The First Lady’s Travel Journal: Our Official Visit to China Begins 第一夫人旅游日志：我们对中国的正式访问开始 March 21, 2017 2017年3月21日 After a long flight from Washington, D.C. – one that took around 20 hours – my mother, my daughters, and I arrived in Beijing to begin our official visit to China. Our first stop was at the Beijing Normal School, where we were hosted by Madam Peng Liyuan, the First Lady of China. 从华盛顿出发，在经历了差不多20个小时的长途飞行之后，我和我的母亲、我的女儿们抵达北京，开始了我们的正式访问。我们的第一站是北师大二附中，中国第一夫人彭丽媛女士接待了我们。 Madam Peng first became known to the Chinese people long before she was First Lady. Madam Peng earned her Master’s Degree in traditional ethnic music at China’s Conservatory of Music, and in 1983, she performed as a folk singer on the Chinese Lunar New Year telecast, which is consistently the most-watched broadcast in the world. In the years since, she has appeared on that telecast multiple times, while also performing for audiences throughout China, becoming one of the most popular folk singers in her country. 彭女士在成为第一夫人之前已经在中国家喻户晓。彭女士在中国音乐学院拿到民族声乐硕士学位。1983年，她以一个民族歌手的身份在中国农历新年晚会上演出，这个晚会一直是世界上观众最多的电视节目。之后若干年，她经常上电视，同时在中国各地为观众演唱歌曲，成为中国最受欢迎的民族歌手之一。 |
