Archaeologist Yan Ni was glad of the recent rain, as it made the soil softer, allowing her and her teammates to unearth relics with greater ease.

"The drought since last year made the soil at the excavation site hard and difficult to explore. With this rain, the upcoming work will be much easier," she said.

Dieses Interview war wirklich spannend. Ich habe Herrn Müller interviewt, der seit fast 40 Jahren in China lebt.

Sofort habe ich Lust bekommen, mal in eine andere Kultur und eine andere Sprache einzutauchen. Gar nicht mal auswandern, aber ein, zwei Jahre woanders leben. Heutzutage geht ja alles.

Es gefällt mir gut, wie Herr Müller sein China beschreibt. Und wie er Chinesisch gelernt hat
