Warming up
This is a collection of terracotta sculptures of soldiers. They are said to depict the armies
of the first Chinese emperor, Qin
Shi Huang. The army was discovered
in the emperor’s mausoleum
（陵墓） located in Shaanxi Province. It is believed that the army was intended to protect Qin Shi Huang in the afterlife.
The Terracotta Army
This is an east-west fortification(防御工事) built along the historical northern borders
of China. It was intended as a
form of protection against
attacks from nomads（游牧民）
and other warring groups. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site（联合国教科文组织世界遗产）.
The Great Wall
“Bird’s Nest” is actually the nickname of the Beijing National Stadium. It was built
specifically to be used for the
2008 Summer Olympics and
Paralympics. It is now used as
a sports stadium for other large events.
The Bird’s Nest
The Forbidden City, also called the Palace Museum, houses the imperial collections of

Chinese Food in Western Countries
Many people in Western countries love Chinese food, but the food they eat is very different from the food in China. Chinese food was brought to the US in the 19th century by Chinese immigrants（移民）. These immigrants made Chinese food using their traditional recipes（食谱）, but
Culture Focus
they added local ingredients（材料）. They also changed the taste of the food to make it more interesting to American customers. This same thing happened in other Western countries like Australia. Later, new groups of Chinese immigrants added new dishes to the Chinese food found in Western countries. Nowadays, Chinese food is one of the most popular kinds of cuisine in Western countries.

About Singapore:
Singapore is a very small island just north of the equator(赤道), at the tip of the Malaysian Peninsula(马来西亚半岛). Some people have nicknamed it “The Little Red Dot” because it is so small that it often just appears as a little red dot on the map. It was originally part of the Federation of Malaysia but gained independence in 1965.
Culture Focus
“The Little Red Dot”
It has a multi-racial(多种族的) population, with the Chinese being the largest group, followed by Malays and Indians. Singapore is home to the world’s largest observation wheel (the Singapore Flyer), the world’s largest aquarium (S.E.A. Aquarium), and the first wildlife night park (Night Safari).
