My friend, Jack, is a university (大学) student.
Last year he went to Japan and stayed there for two months. I was surprised (吃惊的) that Jack could have such a long holiday because he never had any money.
"How did you stay there, Jack?" I asked, "I thought you could stay there for two weeks."
"It was easy," Jack answered, "I got work." "Work!" I cried, "what did you do?"
"I gave English lessons to a Japanese salesman (商人)." Jack answered. "His name is Yukio. We are friends now." "But you are not a teacher." I said.
"I told Yukio I couldn't teach, but he insisted on (坚持) having oral English lessons. He wanted to practice his English. He had a big customer (客户) in America, so it is important for him to speak English well. I talked to him for three hours a day. He gave me a room, three meals a day and some money." "Did your student learn much English?" I asked.
"I don't know," Jack answered. "But I learnt a lot of Japanese!"
