For example, if I am asked, Havent you had dinner yet? and I have not had dinner yet, then in Korean I usually say Yes, I havent. But in English, I have to say, No, I havent.Because of this, my friends often get the opposite meaning from what I want to give them. One day only a month after I came to America, I had dinner with an American student, Bob. He asked me some questions and I answered them sincerely. A few days later, I found some roommates thought that I came from North Korea. One day I stopped by Bobs room and asked why he was spreading the wrong information. Oh, you told me that. Dont you remember? he said, When I asked you You are not from North Korea, are you clearly answered, Yes, of course. Didnt it mean that you are from North Korea?The different use also causes problems between my friends and me. One weekend night, my roommate Mark brought his children into the dorm(宿舍). They make some noise while playing. I didnt mind the noise since I was just watching TV. The next morning, I met Mark. He asked me with a smile, Didnt my children make noise last night? Didnt it make you uncomfortable? Because I did not mind the noise at all, I clearly said Yes! The smile suddenly disappear from Marks face, and he said, I am sorry about that. They are going right now. See you later. I could not understand what he was sorry about, and I just said, OK. Bye! After a moment of thinking, I realized how stupid I was. That evening, I explained to Mark and said sorry to him. I knew he thought that I had been very rude.Now to deal with this problem, I have set simple rules: First, take a five-second break if I am not sure of yes or no.

This article will describe a typical (典型的) high school and its students.A typical American high school has several large buildings and enough space for about 1,500 students. Every student is given a locker. When students first arrive at school, they go straight to their lockers to put away or get their textbooks and to hang up their outdoor clothes. As American textbooks are expensive, students would rather loan(租借) than buy them. Students must pay back if they lost any of them.American students have different types of school transport. They usually take a yellow school bus or walk to school if they live close enough. Sometimes their parents drive them to school. When they turn 16 years of age, most take a free driving class at school for one term. If students earn passing grades in the class and also pass their state drivers exam, they can begin driving themselves to school.Each day, students take six or seven classes. They must take science, math, English and social studies. They can choose art, homemaking, fashion design and other classes. In some schools students are required to take one or more of the following special classes: health education, physical education or foreign language studies. Students move to different classrooms for each subject. This is because each teacher has their own classroom. There is a five-minute break between classes, to give the students the time to hurry to their next class.The regular school day usually ends early in the afternoon. After school more than half of the students are involved in after-school activities. These activities include sports-especially football, basketball, baseball and soccer or clubs, such as yearbook, speech, school newspaper, photograph or student government.Title: _in an American High SchoolOu
