LISTEN TO THE NEW WORDS & NEW SENTENCES
As a citizen of Shenzhen, I am happy that in 2007 my city became the first Chinese mainland city to have a per capita GDP in excess of 10,000 US$, especially conisdering its short 26 years' history.
According to the World Bank, a per capita GDP of US$10,000 is considered as a threshold for an economy to be regarded as "developed." So, I would like to present you with some new sentences about this topic and I really hope this will be a little help to you in learning Chinese.
