我可是做过一番研究的。中国被称为“龙的国度”，中国人总说自己是“龙的子孙”、“龙的传人”，汉语中有很多带“龙”字的成语，中国的建筑、绘画等艺术中也有很多“龙”的形象，我对这种图腾崇拜很感兴趣，所以看了不少这方面的书。

I've done a little research. China has been called ''The Land of the Dragon." Chinese say that they are ''sons and grandsons of the Dragon," and ''the descendants of the Dragon." Chinese has a lot of proverbs with the word dragon in them. Chinese architecture, painting and other kinds of artwork also have a lot of images of dragons. I'm really interested in this kind of totem. So I've read a lot of books on this topic.
