“新疆”不是你听说的那样~~~

今天和同学一起出去吃饭，同学是内地到我们边疆来学习，而我从小在这里长大，也去过几次内地，所以我们今天的具体的话题就是内地人们眼中的新疆。。。。。。说道新疆，沙漠和戈壁是第一映像吗？对，这没错，还有山脉，尤其是天山山脉，天山山脉上常年的积雪造福这我们新疆人民，所以这个离海洋最远的省，人们依然幸福的生活着。以后千万不要这么问：你们那里是不是骑着马去上学啊？你是怎么上网的呢？有电脑吗？那边的人都是穿着民族服饰吗？是不是很落后啊？。。。。。。。。新疆有高速公路，铁路就不说了，有高楼大厦，有飞机飞往北京、上海。。。。公交车没什么稀奇的，打的很便宜起价6元，虽然没有地铁，但有很漂亮地下通道。这里正常上班，上学的人们有正式的工装和校服，其他什么品牌的衣服基本都有，只要是有全国连锁点，这里一定有其分店。肯定不如上海，想想，上海是世界上有名的现代化大都市呀！这里有47个民族一起生活，可是新疆每年犯罪的比率比深圳等沿海地区低得多。这里像整个中国一样在飞速发展，所以请不要问：那里是不是很落后啊？
