So we decided not to drive our car but to take the bullet train(高速火车) to Shanghai. It was the time that I had ridden on the bullet train.

        On the way, an American girl sat next to me and I talked to her. She told me that she came here for a short stay-her father came to China on business. In one year he would go back to his company in the US. “How are you getting along here?" I asked. “Pretty well. I enjoy the life here and the people are , ” she said. With new friends around, she still missed her friends in the US very much. “It doesn't matter. I could always connect with them by letters, emails or making phone calls,” she said with a sweet smile.
