摘 要: | You might be crazy about Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" as an English learner, but what do you think British teenagers studying Chinese are crazy about? Well, it's Cao Xueqin's classic, "The Dream of the Red Chamber". On December 18, nine British students arrived in Beijing for a seven-day trip after winning a 2006 Chinese Speaking Competition in Britain. More than 170 students from 36 secondary schools took part in that competition last month. It was organized by the British Council. Three of the students coming to Beijing won first prizes for Language Ability. The other six were first prize winners for a dramatic performance in Chinese entitled "A New Home for Lin Daiyu".
