Mr Smith teaches English in a university(大学). He is often very busy with work. When it’s summer or winter holidays, he goes out to take vacations to relax. Usually he goes to France because he thinks it’s an interesting country. And he can speak French very well.
But last month he said to his wife(妻子), “I’m not visiting France this time. I want to go to a different country. I choose Japan. But I can hardly speak Japanese, so I’m going to study it for a month before I go.”
He studied pretty hard for a month, and then his vacation started.
Ten days later, he came back. His wife asked him, “How about your short vacation in Japan? Did you have any trouble(麻烦) with your Japanese there?”
“No, I didn’t,” answered Mr Smith. “But the Japanese did!”

Boys and girls, here I will tell you something about my first trip to the USA.

When I get to Kennedy Airport, I begin my visit to the USA. First, I go to Roy Senior high School. I’m happy on the first night in America because I live with a kind family, the Edwards. It’s a big family. They are very friendly to me. They help me do many things. When I want to write to my friends, they buy stamps for me; when I lose my camera, they help me buy a new one.

After some days, I go to another school in New Haven. I live in the Palumbos’ house. There are three people in the family. I’m surprised that the parents are from two countries.

It is a nice trip and I’m happy to be with the two families. They will be my friends for ever(永远).
