《我最爱的中华宝贝》第57集 Dino & Nini：我在新西兰很想你

由中共上海市委对外宣传办公室、上海市文化和旅游局、上海广播电视台融媒体中心（SMG NEWS）联合发起，2023“爱上海的理由”青少年英语短视频征集展播活动以“我最爱的中华宝贝”为题，诚邀全球新生代用向上的风貌、良好的英语表达和创意的镜头语言展现青少年眼中具有当代价值和世界意义的中华优秀传统文化。幼时的中国行，对新西兰的Dino和Nini来说亲切又新奇。无论是雄壮威武的兵马俑，爽滑劲道的拉面，还是热情欢乐的广场舞，都让他们念念不忘。在这一集里，Dino和Nini想对中国，特别是妈妈的故乡上海说一句，我们在新西兰很想你。

【萌娃拜年】

大家好，我叫Dino。大家好，我叫Nini。我们来自新西兰，祝大家新年快乐。

Dino、Nini自述：

Dino：大家好，我叫Dino。

Nini：大家好，我叫Nini。

Dino：我6岁时到中国西安游玩。在西安我见到了兵马俑，让我大受震撼。想象一下，用粘土制作的士兵，保卫着古代的皇帝。这些雕塑的制作非常细致精良，显示出当时工匠非凡的创造性。

Nini：我最爱的中华宝贝是中国的美食。大约在我4岁的时候，我们一家走在西安繁忙的街市上，我专注地看一些人做面条。他们把面团拉扯成面条的样子很酷。我惊叹地看着他们，以至于忘记我的爸爸妈妈已经走远了。好在最后他们终于找到我了。我妈妈教我们如何做甜食，比如月饼和粽子。她还教我们如何包馄饨和包子。我了解到，中华美食不仅仅是一种味道，更包含了各种美食背后的故事和传统习俗。

Dino：我非常期待尽快能再次来到中国，探索更多的中华宝贝。

Nini：我迫不及待想回到我妈妈的故乡上海。

Dino & Nini：谢谢，再见！

My Favorite Chinese Treasures EP57｜Dino Walton & Nini Walton: Miss You All the Way from New Zealand #MyFavoriteChineseTreasures #MyFavoriteShanghaiSeason4 #shortvideoshowcase #vlog #springfestival

[Spring Festival Greetings]

I'm Dino. I’m Nini. We’re from New Zealand. Happy Chinese New Year.

Presented by Dino Walton and Nini Walton

Dino: Hello, my name is Dino.

Nini: Hello, my name is Nini.

Dino: When I was six years old, I visited Xi’an in China. That’s where I encountered the Terracotta Army, and it totally blew my mind. Imagine this: clay soldiers frozen in time, guarding their ancient emperor. Those clay statures are like incredibly detailed action figures that show how creative people were back then.

Nini: For me, the treasure in China is the food. I remember when I was around 4, we were in the busy street markets in Xi’an. I was watching someone make noodles and it was really cool the way they were stretching them and pulling them to make the shape of the noodles. I was so amazed that I didn't realize my parents have walked away without me. Long story short, they found me.

My mom teaches us how to make sweet treats like mooncake and rice dumpling. She also teaches us how to make wontons and baozi (steamed bun).

One thing I’ve learned is that Chinese food isn’t just about the taste, it’s about the stories and traditions behind each dish.

Dino: I hope to visit China some time against soon, and explore more of its treasures.

Nini: I can’t wait to go back to Shanghai, my mom’s hometown.

Dino & Nini: Thank you, bye!
