The figures in these "Chinese paintings" with their full cheeks and prominent noses look for all the world like westerners who have strayed into the Prospect Garden; dragons look like serpents, phoenixes like geese; and to cap it all, the "Chinese characters" turn out to be nothing but farragos of random lines.
牆上「國畫」裡的人物，個個豐頰隆鼻，活像老外走進了大觀園；龍看起來像蛇、鳳看起來像雞；更妙的是，上頭偶一出現的「中國字」，更只是隨便用幾筆橫橫豎豎，湊合成一個個方塊的形狀罷了。
