2) What the differences are between China and NZ
中国位于北半球,属于温带,幅员辽阔,横跨5个时区,但以北京时间为标准时间.在冬季来临的时候,北方已经白雪皑皑,但南方还是明媚的阳光.
中国的东部以平原为主,生产小麦和水稻和各种水果.西北部有广大的沙漠和草原,畜牧业发达.
新西兰位于南半球,有南北岛构成.南部接近南极,气候寒冷.北岛较之温和,尤其北岛的奥克兰,温度适宜,冬天无雪,最适合人居住.
新西兰土地贫瘠,农作物基本上靠进口.但草原辽阔,到处可见成群的牛羊,出口牛羊肉是很大的产业,所以畜牧业发达.新西兰的奇异果也在世界上享有很高的地位.
China is located at Northern Hemisphere, belongs to the temperate zone, vast in territory, stretches across 5 time zones, but take the Beijing standard time as the standard time. Approaches in the winter, north was already snow gleams white, but south beautiful sunlight.
China is eastern part by plain primarily, production wheat and paddy rice and each kind of fruit. Northeast part has the general deserts and the prairie, the animal husbandry is developed.
New Zealand is located at the southern hemisphere, south has North island to constitute. The south approaches the South Pole, the climate is cold. North island compared with temperate, especially North island's Auckland, temperature being suitable, in the winter snowless, most suits the human to live.
New Zealand land is barren, the crops basically depend on the import. But the prairie is vast, everywhere obviously in groups cattle and sheep, export the cow mutton are the very big industries, therefore the animal husbandry is developed. New Zealand's strange fruit also enjoys the very high status in the world.
2. What you like most about China and New Zealand.
1) About China
我喜欢中国的人多，所以会很热闹！！！尤其像过春节的时候，大家一起包饺子，做在一起吃团圆饭的时候，然后跟大家一起看电视，再放烟花，最后跟长辈们拜年，然后就可以得到红包．心里有一种很温馨的感觉．
I like the crowd of China, especially when it comes to the celebration of the Spring Festival, everybody makes dumplings together, and sit together as a family, then watches the television together, puts the fireworks again, finally pays new year's call with the elders, then may obtain the red package. It feels like home!!
2) About New Zealand
我喜欢新西兰的风景，空气新鲜．阳光明媚．尤其是我第一次来新西兰的时候，看到蓝色天空衬托着白云，忽隐忽现的在我眼前．一不留神，就不知道哪儿块云彩端到哪里去了．当然我最喜欢是每当雨过天晴的时候，一束彩虹就会展现在你眼前，五颜六色的．好看极了！！
I like New Zealand's scenery, the air is fresh. The sunlight is beautiful. Especially when I first came New Zealand, saw the blue color sky is serving as contrast the white clouds. I like the rainbows coming out after raining.
3. The friends you make in China and NZ
(1) In China
中国自古以来就有礼仪之邦之称,有朋自远方来不亦乐呼.愿意交朋友是一种美德.所以我觉得在中国交朋友并不是很难.因为中国人喜欢扎堆,喜欢有朋友在一起热闹的场面.我来到新西兰7年了，我还在和我小学的朋友保持联系,倾诉我们的友谊,当然了也倾诉人间的烦恼.
China has name of since the ancient times nation of the etiquette, has the friend to come from the distant place not also happily to shout. Is willing to become friends is one kind of moral excellence. Therefore I thought that becomes friends in China is not very difficult. Because the Chinese likes huddling together, likes having the friend in together the lively scene. I arrived at the New Zealand 7 years, I also maintained the relation with my elementary school's friends, poured out our friendship, certainly also poured out the world the worry.
2) In New Zealand
在新西兰就不同了，东西文化有着本质的不同,例如,肤色的不同,信仰的不同,人生观的不同,思考问题的方式不同,等等,再加之洋人对亚洲文化的不理解而对我们产生的歧视,使我们很难融到他们的圈子里去.所以我在这里交的朋友,多数还是亚洲国家的朋友,很少有洋人朋友.我希望更多的洋人能了解我们,能够成为我们的朋友，我期待这一天的到来.
