I’ve been studying history in China.

My name is Leo. I’m from Australia,

and I’ve been teaching in China for two

years. I teach in Harbin, the capital of

Heilongjiang Province. This is really an

interesting city with a very colorful

history. There is some European influence

in the city, and some of the old buildings

in Harbin are in Russian style.

有着非常丰富的历史欧洲化影响

俄罗斯风格

Since I came to China, I’ve been learning a lot about my family history. Although I’m Australian, my family is Jewish. So it was very interesting for me to learn that a lot of Jews came to live in Harbin many years ago. My parents were so surprised when I told them about this. In fact, the first Jews probably came to Kaifeng more than a thousand years ago, and were welcomed by the Song Emperor.

事实上，最早的犹太人可能一千多年前就来到了开封，他们受到了宋朝皇帝的热情欢迎。

很多年前就有很多犹太人来到哈尔滨居住，这对我来说了解这一历史是非常有趣的。

When I lived in Australia, I studied history at school but we usually studied Australian or western history. However, when I heard that I was going to work in China, I started studying Chinese history. I’ve been studying for over two years now. My friends in Australia said that Chinese history was very hard to understand, but I don’t really agree.

然而，当我听说我将在中国工作的时候，我开始学习中国历史。

I think if you study hard, you’ll be able to

understand any culture. For a foreigner like me,

the more I learn about Chinese history, the

more I enjoy living in China.

And although I live quite far from Beijing,

I’m certain I will be here for the Olympic

Games in 2008!
