winter when I went it was warm enough to wear shorts and a t-shirt, but swimming was not popular due to the chilly water. There is a long row of new luxury resorts, many [...]]]></description>

Foreigners are a much more common sight here as it is a hub of backpackers who travel across Sichuan. When I visited this summer there were many English-speaking youths waiting [...]]]></description>

At the Nature Reserve there is nowhere to stay, so the bus waits for you while you visit. Huanglong is much smaller than Jiuzhaigou, about four kilometers long, but certainly equally [...]]]></description>
