Ok. Let's look at our short presentation on China. What do we need to include?
We need to talk about the size of the country and its population.
Ok. China is about the same size as Canada and the united states and it has a population of about 1. 3 billion, making it the latest country in the world by population.
It says here that most of the people are han Chinese, but there are 55 minorities that make up almost 10 % of the population.
We need to say something about the geography and climate of china. Is there any way to divide the country into sections?
We could divide into five parts. There's the northeast, which is mild in summer and very cold in winter. Then there is the northwest, which is largely desert. Tillet is famous for its mountainous climate. The rest of the country can be roughly divided into two parts. One is temperate-mild in winter and warm in summer. Then, in the south it is hot most of the year.
That sounds very general.
It is, buy remember that we only have a few minutes to make our presentation. We can select cities from each part and give data for each one.
One from each part? Lhasa, Urumqi, Harbin, shanghai, and hongkong. The capital city is Beijing, right?
Yes. The other large cities are Chengdu, Dalian, Wuhan, tianjin, shenyang, Chongqing. Hongkong and Guangzhou.
