Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
Go figure: Lunar
New Year 2014 in numbers
Add another one or
two digits! When you talk about numbers about China, you may need to adjust the
scale in your brain. They outnumber most of the figures of any other country,
such as new car sales (20 million) and mobile phone subscribers (billion), not
to mention the population of the country (1.3 billion).
As the country and
people get wealthier, the number of travelers, both of those who go back to
their homeland to see their loved ones during Lunar New Year holidays and of those
who fly to other countries, are increasing.
Enjoy reading and
learning about some stunning figures about the world most populous country,
which might make you think of buying a bigger calculator with more digits!
