They also got to appreciate the architectural features of shikumen buildings on Duolun Road and learned about the lives of famous Chinese writers such as Lu Xun, Mao Dun and Ye Shengtao, and the efforts of the young people of the League of the Left-Wing Writers in advocating revolutionary literature and spreading Marxist literary and art theory.在老师的带领下,同学们了解了多伦路的历史以及与多伦路文化遗产相关的故事。他们还领略了多伦路石库门建筑的特色,了解了鲁迅、茅盾、叶圣陶等中国著名作家的生平,以及左翼作家联盟的青年们为倡导革命文学、传播马克思主义文艺理论所做的努力。"This activity has helped me to understand Shanghai's old economy and history, and how they are related to the development of modern Shanghai. I see Shanghai as a huge metropolis, the economic center of China, and the link between China and the world," said a student from Russia.“这次活动让我了解了上海的旧经济、旧历史,以及它们与现代上海发展的关系。在我看来,上海是一个大都市,是中国的经济中心,也是中国与世界联系的纽带,”一位来自俄罗斯的学生说。An Indian student also praised the activity as "very rewarding". "I usually come to Duolun Road to stroll and take photos, but today I have learned a lot about the cultural heritage and historical stories here. I just learned today that the tallest building in Puxi, Sinar Mas Plaza, was built by an Indonesian conglomerate, and I also had the opportunity to climb to the top to enjoy the view".一名印度学生也称赞此次活动“收获颇丰”。“我通常来多伦路是为了散步和拍照,但今天我了解了很多这里的文化遗产和历史故事。我今天才知道浦西最高的建筑——金光大道广场是由一家印尼企业集团建造的,我也有机会登上楼顶欣赏美景”。
