小宝: Brother, what are you reading?
小刚: I'm reading an article about foreigners learning Chinese. It's very interesting!
小宝: Do foreigners learn Chinese too? Why?
小刚: Yes, many foreigners are learning Chinese now. They have many different reasons.
小宝: Really? Can you tell me some?
小刚: Sure. For example, Russian students find Chinese challenging, especially the characters, but they enjoy the challenge.
小宝: Wow, they're so brave! I think Chinese characters are fun, like drawing pictures.
小刚: That's right, Americans think so too. They say writing Chinese characters is like drawing, it's beautiful.
小宝: What about Japanese people? Why do they learn Chinese?
小刚: Japanese people have many interesting reasons. Some learn because they like feng shui, some find Chinese pronunciation fun, and others want to understand noodle culture.
小宝: Noodle culture? Is that like the dumplings and noodles we eat?
小刚: Exactly! Germans learn Chinese to do better business with Chinese people.
小宝: Wow, Chinese is so important! Should we teach foreigners to speak Chinese?
小刚: Of course we can. But first, we need to learn Chinese well ourselves.
小宝: Okay! I want to study Chinese well so I can chat with foreign friends in the future!
小刚: Great! Let's work hard to learn Chinese and help more people understand Chinese culture.
