We only have about 135,000 people. I looked up the 1900 population, it was about 57,000. So it is about twice as many people, not ten times as many, like L.A.! Oxford is much smaller than LondonLondon has about 7,000,000 people. So that means that L.A. has more people than London. L.A. gets hotter than Oxford. We have colder winters tooit can be -4C in winter.Im not surprised that your new student only knew about the university. It is famous because it is one of the oldest universities in the country. There are about 18,000 students. The brother of my best friend is at Aberystwyth University, in Wales. There the population is 14,000 and half of that are students! It must be a strange place to live! There are more tourists in Oxford than students, I should think. We get a lot of tourists, all year round. We also get a lot of young foreign students because there are a lot of language schools here.

Many girls today love xiaoxianrou, or little fresh meat, which refers to young male(男性) stars who are delicate(精致的) and cute. Of course, there are also people who still like the traditional male image of being muscular and strong.This topic caused some discussion across China in September. It started when CCTV invited four young actors to perform on First Class for the New Term, an educational TV show for primary and middle school students. The four actors all looked feminine(女性化的)and wearing makeup.Later on, criticism(批评) of their looks was everywhere on the Internet. Some called the actors niangpao. Many parents believe that this kind of soft male image is in poor taste and could have a bad influence on their child development.As male stars, they pay too much attention on their looks and fail to set good examples for teenagers,Xinhua said, If men all look or do like this, China will never become the strong and great country as it hopes to be, Xinhua added.
