Marco Polo

Have you ever read the travels of Marco Polo?(你读过马可·波罗的游记吗？)

No wonder Marco Polo (or his unacknowledged source?) was impressed. The Venice of his day had little more than 50, 000 citizens.(无怪乎马可波罗对其印象深刻，在他生活的时代，威尼斯只有区区5万多居民。)

Two words: "Marco Polo."(上书两词：“马可波罗”)

Although I didn't see any Italians in Hangzhou's Italian neighborhood, I think Marco Polo would be proud nonetheless.(虽然我在杭州这个意大利社区没见到一个意大利人，但我想马可·波罗一定会为此自豪不已。)

Marco Polo, travelling through Persia in 1270, praised the carpets of Kirman as a particular marvel.(1270年，马可波罗穿越波斯，称赞科曼地毯是一大奇迹。到17世纪，科曼地毯投入生产。)

Alone and silent, I could stroll through provincial towns with a low profile, Marco Polo in jeans.(一个人，我能够安安静静地独自穿越大大小小的城镇，就像穿着牛仔裤的马可波罗一般低调。)

So Marco Polo on the proposal will be filling on the bread to eat.(于是马可·波罗提议就将馅料放在面饼上吃。)

Rabban Bar Sauma (c. 1220-1294) is the Marco Polo of the East, and yet is relatively unknown.(拉班·巴·索玛(c.1220—1294)是东方的马可·波罗，但是相对来说还是鲜为人知的。)

Marco Polo was the first European ever to travel to the East and to return with a story to tell.(马可·波罗是曾经到东方旅行并带回来见闻故事的第一位欧洲人。)

Marco Polo came from Venice and traveled extensively in China, later describing the country's prosperity in his Travels.(威尼斯人马可·波罗曾在中国广泛游历，在他的游记中，生动、具体地描述了当时中国的富强和工商业的繁荣。)
