Do you speak only English in the class , or does your teacher explain everything to you in Spanish ?
2

Oh , we never speak Spanish in class ! Miss.Parker speaks to us only in English .

156
I suppose she's right . Does she speak English very slowly ?
2
0
156
Not always . Sometimes we don't understand her . Then she has to repeat what she said .

It must be interesting to study English .

Is English pronunciation easy or difficult ?
2

156
Sometimes it's difficult . Some words look different from the way one pronounces them .

I think someone is stalking me .
1

157
No , it can't be . Really ? Who ?
2

157
I don't know . I saw him the first time Tuesday . He was at the cafe . I noticed he was looking at me a lot . Not just the usual looking , but staring.He just kept staring at me . He didn't stop .

What did you do ?
2
0
157
I didn't do anything . Finally , he left.But then I saw him again today . Outside the shoe store . Near the cafe . I went into a CD store and pretended I was looking at CD's . But then he came in too .

Did he leave when you left ?
2
0
157
Yes . Then I noticed he was on the sidewalk behind me . He was following me .
1

157
What did you do ?
2
0
157
He followed me all the way home !
1
0
157
That's about five blocks . And around corners too.So he was definitely following you .
1
0
157
Yes , he was . I'm not imagining it.Finally , just when I got home , I turned around and looked at him.He was just standing there . He didn't smile . He just stood there . It was so obvious.What should I do ? I'm so scared . Can I call the police ?
2
3
157
Actually , I don't think you can call the police . Not yet at least.He hasn't done anything . And probably the police will just ignore it.But if anything happens again , then maybe you should call .
1
0
157
Why can't I call the police now ? He was definitely following me !
2
3
157
Of course you can call the police if you want . That's not what I mean . I'm just saying that they probably won't do anything .
1
0
157
I suppose . What can they do ? I don't even know who he is .
2
0
157
Listen , Carol . Don't let this bother you too much.Probably it's nothing . Just keep your eyes open when you go out.If you see him a third time , and if he follows you again , then I think we should go to the police.But for now , just try not to worry .

Han Maimed , What's your plan for the weekend ?
2

158
I plan to travel around Harvard University and know more about it . To tell you the truth , I plan to apply for Harvard after graduation from high school . It ’ s better to get to know it . What about you ?
2

I get together with my Christian brothers on Saturdays .
1

158
Oh , my God ! John , I didn ’ t know you are religious . You just look like a scientific kook , like Leonard in the Big Bang Theory .
1
6
158
Come on , Han Maimed , don ’ t make a fuss . A lot of Americans , including many scientists , believe in religion .
1
0
158
But I ’ m really surprised . I thought science and religion are not compatible , are they ?
2
0
158
Yes , they are compatible . Actually , the U . S . is both the most developed and the most religious country in the world .
1
0
158
I've heard about it a little bit before , but I don ’ t understand . How can people believe in God since they know God doesn't exist ?
2
0
158
That ’ s a little complicated . You ’ ll get to know it when you are acquainted with the U . S . history later on . Religion was and is a part of American people ’ s life . Guess what ? Even Harvard University , which is a highly academic institution , is in a sense the product of religion .
1

158
Really ?
2
6
158
Absolutely ! It was founded by a group of Puritan immigrants from England .
1
0
158
Why was it founded by the Puritans ? Where were the atheistic educators ?
2
0
158
Because most of the first English immigrants who came to the United States were Puritans .
1
0
158
How come ? I mean why most of them were religious people ?
2
6
158
That ’ s because in the 16th and 17th century , there was a series of religious reforms in England . Many religious separatists were persecuted and fled to other countries .
1
0
158
So , you mean people didn't enjoy religious freedom in England ?
2
0
158
Yes , that's why Puritans moved to the New World , where they believed they could establish a heaven for Puritans . Later on , it was these Puritans who founded Harvard College .
1
0
158
Why did they want to found a college ?
2
0
158
Many Puritans had received classic style of higher education in Oxford University and Cambridge University back in England . They hoped that their descendants could receive this kind of education as well .
1

158
Oh , I see .

158
Actually Harvard was first named ' New College ' , without a formal name .
1

158
When did it begin to be called Harvard University ?
2
0
158
In 1639 , it was renamed after its major benefactor John Harvard . Interestingly , JohnHarvard himself was a clergyman .
1
0
158
It seems that Harvard was predestined to be influenced by religion .
1
0
158
Therefore , it ’ s not exaggerate to claim that had there not been religion , there would note Harvard .
1
0
158
Wow , I didn ’ t know that religion had played such an important role in Harvard history .
1
0
158
Religion has been playing an indispensible part in Harvard history as well as the U . S .

I finally begin to get to know Harvard . It seems that my knowledge of Harvard is rather poor . I have a lot work to do before applying for Harvard .
1
0
158
Remember that Harvard is a part of the United States . So you have to know the U . S . history and culture if you want to have in-depth knowledge of Harvard . The two are closely related .

What do you do in winter ?
2
0
160
Well , I play sports indoors quite often . If I ’ m feeling lazy , I just watch a film at home . I prefer summer to winter .
1

I think most people do . I like wearing nice , colorful clothes in summer-you know , a nice dress or skirt . It ’ s too cold for those kinds of clothes in winter .
1

Yes . I like wearing shorts in summer . My legs would freeze !
