"For me, I prefer to -- the relationship -- the commerce relationship between -- and the future. So in this program, I think I cannot only learn about the language, the American cultures, but also I can take some courses on this field. So in this way, I cannot promote myself on this field, but also, what is most important I think is to learn -- to understand -- to make a better understanding on the United States cultureand people.

WTF?

Absurd-—even a 10-yr old could construct a more cogent sentence.

While not all that clea, that was a quote of the questioner, not Michelle.

It appears this statement came from a Chinese student ... not that Michelle’s response made much more sense.

That is the Chinese students question. English is not the native tongue.

The first part of the article quotes a “peking university grad student”, not Michelle Obama.

The grad student is obviously having trouble speaking in English.

But then I’d like to see you guys try speaking in Chinese.

The poorest, most uneducated Chinese person would undoubtedly speak better English.
