1. The first glimpse of the city of Boston
First, let me talk about my first glismpse of the city of Boston.
I flew to America in August of 2007. When I first landed on the world’s famous city-Boston, I thought it was very beautiful: blue sky, white clouds, grass and trees. The streets also seemed very quiet with few people and no car horns. When we crossed the street, all the drivers would stop to let us cross. I felt very secure and happy. I loved America at my first sight.
2. Who I went to America with
My Mom was a visiting scholar of MIT, so I went to America with my mom in 2007 and studied for one whole year. It was an unforgettable experience for me.
3. The one-month visit around America
Next, I’d like to talk about my one-month visit around America.
The school life in America began in September. So I had one whole month to travel. My mom and I visited a lot of places in America. We went to Disneyland in Alanto. We played in Magic Kingdom, Escort and Disney-MGM Studio. We played in Sea world. All of them were exciting and interesting. I love them very much. We went to Washington and New York. We visited all kinds of museums and learned a lot. We traveled from the great Niagara Fall in the east to Yellow Stone Park in the west. With my boyish mind, I felt excited and curious about what was in front of me. Everything was different from that of China. If I had to uate it, I thought the two words—big and novel.
4. Difficulties in American school life
The first day I went to Bulter Elementary school, I met my greatest difficulty. I couldn’t speak English and I couldn’t understand what the teachers and students said. When I was in China, I was a boy without any care. I had good friends; good teachers and I could make friends with everyone easily. But everything changed when I was in Bulter School. I had no friends. I felt very lonely and depressed in this new city. Fortunately I made a new friend Michael. He was a Chinese. And he had a sister Lingling. We often played together after school. Michael helped me a lot to adapt to the new school. When I couldn’t understand what other students said, he translated it into Chinese. And he taught me how to play “four square battles”. Then I could play with other students. Once I made new friends, I felt comfortable and had confidence. I am a boy without any care again. (What subjects did you like most?)
