Mr Smith teaches English in a university(大學(xué)). He is often very busy with work. When it’s summer
or winter holidays, he goes out to take vacations to relax. Usually he goes to
France because he thinks it’s an interesting country. And he can speak French
very well.
But last month he said to his wife(妻子), “I’m not visiting France this time. I want to go to
a different country. I choose Japan. But I can hardly speak Japanese, so
I’m going to study it for a month before I go.”
He studied pretty hard for a month, and then his
vacation started.
Ten days later, he came back. His wife asked him, “How
about your short vacation in Japan? Did you have any trouble(麻煩) with your Japanese there?”
“No, I didn’t,” answered Mr Smith. “But the Japanese
did!”
