关于中国60年的新闻，要全英语的

The spectacle of perfectly drilled soldiers, advanced weaponry and elaborate floats displayed in Thursday's parade afforded an unprecedented moment of pride for the Chinese at home and abroad.

"The moment I heard President Hu Jintao announced the start of the military parade, I burst into tears," said 49-year-old Inner Mongolian singer Tengger, who was lucky enough to be in the reviewing stand at Tian'anmen.

"It was at that moment that I fully understood the statement 'Chinese people have stood up'," he said.

Looking back over China's history of the past 60 years, it is apparent that, despite much suffering, the country has managed to achieve huge political, economic and social success, especially during the past three decades.

People's lives have been improved greatly, thanks to the country's rapid economic growth. Retired Beijing resident Liu Baoqi, 62, said she truly felt the change.
