If you go to another country, what kinds of things would you buy? Would you buy some beautiful clothes in France, or a watch in Switzerland? No matter what you may buy, you might probably think those products were made in those countries. However, you could be wrong. Kang Jian is a 17-year-old student from Shanghai. Last year he went to visit his aunt and uncle in San Francisco.

Toys are not the only things made in China. “I wanted to buy a pair of basketball shoes,” he explains. “ But I had to visit five or six stores before finding a pair made in America! ” He realized that Americans can hardly avoid buying products made in China. “ In fact, ” he continues, “there are so many things made in China — footballs, handbags, pet food, mobile phones, and etc. Even American flags are made in China!” Kang Jian thinks it’s great that China is so good at making these things.
