What represents（代表） China?
China has a long history of over 5,000 years. What could represent China in your mind?
The Great Wall represents China in my eyes. It is about 21,000 kilometers long and over 2,000 years old. There is a famous Chinese saying, "He who does not reach the Great Wall is not a true man（不到长城非好汉）. " I really hope I can visit the fantastic place in the future! Di Xinran, Shenzhen |
In my opinion, the colour red can represent China. We can see red every day in our lives, such as at weddings（婚礼）, New Year, Lantern Festival and so on. But more importantly, red is the colour of the national flag of our country. Wang Jingqi, Dalian |
I think the dragon is the symbol of China. We Chinese always see ourselves as "descendants of the dragon （龙的传人）". The dragon is a magic al animal. It stands for power in China. Parents hope we can become as successful as "dragons". MaoZhanglinxi, Hefei |
China is a country. But the word also means porcelain （瓷器）. I think porcelain is the symbol of China. In the past, Chinese porcelain was sold abroad. China was called "the nation of porcelain". The invention of porcelain has greatly influenced the world. Xiong Anni, Nanjing |
In China, dumplings represents happiness and reunion （团圆）. Families in China always get together and make dumplings during festivals. When they make dumplings, they talk and laugh. The food brings them happiness. LiQinrui, Tianjin |
