——宿苏外2018春赴加修学团系列报道之六
宿外学子通苏州、达世界。一个月中，宿苏外赴加修学团在学习和感受着加拿大的教育和文化，也在传播中国文化。每周修学团会定期分享中国文化与智慧，从中国的国旗、地理位置、人口、城市、节日、学校以及饮食等方面进行介绍，让他们了解中国。通过分享加深学生对东西方文化差异的认识和理解，丰富个人经历，增强爱国情怀和国际交流的能力。
Duringthe past month, our students not only have been experiencing the Canadianeducation and culture, but have been spreading Chinese culture. Every Thursdaythey introduce Chinese culture, like the national flag, location, population,cities, festivals, schools, food etc. They can understand the differences ofthe two cultures better, enrich personal experiences, heighten the sense ofpatriotism and improve their abilities of multicultural communication.
很多普通的加拿大民众对中国知之甚少。在他们的生活中，中国只是许多生活用品上的“中国制造”，以及加拿大中餐馆中美味的“春卷”。但中国在哪儿，中国有些什么，他们知之甚少。初到加拿大时，有个二年级的孩子问：“中国是加拿大的一部分吗？”从那一刻起，我们的孩子感受到必须让他们了解中国，让世界了解中国。
Common Canadians know little about Chinabesides those daily products with “Made in China and the delicious Chinese food– spring rolls in Chinese restaurants. Most of them pay little attention toChina and they even don’t know where China is and what China looks like.
修学团的同学们在加拿大展示了中国的书法、剪纸、竹笛等才艺，还在日常生活中教授加拿大同学汉语，将中国介绍给世界，将中文带给世界，构建起更多中国和世界沟通的桥梁。
Our students have showed the Canadians some talents likecalligraphy, origami and playing the flute, and also teach them daily Chinese. Theyare trying to build a bridge of communication between the Canadian students andChina by introducing China and Chinese culture to them.
吴若成修学日记
Hello, my friend. I am Sam Wu. I want toshare with you something interesting having happened in Canada.
This week, we went to a Chinese restaurant.We enjoyed Canadian Chinese Food here. Well, It is far away from our home.It took us about 40 minutes on the way.But finally we got there. “China Village Restaurant” , a big sign came into mysight. Then, we entered it. And then, I saw lots of red things. The tables,chairs, the lights even the uniforms of the waiters. Very cool, right? Alsothis was a buffet. It means after we pay . We can eat anything we want.
Then, the waitress took us to a large table. After we put our stuffs down, we went to pick our food to eat. I picked lotsof rice, some chicken with vegetables, raviolis, sweet and sour pork ribs andsome shrimps. All of the food was very delicious. But I thoughtit was very hardto eat with forks and knives. So I asked for some chopsticks. Then George, thefather of my host family, asked Chopsticks for every child in our home. So whenall of us got chopsticks, I showed themhow to use them. But it was tricky for them to use chopsticks . They all gave up at last.
After that, we went shopping. We boughtlots of things here. Food, daily necessities, Xbox game discs ,some gift cardsand some toys too. But not too many. Justin, the boy in our home, bought theRainbow Six For Xbox One. Others and I bought Minecraft for Xbox One and LeftFour Dead 2 For Xbox 360. Anyway, we bought a lot. Then, we went home.
These are the interesting things thathappened in this week. See you.