New Zealand Has been different compared with China, especially the culture difference, for example, the skin color difference, the belief difference, the outlook on life difference, pondered that the question the way is different, and so on, adds the foreigners to the Asian culture not to understand again, but produces to us the discrimination, causes us very difficult to make friends with them. Therefore the most Asian has very little foreigner friends. Though I hope that more foreigners can understand us and become friends with us.
4. How you meet your friends.
在新西兰,见朋友真的是有点难，因大家都居住在相隔很远的地方.而且公车也很不方便.所以我们见面最多的地方不过就是在学校，在图书馆.好在我们大家都有手机,可以及时联络,发个短短的信息就可以解燃眉之急.如果我们在家里，就可以随时的打电话和朋友聊天,做不见面的朋友，因在新西兰打坐机电话不计时间.
In New Zealand it is difficult to see our friends because everybody lives in the great distance or very far place. Moreover the public vehicle is not very convenient. Therefore we meet most places around the school, and the library. It is quite useful that everyone has a cellphone to text each other, so that we can solve any urgent matter. If we at home, may telephoning momentarily chat with the friend, is friend who does not meet, because sits in meditation machine the telephone in New Zealand not to count the time.

5.What attribute you (should) have (What is the school'experctation about
you) as a high school student in NZ and In China.
我虽然没有在中国上高中, 可我妈妈是重点高中的老师,所以我了解中国高中的一些制度.
中国的高中一天上7节课,每天都有早读,每节课上40分钟.中午12点放学,冬天可休息两个小时,夏天就更长点.这样可以保证学生有充足的精力和体力上下午上两节课,还有两节自习.每节的自习都有各课的老师辅导,及时解决学生没有弄懂的问题.晚上住校生还要上两个半小时的晚自习,也有老师辅导,走读生也可以上晚自习.
新西兰9点上课,下午3点15放学.午饭期间有老师辅导,时间短人也多，所以效果不好.因吃不好中午饭,影响身体健康.希望新西兰高中也应该有各门课的专门辅导和时间,及时解决学生疑难问题.
Although I never went to high school in China, but my mother is a high school teacher, therefore I understand how does Chinese students go to high school.
China's high school space 7 classes, have every day read early, in each class 40 minutes. 12:00 pm are on vacation from school, in the winter may rest for two hours, in the summer longer spot. This may guarantee that the student has in the sufficient energy and the physical strength in afternoon two classes, but also two study by oneself. Each period studies by oneself has various classes teacher to counsel, solves the problem which promptly the student has not understood. Evening lives at school returns alive wants on two-and-a-half hour evenings to study by oneself, also has teacher to counsel, the day student may also on late study by oneself.
The New Zealand high school starts at 9.00, and finishes at 3.15 in the afternoon. Lunch period has teacher to counsel, the time is short of people also much, therefore the effect is not good. Because has not well the lunch, affects the health. Hoped that New Zealand High school should also have various class special counselling and the time, solves the student hard problem promptly.

长城是人类文明史上最伟大的建筑工程之一.１９８７年，长城被联合国教科文组织列入《世界遗产名录》。长城的主体工程是绵延万里的高大城墙，大都建在山岭最高处，沿着山脊把蜿蜒无尽的山势勾画出清晰的轮廓，塑造出奔腾飞跃、气势磅礴的巨龙，从而成为中华民族的象征.她横贯中国北方，东西相距１万余里，故称万里长城,为中古世界七大奇迹之一,也是人类在月球上唯一能看的见的地球上的建筑物,所以中国人都知道这句话,不到长城非好汉,所以我要是去中国,一定要去登长城.
The Great Wall is in the human history of civilization 1987 the years greatest architectural engineering, the Great Wall is included by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization "World heritage Name list". Great Wall's principal part is continuous Wan Li the big city wall, constructs mostly in the mountain ridge roof, winds the inexhaustible appearance of the mountain along the mountain ridge to outline the clear outline, the mold flees leaps the leap, with overpowering momentum big dragon, thus becomes the Chinese nation the elephant drafts. She crosses north part of China, the thing is distanced 10,000 miles, thus is called the Great Wall, one of for Middle Ages world seven wonders of the world, is also the humanity on Earth's building which can look only on the Moon sees, therefore the Chinese know these words, not to the Great Wall non-real man, therefore I, if goes to China, certainly must go to ascend the Great Wall.
