Russian student Kirill Kravtsov, known by his Chinese name Lin Zirui, is studying at Peking University now. For him, reading is a very important way of building cultural bridges between countries and encouraging mutual understanding (促进相互理解).
In his conversations with students and teachers, he often introduces Russian literature (文学). He can listen to their opinions of Chinese works, and find resonance (共鸣) in books from different countries and of different types of writing.
"When we bring Chinese and Russian literature to the same table, different opinions naturally arise. Through such communication, we learn to respect differences and keep improving ourselves," Kirill says.
Among Russian-language writers, he loves Tolstoy and Dostoevsky. For example, he realized the treasure of human relationships in times of war from Tolstoy's War and Peace.
"These reading experiences in my first tongue allowed me to continue to explore humanity and find spiritual resonance with my home culture during my study in China," he said.
After coming to China, Chinese literature opened a new world for Kirill. He speaks of finding humor and resilience (坚韧) in Lao She's Ricksha Boy (《骆驼祥子》, which says "even the greatest difficulties can be slept through," or seeing the changes of cities and lives in Eileen Chang's works.
"Reading in a foreign language not only improves my language skills, but also allows me to think about the meaning of fate (命运) and life carefully through a Chinese point of view," he adds.
(1)、Kirill is .(2)、Kirill sees reading as a way to between countries.(3)、In discussions, Kirill frequently introduces .(4)、From War and Peace, Kirill learned the value of .(5)、Do you like reading in a foreign language? Why or why not?
