Chinese people love durian from Malaysia – level 1

03-10-2024 07:00

Durian is a fruit with a strong smell. Malaysia grows a lot of durian. China will buy fresh durians from Malaysia now.

After a visit from the Chinese leader, the country decides to import this fruit. Farmers pick the fruit early in the morning. If not, it may fall and get bad. Penang Island is a good place to grow durian.

The farmer tracks where each fruit comes from to keep it good for China. He does not want to sell the farm. He wants to grow new types of durians. He also hopes to have tourists visit the farm.

Difficult words: import (to bring goods into a country), track (to follow), tourist (a person who travels to visit places).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

What are some of the measures taken by the farmer to ensure the quality of durians for export to China, and what are his future plans for the farm?
