我从小就喜欢学说外语,但从来没想过自己会有机会学说汉语,更想不到的是大学会选中文专业。我第一次学中文是在8年级的时候,原以为学中文很难,没想到我的中文水平在一天一天进步。当我的中国话说得越来越好时,中国的语言和文化就越来越吸引我了。有一天,一个在耐克公司工作的员工对我说,每年耐克招聘的员工中,要求会说中文的比例越来越高。我听了以后很受鼓舞,说不定我将来的职业也和中文有关。于是我决定去中国看看,确定一下中文到底是不是我想学的 I grew up loving to speak a foreign language, but I never thought I had a chance to learn Chinese. I even thought it could be that the university would choose a Chinese major. When I first learned Chinese, I was in Grade 8. I thought it was very difficult to learn Chinese. I did not expect my Chinese to improve day by day. As my Chinese is getting better and better, Chinese language and culture are increasingly appealing to me. One day, an employee at Nike told me that among the Nike-hired employees each year, the percentage of people who speak Chinese is getting higher and higher. After listening, I was greatly encouraged, maybe my future career is also related to Chinese. So I decided to go to China to see if I could learn Chinese in the end
