《English Translation》

小潘: Teacher Liu, last night I went back to the dorm from the library. It was already past ten, but there were still students, shop assistants, and people taking walks on the road.
刘娜: Were you scared at the time?
小潘: A little at first. But the road was bright, and someone was on duty at the school gate, so I slowly felt at ease.
刘娜: This is what many foreigners call a “China-style sense of safety.” It isn’t just a slogan; it’s something that really makes you feel secure in daily life.
小潘: So a sense of safety isn’t only about having no danger, but also about city management and school services?
刘娜: Yes. Another reason is that people are willing to follow rules. Chinese people often say “harmony is precious,” meaning it’s important to get along well.
小潘: I understand now. That road last night made me feel that Beijing is not only big, but also very orderly.
刘娜: Good. You can write it this way: sometimes, a sense of safety is simply not feeling anxious when going home at night.
