Ladies and gentlemen,Because of the pandemic, many of you have not been able to visit China for some time. What can we do about it? I would suggest, if you want to visit the Forbidden City, why not take a 3D virtual tour to feast your eyes? If you crave Chinese food, there are so many food blogs with luring pictures and videos that can indulge your eyes, though not your stomach. If you miss the shopping spree at Beijing’s Silk Market, try live streaming shopping that can deliver whatever you buy right to your doorstep. If you want to practice your Chinese language skills with native Chinese, you can find help at interactive learning apps, with both one-on-one learning and group lessons readily available. But please keep in mind, don’t share your credit card password with strangers.
疫情原因，很多美国朋友一时半会儿还去不了中国，怎么办呢？如果想去故宫转转，可以登录他们的3D全景虚拟漫游，一饱眼福；想吃中国美食，可以上许许多多的中国美食博主网站，望梅止渴；想去北京秀水街逛店购物，可以上电商直播平台，挑中了，让他们给你快递过来；想找中国朋友交流练汉语，可以登录交互式网站社区，可以一对一，也可以三五成群，但要注意哦，不要告诉别人你的信用卡密码。
Chairman Mao Zedong once said, he who has never been to the Great Wall is not a true man. When the pandemic is over, I would highly recommend you to visit China in person. Here are some tips: don’t forget to have your phone with you wherever you go, because scanning QR codes is more convenient when taking buses, high-speed trains, planes, or ships, or just riding a shared bike. You will also need your driver’s license, because you can help yourself to rent a shared new-energy car on the street. Don’t take with you big cash notes, because from street vendors to shopping malls, people prefer e-payment, and you had better have payment apps ready in your phone. You probably can’t get change if you pay by cash. Last but not least, I don’t recommend you Americans to go to Beijing Universal Studios or Shanghai Disneyland. There are simply too many Chinese people!
*说，不到长城非好汉。疫情过后，大家还是要亲自去中国走走看看。我给几个温馨提示：别忘带手机，因为在中国无论乘公交、高铁、飞机、轮船，还是骑共享单车，用手机扫码更方便快捷；还要带上驾照，路边有自助的共享新能源汽车能随时带你去想去的地方；上街购物不要带大额钞票，因为许多商店摊位都用电子支付，收纸币，但没法儿找零，所以最好在去之前下载个电子支付APP；建议你们美国人就不要去北京环球影城和上海迪士尼凑热闹了，因为那里中国人实在太多了！
