Zhang Tianming has been thinking about his travel plans the last couple days. His parents hope that he'll go visit their hometown Nanjing. Zhang Tianming also very much wants to be Lisa’s tour guide and take her to a few places in China. Beside Nanjing, where should they go? In order to decide on the itinerary he takes out a map of China and begins to study it.Lesson 10+ 'P BIMG2rp sae. 363 Zhang Tianming: Lisa: Zhang Tianming: Lisa: Zhang Tianming: Lisa: Zhang Tianming: Lisa: Zhang Tianming: Lisa: Zhang Tianming: Zhang Tianming: Lisa: Zhang Tianming: Lisa, come take a look at this map of China and see where we want to g0. Look at the map? Great idea. I want to learn about Chinese geography. I know so little about Chinese geography. ‘We'll go to Nanjing, my parents’ hometown first. .. Here, in southeastern China. Where do you want to go next? This is Harbin, isn’t it? Let’s go to Harbin, How come you want to go from the Southeast all the way to the extreme North? Yesterday on TV there was a program about Harbin’s ice lanterns. They were really beautiful. Ice lanterns are nice, but it’s winter now. It’s really cold there. Let’s go in the summer. OK. We won't go to the North. Then let’s take a train to the West. I hear that Xinjiang is a very special place. Xinjiang is in the Northwest. It starts to get cold in October. Now is not a good time to go. Besides, trains take too long. Let’s go next time. You say trains take too long. Then boats are out, right? Otherwise I'd really like to take a boat from east to west to look at the landscape along the Yangtze or the Yellow River. Most of China’s rivers flow from the west to the east. If you take a boat from east to west, it'll take an even longer time. Why do most of China’s rivers flow from the west to the east? Because China’s western part is a plateau. The world’s tallest mountain is there. In the eastern part there are plains and oceans. It seems that all the big cities are by the sea or not too far away from it, See, in the North are Beijing and Tianjin. In the Southeast are Shanghai and Nanjing. In the South are Guangzhou and Shenzhen. What you say is correct. China’s population is concentrated along the coast. In the Southwest there are many tall mountains and plateaus. In the Northwest there are many deserts. The natural conditions are not very good. Therefore, the population is sparse. Ithink China's topography is a little like America’s. ‘What you said makes sense. Also, the latitude is almost the same and s0 is the land area, but China’s population is more than four times364 integrated Chinese - Level 2 Part 1 - Textbook Lisa: Zhang Tianming: Lisa: Zhang Tianming: Lisa: Zhang Tianming: Lisa: Zhang Tianming: terrain Talk about the factors that help me select travel destination that of America’s. I hear that during holidays or school breaks there are huge crowds in all the scenic areas. Really? Luckily, when we go, students will still be in school and it won't be around any major holidays. China is so big. Our break is so short. Where should we go? I think Yunnan is the best place to go. Where is Yunnan? Oh, I found it, Ie’s here, It's a province in the Southwest. Is it cold in winter? : Some places in Yunnan are spring-like year round. No matter when You go, it’s not too cold or too hot. Theard on TV that Yunnan has beautiful scenery and many ethnic minorities. It’s a great place to visit, It’s decided then. We'll go to Yunnan, Professor Zhang, thank you for today’s geography lesson, OK, OK. Stop being so glib SELF-ASSESSMENT How well an you do these things?
