If you had caught me straight out of college in the halls of the Vermont State House where I was a lobbyist in training and asked me what I was going to do with my life, I would have told you that I'd just passed the Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi, the Chinese equivalency exam, and I was going to go study law in Beijing, and I was going to improve U.S.-China relations through top-down policy changes and judicial system reforms.
Da ste me uhvatili negdje baš nakon koledža u hodnicima Vermont State House-a gdje sam radila praksu kako bih postala lobist i pitali me što ću napraviti sa svojim životom rekla bih vam da sam upravo položila Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi, kineski test ekvivalencije, i da idem studirati pravo u Peking, i da ću poboljšati odnose između Sjedinjenih Država i Kine kroz utjecaj na javne politike, odozgo prema dolje, i kroz reforme pravosudnog sustava.
