If you speak to Benjamin K.hammer on the phone, you would think you were talking to a person who had lived in a Chinese-speaking environment since childhood, as he uses Mandarin?s four tones correctly.

But Hammer started learning Mandarin when he was a high school senior in San Jose,California. Since there were no Chinese-related courses at his high school in the 1990s, Hammer studied Mandarin in a community school?s night classes.

“In the United States, people are curious about Eastern culture, such as the culture of religion, Kung fu and traditional Chinese medicine,” Hammer said.

Hammer is one of the US citizens who show a great interest in Chinese culture.In addition to Mandarin, he learned Kung fu from a Chinese teacher when he was a student at American University in Washington.He got his Chinese name, Meng Weilong, from his Kung fu teacher. At American university, Hammer majored in (专业主修) international relations, and selected Chinese as his foreign language without any hesitation. From then on, Hammer spent more time and effort in learning Chinese than he did on his major.

“Chinese and English belong to different language families. Learning Chinese is a great challenge, but I do like it. It?s rare that a Western foreigner can speak Chinese very well. I believe learning Chinese, rather than Spanish, can make me stand out from my friends. That makes me fel so great,” he said.

Hammer received his master?s degree in Chinese Classical Philology(中国古典文献学) at Shandong University and spent another four years getting his doctorate(博士学位) in the same major from Peking University.

Now the 37-year-old man works as a teacher at the Advanced Institute for Confucian Studies of Shandong University in Jinan. He is also the assistant editor of the English version of the Journal of Chinese Humanities.
