Dear Vladimir and Moses: 

昨晚，你真地赞美我的文章， 那是关于获得俄罗斯签证和小Jackie成为半犹太人的。谢谢。今天一早，Vladimir让我谈谈俄罗斯文化。摩西让我稍后比较俄罗斯和捷克的文化。你就像我第一次见到习和王时，他们戳我的阿基里斯的脚跟让我写有关政治的文章。我不太熟悉俄罗斯文化，也不熟悉捷克文化，我不得不搜肠刮肚，挤出一些东西来写。 你是想训练我成为世界文化专家吗？

Last night, You were really praising my essay, which is about getting Russian visa and how little Jackie become half Jewish. Thank you. Early this morning , Vladimir asked me to say something about Russian culture. Moses asked me to compare Russian and Czech culture later on. You are like When I first met Xi and Wang, who hit the Achilles heel asking me to write about politics. I am not so familiar with Russian culture nor Czech culture, I have to scrape my stomach and squeeze something out of my head to write. Is that you train me to be a world culture expertise?

那么，世界上有一些国家的文化强大和有力，俄罗斯就是其中之一。我不是旅行者，也不是外交官，但除了非洲和澳大利亚之外，基本上我已经到过不少国家，而且我对不同地方的文化有一点了解。俄罗斯是一个文化大国，光彩夺目。俄罗斯文化是我接触到的第一个外国文化。中华人民共和国成立后，中国按照苏联模仿了许多制度。在文化上, 中国深受前苏联的影响。我父亲在那里学习了五年，从前苏联带回了很多与文化有关的东西。我喜欢他带回了小礼物，画册，和一盒苏联明信片，那是他在俄罗斯留学五年内送我母亲的。那些画作和照片，就像一扇窗户，在我面前开辟了一片广阔的世界。我知道，原来，外面的世界是如此之大，外面的世界如此美丽，我难以想象。

Well, there are a few countries in the world culturally powerful and strong, definitely Russia is one of them. I'm not a traveler, nor a diplomat, yet, except for Africa and Australia, basically I've been quite a few countries, and I know a little bit about the cultures of different places. Russia is a big cultural country, bright and shining. Russian culture was the first foreign culture I came into contact with. After the founding of the people's Republic of China, China imitated Many of its systems according to the Soviet Union. Culturally, they were deeply influenced by the former Soviet Union. My father, studied there for five years and brought back a lot of cultural stuff from the former Soviet Union. I like to play with the little gifts he brought back, painting albums, and a box of Soviet postcards he sent mother during five years he stayed in Russia. Those paintings and photos, like a window, opened a vast world in front of me. I just knew, actually, the outside world was so big, the outside world was so beautiful, I could hardly imagine.
