22、 my staying in America, right Well, to tell you the truth, it is really an eye-opening experience to study here.In China, I had English classes five times a week since the fifth grade. However, I didn't know how different textbook English could be from everyday English until I came to Hotchkiss

23、School, Conmecticut.When I first studied English, I was told to say, "I am fine" when people say "How are you " But in the US, I found that people say, "I am good" or "Im tired."One day, someone greeted me with "What's up "It made me confused. I

However , in China ,girls try every possible way to

One morning when I was 16, my father told me I could drive him into a village called Mijas, about 18 miles away, if I had the car repaired at a nearby garage (汽車修理廠). Thinking that I had just learned to drive, and hardly（幾乎

29、不） had the chance to use the car, I agreed happily. I drove Dad into Mijas and make sure to pick him up at 4 p.m, then drove to a nearby garage and dropped off the car. Because there were still a few hours to be left, I decided to watch movies at a theatre near the garage. However, when the last mov

30、ie had finished, I was two hours later!I knew Dad would be angry. If he knew what I did, he would never let me drive again. So I drove up to the place where we'd planned to meet and saw Dad waiting patiently on the corner, I told him that I'd come as quickly as I could, but the car had neede

31、d some special repairs. "I'm terribly sorry that you have to lie to me, Jason.""What do you mean, Dad I'm telling the truth.""I called the garage to ask if there were any problems, and they told me you had not yet picked up the car. So I know there were no problems w
