天干地支（Chinese Era）
The Chinese era is the symbol that the Chinese calendar uses for recording and naming years. The ten Heavenly Stems are: jia, yi, bing, ding, wu, ji, geng, xin, ren, gui. The twelve Earthly Branches are: zi.chou, yin, mou, chen, si, wu, wei, shen, you, xu, hai. After observing the lunar month, the ancients found that the moon always wazes and wanes roughly 12 times a year, and two lunar months account for about 60 days, so the order of the ten Heavenly Stems and the order of the twelve Earthly Branches are properly matched in turn. In terms of recording date, 60 years is considered to be a full time cycle. The Chinese era chronology was first invented in ancient times and is still in use now.
天干地支是中国历法中用以记录和命名年岁的方法。十天干为：甲、乙、丙、丁、戊、已、庚、辛、壬、癸；十二地支为：子、丑、寅、卯、辰、巳、午、未、申、酉、戊、亥。古人观测朔望月，发现月亮圆缺12次大体上是一年的天数，而两个朔望月约是60天。古人以十天干与十二地支的顺序依次相配，记录不同年份，60年为一个轮回。干支纪年法从古沿用至今。

Rebecca Williams, known to many of her friends by her Chinese name Li Baike, was born in 1980 in Esperance, a beautiful town in Australia. In 1998, around 20 years after China began its reform and opening up, then-18-year-old Williams participated in a culture-sharing event about China. She made up her mind to visit China, so she could enjoy more colorful experiences. She has helped dub several Chinese TV dramas into English and the English versions of those dramas have been exported to other countries, and many have become especially popular in Africa. She has also participated in various stage performances.
"More and more foreigners have developed an interest in Chinese history, culture and arts, from a young age. This is surely a result of China's constant will of opening up. Via my voice and my performance, I want to show people around the world that I'm good here, in China!" Williams says. (Source: Women of China)
