B3. Now listen to the interview with the second tourist. Supply the missing information.
Can I get your name?
Linda.
Linda, What's your last name? Linux.
Linux, from Toronto. Your impressions of the Terracotta Warriors?
...was incredible. It was just a sheer number of them, the history. I was really, mostly impressed by the number that have been left untouched until the preservation process can be further researched.
Yeah, Do you find that it was what you had expected when you came?
Yes, I actually teach in Canada. And so I learned about Terracotta Warriors as part of study with Grade Five students of ancient civilizations or early civilizations. And we looked at China. And this is one of the things that we studied. Oh, really?
So I've seen the pictures. I've seen some video footage and...So it was very much what I've expected. And it was even more impressive than I expected.
What about the actual tour part itself, Did you find that it was a bit maybe too touristy?
I'm here with a guide. He did a great job of explaining the history. I like the other signage around, the museum too, the attractive pieces as well.
Yeah. What about overall...I mean...have you had a chance to go to Xi'an itself, the actual city and take a look around?
We visited a little bit yesterday.
What did you think?
Great, we did a bike ride around the city wall. And that was fabulous. It was nice to be out.
And there are so many crowds in China. It's very different from Canada. So it was nice to be able to move freely around the city wall quickly.
Well, Linda, Thanks a lot for the time, I appreciate it.
You're very welcome.
