14. What is the difference between your hometown and Beijing / HongKong?
The main difference between Shenyang and Hong Kong is the climate. Forexample, there they have a tropical climate. That is to say that it is very hotand humid. Here in Shenyang we have cold winters and hot summers. Althoughcities like Hong Kong, Beijing, and Shanghai are larger than my hometownShenyang, they all are bustling with industrial and cultural activities. MaybeHong Kong is an exception, as it is better known as one of the most importantfinancial capitals of the world.

Well, they aren’t any different from the inhabitants in any other largecity. For example, here we also have many wholesome families as well as ourshare of criminal elements in the society. In addition, I believe that myhometown has not been westernized to the same extent as a city like Hong Kong.For example, in Shenyang the people have not become materialistic to the sameextent as the inhabitants of Hong Kong. In other words, in Shenyang you wouldstill find many good old-fashioned (traditional) people who have strongprinciples and values about many aspects of life.
