Welcome to China, we"ll invite you to eat the real Chinese food-dumplings. In China, there are many
different kinds of food. Some of them are very popular. The real Chinese food is dumplings. Now let"s talk

Everyone in China likes dumplings very much, and there are many different kinds of dumplings. Some have

supermarket. Then you take them home and eat them with vinegar. The Spring Festival is very important in
China. When it comes, we make dumplings; usually we put a coin in a dumpling. If one eats the dumpling with
the coin in it, he or she will be lucky in the year.

becoming stronger and stronger, and our people are richer and richer. We can eat them very often.

After many days of waiting, the Olympic mascots were finally chosen at 8pm on November 11, 2005.
The Olympic mascots are the Olympic torch (火焰), the fish, the panda, the Tibetan gazelle (藏羚羊) and
the swallow (燕子). The panda is named "Jingjing". He was chosen because he makes children smile and
brings the blessing of happiness wherever he goes. He was chosen to show China"s wish to protect nature.
Unlike the well-known panda, the Tibetan antelope is considered much sportier than other chosen animals.
"I can run 70-100 km per hour. So you see, I"m a perfect symbol (象征) of the Olympics-"higher, faster and
stronger"." Says the athlete, whose name is "Yingying".

"Huanhuan" gives out enthusiasm (热情) and best wishes for the Olympics. He will represent ball games.
Many teenagers are surprised that Beijing will have mascots but very excited that they will have more
