dì qī shí yī kè mài kè xū yào yī běn zhōng guó jià zhào! 第七十一課 麥克需要一本中國駕照! Lesson 71 Mike needs a Chinese driver's license! An international driver's license doesn't work in many areas in China. You have to apply for a Chinese license because some of China's traffic signals and control systems are different from those of other countries. You will have to pass all theory and practice tests before receiving a driver's license in China.
