wonderful place to take a holiday. On the one hand, more than seventy-five percent of population are of Chinese
descent, so you can simply speak Mandarin most of the time. On the other hand, Singapore is an English-speaking
country.

Later in the 1820s, the British Empire claimed it as a colony（殖民地）. Singapore hasn’t been an independent
country until 1965. From then on, it has become an important port of trade and business between different

Have you ever been to Singapore For many Chinese tourists, this small island in Southeast Asia is a
wonderful place to take a holiday. On the one hand, more than seventy-five percent of population are of Chinese
descent, so you can simply speak Mandarin most of the time. On the other hand, Singapore is an English-speaking
country.
When the ancient Chinese paid their first visit here in the early 14th century, it was still a small seaside city.
Later in the 1820s, the British Empire claimed it as a colony（殖民地）. Singapore hasn’t been an independent
country until 1965. From then on, it has become an important port of trade and business between different
countries.
One great thing about Singapore is that the temperature is almost the same all year round.It seldom drops
below 20℃. It’s warm and wet the whole year. This is because it is so close to the equator（赤道）. So you can
choose to go whenever you like spring, summer, autumn or winter! And, of course, it’s not too far from China.
For those who enjoy the sun and the beach, Singapore is an ideal place.
On the northeast coast of Singapore, Changi Village is far from the noise of central Singapore. The buildings
are modern, but there’s still a village terminal（晚期的）atmosphere. There’s a small, attractive seaside camp site
across the Changi Creek from the bus terminal, where you can watch the planes gliding into Changi airport while
relaxing on the sand.

“Night Safari”. It might seem strange to go to a zoo when it’s dark. But if you’ve ever been to a zoo during the
