I was surprised that the wise people were killed so they wouldn’t question the Emperor’s power and decisions. - Madeline
Fishermen use a cormorant bird for fishing. - Nolan
I used the think that the schools in America were not like the schools in China but now I know after Mr. Kim’s presentation they are more similar than I thought. - Fiona
I used to think China was just like the US but with a different language. Now I know it is different like many generations of the same family living in the same house. - William
In old days, farmers were more special. Poor people were valued over than the rich people. They worked the hardest. - James
I was surprised how many people in China used the internet. It was a lot more than I thought. - Jamieson
I used to think that 4 and 14 have the same meaning but now I know 4 means death and 14 means I want to die. - Justin
It is very cold in Chinese homes. There are no heaters in the houses. I learned they wear lots of layers to stay warm. - Max
I liked interviewing my Mandarin teacher. School was very different for her than for me. I feel like I know her better. - Ethan
I used to think Chongming Island was dirty and polluted because it used to be a garbage dump. Now I know that they cleaned it up so the birds and animals can come back. - Junsung
Something that surprised me was that Shokay recycled some of the stuff the locals threw away. People don’t recycle on Chongming Island or reuse their things. Shokay reuses lots of things. - Ben
The most interesting thing I learned was how to finger knit because I didn’t know that skill or that it was easy to do. We use machines. They don't. - Ella and Minseo
