One day, my friend suggested playing a
game which called" Around the World in Ten Minutes". I and my friends
had to tell some information about a city. During the game, we talk about Paris , Beijing and Stockholm . At the end of
the game, we organized our information about these three cities. Although there
are many similarities between Paris , Beijing and Stockholm ,
there are also some very important differences in location, number of
population, size, temperature and weather.
However, while they do have some
similarities, they have many more differences in location, number of
population, size, temperature and weather. The initial obvious difference is
placed in the location of the three cities. Paris
is located on the River Seine, in the northern of France
while Stockholm is located by the Lake Malaren
on the east coast of Sweden .
Unlike Paris and Stockholm ,
Beijing is
located in the north of china.
In addition to their location, they
differ in the number of population. For instance, Paris
has 9.93 million inhabitants in their urban area while Beijing has 8.5 million inhabitants. Unlike Paris and Beijing , Stockholm has 1.2 million
inhabitants.
The third difference is placed in the
size of them. Unlike Paris which occupies 12.200
square kilometers, Beijing
has an area of 1.377 square kilometers. Different from Paris
and Beijing , Stockholm occupies 375.25 square kilometers.
Furthermore, the fourth difference lies in
their temperature. In Paris ,
the lowest average temperature is -2`C in January and the highest one is 24`C
in July and August. In contrast. the
average lowest average temperature in Beijing is -7`C in January while the highest one is
26`C in July. On the contrary, the lowest average temperature in Stockholm is -7`C in
winter while the highest one is 25`C in July.
Last but not least, The final
difference is in their weather. Paris has a mild
weather while Beijing
has a humid continental climate influenced by the monsoon. Unlike Paris , the winters in Stockholm are quite cold while summers are
much warmer. Moreover, Paris
can rain at any time in the year: its average yearly perception is 641.6 mm. In
contrast, summer in Beijing
is the rainy season and the annual precipitation is over 600mm. On the other
hand, the annual precipitation of Stockholm
is 539mm.
All in all, Paris ,
Beijing and Stockholm have lots of similarities. However,
they are different in many points such as location, number of population, size,
temperature and weather. If you want to spend your summer holiday in a city,
Which city you will visit, Paris , Beijing or Stockholm ?
