在心里刻下你的名字——中国
［越南］ 陶蓝希 哈尔滨工程大学
不知道大家对中国有怎样的印象。在我心里，中国是文化和历史都很悠久的国家；在我眼里，中国是壮观的万里长城，是宏伟的故宫、天安门，是秀丽的大理，也是诗意的凤凰古城；在我梦里，中国是热辣的火锅，是香脆的烤鸭，也是筋道的重庆小面……千千万万的景象构成了一个色香味俱全的国度。那今天，我就带你们走进我脑海里的中国。
想必大家也听过这句话“上有天堂，下有苏杭”或者是“桂林山水甲天下”。这两句话是比喻中国的苏州、杭州和桂林的风景特别美丽，像天堂一样。中国的每个季节都给我们带来不一样的景色和感受，春天是温柔的风、夏天是清新的雨、秋天是蔚蓝的天空、冬天是冰冷的白雪。
不仅如此，中国的文化风俗也很丰富，包罗万象、历史悠久、博大精深，涵盖很多传统的思想观念。中国一年有很多节日，像元宵节、清明节、端午节等，对中国人来说最盛大最重要的节日就是春节。春节的时候，人们在经历工作、学习繁忙的一年后可以回家跟家人团圆，吃顿饭，聊聊天，这几天能找回家里的味道。

后来通过网上学习，我对中国的花卉也有些了解。我知道牡丹花在中国文化史中的地位，牡丹花看上去很大，是富贵、雍容的象征。它跟中国人的性格很像，适应性强，不论在什么样的环境下都能很好地发展自己。“春来谁作韶华主，总领群芳是牡丹”，牡丹大气、艳丽而不俗，有大国的姿态。

慢慢去了解中国的方方面面，你会发现还有更多有趣的事情。中国不仅有过目难忘的风景，还有热情好客的人民。去年，我有幸获得了国际中文教师奖学金，获得了在哈尔滨工程大学学习一年的机会。虽然因为疫情，我不能走进这个向往很久的国家，但是学校里的老师却用网络带着我们走进了中国。不论是学校春季的杏花，还是哈尔滨别具风情的中央大街，还有秋日的片片红叶，冬天五光十色的冰灯……老师们用网络作纽带，拉着我的手，教我感受这一片神奇的土地。我们虽未曾谋面，但是我能感觉到老师们的热情、勤奋和严谨。我虽然从未踏足这片土地，但是我能感觉到她的生动和美丽。就是在网络的这一头，我感觉到了梦境中出现的美味，还有曾经在心里想象过很多次的宏伟建筑。我对中国的印象越来越深刻，越来越具体。中国已经变成了一个熟悉的名字，刻在了我的心里，吸引着我努力地去追寻它的踪迹。

回首过去的一年，有很多收获，但也有些许遗憾。希望有朝一日，疫情过去，我可以亲身来中国学习，感受曾经那些心里的、梦里的、网上看到的中国。追寻我的梦，留下我的爱，开启另一段崭新的人生！
Engrave Your Name in My Heart — China
［Vietnam］ Ðào Thị Ngẩn， Harbin Engineering University
Different people have different impression on China． For me， China is a country with long history． It has magnificent Great Wall， splendid Palace Museum and Tiananmen Square． It also has beautiful Dali city and poetic ancient town of Fenghuang． In my dreams， China is the spicy hot－pot， crispy and delicious roasted duck， and al dente Chongqing noodles． Thousands of scenes make up a country with enjoyable smell， taste and sights． Today I will bring you to China alive in my memories．
I am sure you have heard the two old Chinese sayings： “Just as there is paradise in heaven， there are Suzhou and Hangzhou on Earth；” “East or West， Guilin scenery is the best．” The two sayings are praising Suzhou， Hangzhou and Guilin for their beautiful scenery like paradise． Every season in China brings us different scenery and enjoyment． In spring there is soft breeze， in summer fresh rain， in autumn blue sky and in winter cold and white snow．
China also has diversified culture customs with inclusive， long and extensive historical heritages， covering diversified traditional ideologies and thoughts． China has many traditional festivals， such as the Lantern Festival， Qingming Festival and Dragon Boat Festival． Among all these festivals the most important and magnificent one is the Spring Festival when people get together with their families， have delicious meals together and chat after a year of busy work and study． In the Spring Festival people can always enjoy their family life．
I started to know more about Chinese flowers after browsing on the internet． I know that peonies have a special position in the history of Chinese culture． Peonies are large flowers， symbolizing richness and magnificence． Their strong adaptability is like the characters of Chinese people． No matter what kind of environment they are in， they can develop themselves well． A famous Chinese poem praises Peonies： “Who is the master of the youth in spring？ Peonies always take the lead among all blossoms！” Peonies are grand， glamorous but not vulgar． They have a manner and attitude like a great nation．
Slowly I get to know more about China and I find more fun． China has unforgettable scenery and hospitable people． Last year I was so lucky that I won a scholarship for International Teachers of Chinese which granted me a chance to study for one year at Ha’erbin Engineering University． Due to the pandemic， I could not walk with my own feet into this country which I had admired for so long． However， teachers of the university still managed to bring us into China through internet． We saw the apricot flowers of the university in spring， the charming Central Avenue of Ha’erbin， red leaves in the autumn and colorful ice lamps in winter， as if we were seeing this magical land in real person． Though we did not step our feet onto this land and did not meet each other face to face， our teachers， with their passion， hard－working and preciseness， were using the internet to lead us feel its vitality and beauty． On the other end of the internet， I seemed to have tried the delicious food in my dreams and have seen the magnificent buildings which I had imagined many times． My image of China became more and more specific and clear． China has become a familiar name to me， engraved in my heart， attracting me to pursue more of its charm．
Looking back upon the past year， I’ve gained a lot． However， there were also unfulfilled wishes． I wish I could come to China in person one day after the end of the pandemic to pursue my study and to experience the beauty and charm of China． Pursue my dream， leave my love and start another brand－new life in China．
