1. The Belt and Road Initiative is the biggest achievement. Notable changes happening include rapid technological and economic progress.

2. Safe, modern and traditional combined, and great potential.

3. Some countries may view China as a rival as it promotes its Belt and Road cooperation. This stems from misunderstanding.

4. There are obstacles to China's rejuvenation, and I hope the congress will lead the people to figure out ways to tackle the challenges.

5. The Belt and Road Initiative is beneficial for China and the whole world. It is reasonable that, being a leader of a large country, President Xi Jinping values the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence as the basis of interaction when cooperating and communicating with smaller countries.

6. The world agrees that China is a powerful country. Many countries cooperating with it know that their economic development is linked to it.

7. China's ability to learn from past mistakes and thus avoid repetition is really inspiring.

8. I suppose China is capable of forming accurate predictions for the future after careful research.

9. China has become an important part of my life. If I'm not there, I miss it. I consider my time spent in the country as enlightening. Every stay leaves me feeling energized by the research resources and knowledge I find in everyday life.
