Exercise: Distinguished guests from NewZealand, ladies and gentlemen, I feel pleased & honored to be here to preside over this grand welcoming ceremony for the honorable NZ guests. Despite the long distance between china and Zealand, (although it’s a long way from china to NZ, ) the peoples from the two nations have long been friendly to each other. During the years, we have had sincere and fruitful coops in the fields of politics, economy, culture, edu and so on. With more and more (the increasingly frequent) exchanges between the two peoples, I, as a Chinese scholar, have had opportunities to visit NZ many times, studying, lecturing and exchanging ideas. I’m deeply impressed by her beautiful scenery, plenty of sunshine, agreeable climate, quiet and comfortable study environment, as well as its people who are kind and friendly.
