Introduce Singapore Briefly
First impression (印象) of Singapore
Merlion 鱼尾狮
It is regarded as the symbolize of STB (Singapore Tourism Board), first appeared in 1964.
And it turned Singapore's symbol very quickly.
It is created by the Van Kleef aquarium's governor named Fraser Brunner.
新加坡的原意为“狮城”。据马来史籍记载，公元1324年左右，苏门答腊的一个王子乘船到达此岛，在现今的新加坡河口无意中发现一头动物形若狮子，于是把这座小岛取名Singapore。“Singa“就是狮子的意思，“Pore”则代表城市，而狮子具有勇猛、雄健的特征，故以此作为地名，这就是新加坡 “狮城” 的来历 。

On the one hand, more than three quarters of the population are Chinese, so you can simply speak Putonghua a lot of the time. On the other hand, Singapore is an English-speaking country, so its also a good place to practice your English!

对于很多中国人来说,这个东南亚的小岛

Have you ever tried Chinese food outside of China? Maybe you fear that you won’t be able to find anything good to eat when you travel. In Singapore, however, you'll find a lot of food from China; you wont have any problem getting rice, noodles or dumplings. Singapore is also an excellent place to try new food. Whether you like Indian food, Western food or Japanese food, you’ll find it all in Singapore!

Most large cities have zoos, but have you ever been to a zoo at night? Singapore has a Night Safari. It might seem strange to go to a zoo when it’s dark. However, if you go to see lions, tigers or foxes during the daytime, they’ll probably be asleep! A lot of animals only wake up at night, so this is the best time to watch them. At the Night Safari, you can watch these animals in a more natural environment than in a normal zoo.

One great thing about Singapore is that the temperature is almost the same all year round. This is because the island is so close to the equator. So you can choose to go whenever you like — spring, summer, autumn or winter. And, of course, it’s not too far from China!
