  Recently, a video posted by an education blogger went viral online. The video features foreign high school principals attempting to solve an English question from China's 7th grade curriculum.

  At the beginning of the video, two foreign nationals are seen puzzling over a Chinese English question. The blogger humorously comments, "Americans can't solve a 7th-grade English question from China." Later in the video, the blogger adds, "Neither our high school principal nor the head of the international department could solve this question." At the end of the video, one of the foreign nationals laughs and remarks, "Learning English in China is really hard. Maybe we should learn Chinese instead."
