English Meaning: Hello everyone! My English name is Emily, but my Chinese name is zhong jia ying. My speech topic for today is my impression on Taiwan and China. Last year, I went to Taiwan to visit my mother's mom and my father's dad. My mom's older brother, older sister, and her mom all live in Taipei, Taiwan. My dad's older brother, older sister, and her mom also live in Taiwan. However, my dad's family does not live in Taipei, but they live in Ping Dong. In the year before last year, my dad, my older cousin, my uncle, and I all went to mainland China to travel and tour around. We went to Shanghai to see the World Expo, and we also went to visit temples. My family often travels to Taiwan and China. Since I have to attend school from August to June, my family typically only goes to Taiwan during July. During July, Taiwan is both hot and humid. Mainland China's weather is also extremely hot and very stuffy. Although the weather during the summer is very uncomfortable, Taiwan and China both have a variety of delicious things to eat. My favorite thing to eat in Taiwan is 剉冰. This means shaved ice in English. These two places also have many beautiful structures and buildings to visit and look at. From their food to their infamous buildings, my impression of both Taiwan and China are very good. Not only can I visit my grandparents and relatives, but I also love visiting foreign countries. Thank you everyone.
