| Anna Walker (A tour guide in Chester): Close to the English and Welsh border, the city of Chester has a long history. It’s filled with buildings of historic sites, including some historic city walls in the country. For tourists who plan a visit to Chester this year, there’s plenty on offer, including a new, free, self-guided tour that lines the city’s four main streets. Chester’s Rows are unique (独特的) in the world, which form a second row of shops above those at street level. Nobody is quite sure why they were built this way. But the new tour offers an insight into their fascinating history and the shaping of Chester. |
| Brian Clarke (A boat driver in Chester): I was born in the small village of Mancot, six miles from Chester, and once I moved here, I have simply never wanted to leave the city. The city itself has so much to offer but most of all I love the beautiful River Dee. My favorite spot in Chester is the tree-lined banks of the River Dee. I walk into work at Chester Boat every day and it’s great to be able to walk through Grosvenor Park and come out at Queens Park Bridge. Chester Boat business began in Chester over 100 years ago. I started as a boat driver in 1979 and have had a wonderful life. |
| Katrina Kerr (An old lady in Chester): I’m a Londoner but in 1998 my husband and I moved to Chester. It was the perfect location and we really felt we had “escaped to the country”.

Chester is right on the border with Wales, so for centuries it has been a bit English and a bit Welsh. Now a new generation have started businesses in travel and finance (金融).

In November 1979, pupils in England were able to watch a new TV program called Monkey. Most of them were hearing this story for the first time. However, this story is not new to Chinese children. The Monkey King or Sun Wukong is the main character in the traditional Chinese book Journey to the West.
The Monkey King is not just any normal monkey. In fact, he sometimes does not even look like a monkey! This is because he can make 72 changes to his shape and size, turning himself into different animals and objects. But unless he can hide his tail, he cannot turn himself into a man. To fight bad people, the Monkey King uses a magic stick. Sometimes he can make the stick so small that he can keep it in his ear. At other times he is able to make it big and long.
The Monkey King has excited the children of China for many years. And as soon as the TV program came out more than 30 years ago, Western children became interested in reading this story because the clever Monkey King keeps fighting to help the weak and never gives up.
