International students coming to the United States before United States misconceptions

【-Feature 】 misunderstanding: the United States who are in a restaurant.

Subject to the influence of the United States film and TV, movie scenes often is in the hotel, we think that United States person is not cooking, eating in the hotel. United States persons while cooking technique was bad but also not so regarded, rice or do it yourself. United States diet to roast and boiled, roasted meat shop sells have been cut, salad salsa is a product to sell, so it is really easy. However to meat loaf, is not so easy, not too dry or watery, neither jiasheng, cannot be burnt, not necessarily experience is still not reach this level of attainment.

Misunderstanding II: United States family feelings of indifference, adult children, parents and children is irrelevant.

In fact, where the family is very strong, the United States are the same. Many people think that United States children are very independent, reading University are teaching their laborers. University tuition fees are expensive, good schools are light year tuition fees over four, and rely on what can earn a part-time job, part-time job to earn points-of-living, money is possible. Scholarships, student loans are not qualified to everyone. So parents are still hard to pay tuition. We have a teacher to do two jobs, because her daughter's university tuition fees are too high, she had to work hard.

Always thought of United States persons not to old-age, there are actually many elderly people to live together with children, I met a patient and her son in order to take care of him, has moved to her there. Many elderly people in hospital, the children will do everything possible to, could not come, it will dial. Once a man to hospital, her four sons to see her, carrying bag, with shoes, I watched her really happy.

More let me surprise, United States of elderly also helped with his grandson, I thought the old man with his grandson is Chinese characteristics? United States life children, grandchildren too much with his grandson to also endless, we have a colleague break bring several grandchildren, she seemed to also be willing to do so.

Misunderstanding: United States who do not work, all day dining.

All wet, the United States is a country that encourage labour does not spoil, extra pay, a lot of people doesn't work. Our colleague, almost missed one job is done, either side to side, or do two jobs. We work three days a week, for four days of rest, this four-day white nor spend off what is not dry, the natural order must be in order to take advantage of it. We have sustained a colleague, on 29 at night, I have considered is not break her record, then think it lives matter, therefore, dismissed the idea.

Now Obama on stage, and many people worry that the United States will start to socialism, lazy person, as have experienced Chinese socialist but do not want to see this change. Who knows, we wait for you. 【】
