詳しい説明は以下サイトをご覧になって下さい。
I went to China to ride the Dongchezu high-speed train.
I went from Japan to China on board the Northwest Airlines plane of United States for 5 days from July 11th.
After arriving at the hotel in Beijing, I went to the Beijing Station to buy tickets.
Because my Chinese is not good, I spent a lot of time there, but finally I managed to buy tickets.
On July 12th, I went from Beijing South Station to Tianjin to ride the CRH3 high-speed train.
Its first train sets were built in Germany by Siemens.
Its maximum speed is 350km/h (217 mph).
In Tianjin 天津, I went to the Zhou Enlai Deng Yingchao Memorial Hall 周恩来邓颖超纪念馆, Shui Shang Park 水上公园, Gu Wenhua Jie 古文化街 (Archaic Town) and Wanghailou Church 望海楼教堂.

CRH3
CRH5
我这次去了5日4夜的中国旅行。
在北京机场，由于H1N1的健康检查时间太长了。
检察員给全部的乘客量体温，然后我提出了一张报表。
然后，我搭乘了那天最后一班列车。
能到东直门站，但是地铁已经停止服务，所以我乘出租车到宾馆。
第一天我乘出租车去的北京南站，用自动售票机买票很容易。
我搭乘了CRH3的动车，非常满意。
那天的最高速度是330公里/小时左右。
我去了周恩来邓颖超纪念馆的外面。
因为人民币不够，所以我没进入。
第二天我吃完宾馆的自助餐之后，从北京站坐地铁到西直门站。
从西直门站走到北京北站。从西直门站到北京北站有几百米。
虽然北京北站很大，但是乘客们并不太多。
从候车厅看到火车，它的名称是和谐长城号。
在长城上走了不一会儿路就变得陡起来了。
在回程的列车里我睡觉了。
第三天走到了北京火车站。
我搭乘了去沈阳北的动车。它的名称是CRH5。
北京火车站非常大。
中国铁路的规模真是让我感到兴奋。
这次的列车的最高速度好像为200公里/小时似的。（真实时速超过200公里/小时）
动车组都很舒服。
从北京到秦皇岛有三百公里左右，不过只花两个小时左右。
我觉得这列列车太快了。
我坐出租车去了老龙头和角山长城。
风景好看极了。

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Tianjin ([tʰjɛ́n.tɕín] (listen)), formerly romanized as Tientsin, is a coastal metropolis in northern China and one of the nine national central cities of the People's Republic of China (PRC), with a total population of 15,469,500, and is also the world's 11th-most populous city proper. It is governed as one of the four municipalities under the direct administration of central government of the PRC and is thus under direct administration of the central government. Tianjin borders Hebei Province and Beijing Municipality, bounded to the east by the Bohai Gulf portion of the Yellow Sea. Part of the Bohai Economic Rim, it is the largest coastal city in northern China.
In terms of urban population, Tianjin is the fourth largest in China, after Shanghai, Beijing, and Guangzhou. In terms of administrative area population, Tianjin ranks fifth in Mainland China. The walled city of Tianjin was built in 1404. As a treaty port since 1860, Tianjin has been a major seaport and gateway to Beijing. During the Boxer Rebellion the city was the seat of the Tianjin Provisional Government. Under the Qing dynasty and the Republic of China, Tianjin became one of the largest cities in the region. At that time, numerous European-style buildings and mansions were constructed in concessions, many of which are well-preserved today. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Tianjin suffered a depression due to the policy of the central government and Tangshan earthquake, but recovered from 1990s. Nowadays Tianjin is a dual-core city, with its main urban area (including the old city) located along the Hai River, which connects to the Yellow and Yangtze Rivers via the Grand Canal; and Binhai, a New Area urban core located east of the old city, on the coast of the Bohai Gulf. As of the end of 2010, around 285 Fortune 500 companies have set up base in Binhai.
