Question

Would you like to go to Beijing, our capital? It has a long way from Guangzhou.

It’s 2,313 kilometers from Beijing to Guangzhou. The city of Kunming is 2,216 kilometers away from Guangzhou. It’s always warm there. But it’s very hot in summer in Wuhan. It’s l,084 kilometers from Guangzhou to Wuhan. Changsha is near Guangzhou. It’s 726 kilometers from Changsha to Guangzhou. Do you know which city is the biggest in China? It’s Shanghai. It’s 1,811 kilometers from Guangzhou to Shanghai.

If you travel by air, you’ll find it very interesting and fast enough to fly from Guangzhou to Beijing. It only takes you about four hours and you’ll get there easily, safely and unhurriedly(从容不迫地).
