Simon, a 28-year-old German student, rode 5,800 kilometers in China for his trip blog (博客). He wanted to learn about the Chinese Dream.
“What's your Chinese Dream?” This is the question he asked every stranger he met on his 100-day trip.
Simon came to China for the first time in 2011. After a year in China, he was able to speak Chinese. Because of his interest in Chinese culture, he went to Zhejiang University in 2017.
Simon learned “Chinese Dream” in 2013, and now it has become one of the hottest words in China. To learn the true meaning of it among Chinese people, he started his trip in May 2018.
Simon believes that riding across China is natural. And it is also environmentally friendly (环保的). During his trip, he found that people in the cities usually follow their hearts. What's more, older generation (一代) of Chinese cares more about social stability (社会的稳定) but the young generation cares more about education and environment.
“People look for their ways to make their dreams come true. They all believe that a strong country is the most important.” Simon said.

In the year of 2020, the coronavirus（新冠病毒）out broke（爆发）all over the world. A lot of people suffered from（遭受……折磨）a fever or a cough. Don't be afraid. Here is some advice to help you protect yourself.
Wash your hands. You need to wash your hands with soap and water before you eat, after you use the toilet, and after you touch animals, because your hands may carry viruses (病毒). Cover your nose and mouth. When someone sneezes（打喷嚏）or coughs，the viruses can travel as far as one meter through the air，so you'd better stand a proper distance while talking to someone who has a cold. And always cover your mouth and nose with a piece of paper when you sneeze or cough，and then clean your hands. Wear a mask(口罩). Some doctors say that masks can stop the virus as much as 80%, but if you don't wash your hands often, it's no use wearing a mask. So it's necessary to wear the mask in the groups of people.
Do sports often. Exercises will help make your body strong enough to resist（抵抗）the virus.

Last summer my family went camping by a lake in the countryside. There we put up our tents and made a fire to keep us warm and cook food on. On the first night, we sat under the moon and told each other stories.
The next morning, my sister and I got a terrible surprise. When we looked out of our tent, we saw a big snake sleeping near the fire. I was was so scared that I couldn't move. We shouted to our parents to let them know about the danger. My dad started to jump up and down in their tent. This woke the snake up and it moved into the forest near the lake. My dad told me later that snakes don't have ears but can feel things moving He also told me it was important not to go near a snake. This was a very useful lesson for me.
