Nowadays,many foreign students fly to China,a country thousands of kilometers from their own,just to learn Chinese.

Frank Marshall is one of them,though he would rather be called Simon Fan,a Chinese name given to him by his friend.He has been at Shanghai International Studies University for a year.Before this,he had studied Chinese for a year at a university in Germany.“So far,I have had no difficulty talking with Chinese people,but when they talk with each other,I cannot easily understand them,” he said,“Learning another language is like stepping out of a door,through which I can look back and see more clearly my own language.”

Simon Fan has been to many places in China.Among them,he likes Xi’an and Suzhou very much.“It’s my wish to learn Chinese and make friends,” he said.
