I thought for a moment and then smiled because I didnt know what to say.Since then, I have discovered more and more differences between Chinese and US cultures.

However, in China, girls try every possible way to get their skin paler, or “whiter.”I also surprised by how hard-working. In China, schoolwork is almost everything, so we study hard.
