《English Translation》

刘娜: Xiao Pan, did you see the news? The Russian Prime Minister said a Chinese proverb while in China.
小潘: I saw it. He said, “Above there is heaven; below there are Suzhou and Hangzhou,” and his pronunciation was very good.
刘娜: Yes, that line made many people feel warm and was also a form of cultural exchange.
小潘: No wonder foreign media paid close attention. A simple sentence can express friendliness.
刘娜: Right. Besides cooperation, cultural understanding between countries is also important.
小潘: I think learning Chinese is the same. Understanding the language helps you understand a country better.
刘娜: Well said. When you study history in the future, these cultural details will also be useful.
小潘: Yes, I’ll keep working hard so I can understand more Chinese stories.
