After staying at home for two days, I hurried to Shanghai to study. After sixteen days of intermediate interpretation training, I got to know many people and became more and more aware of my lack of proficiency, especially my vocabulary. I think my oral English in our school is still good, especially the pronunciation and intonation, but during my study in Shanghai, I gradually found that students in Shanghai are born with this advantage, so I am not outstanding in this aspect in my class. Even in this class of more than 30 people, most of them are not English majors. In the class of foreign teachers, they are obviously very active and more willing to show themselves, which I am not as good as them. When foreign teachers play games with us, they often say many rules of the game, but many times I don't understand them, so I have to ask other students to cooperate. Some relatively dead things, such as Professor Tan's translation class and David's interpretation class, are still better than some other students, which may be the specialty of Jiangsu students.

In early August, after attending Huapu's course, I packed my bags and hurried to KC. Lin's home. His family is Malaysian, and he has been in Singapore for nearly ten years. As he is from China, Noble Resources Private Limited. He was appointed as the CEO of China District, and his work place was in Shanghai. There are four people in KC's family. They have two lovely daughters, Jing En. Nine-year-old Lin and Jing Rong. Lao Lin is seven years old. Uncle and aunt can speak a little Chinese, but they can't understand any Chinese characters, let alone two little guys. In the villa area where their family lives, there are special drivers in and out, so apart from sending two little guys and their aunt to Wenhua Building, or accompanying their aunt to Starbucks, they are almost isolated from things. I'm not used to coming out of their house. For example, in diet, they pay more attention to health, without monosodium glutamate and salt, and eat a lot of garlic every day (garlic bread in the morning drives me crazy, and garlic is what I hate most). I found that we China students speak English rather stiffly, while foreigners speak English more concisely. For example, we often say that food is delicious and say "It's delisious" in English, but actually a simple "nice" can express all the meanings. In fact, in their family, I think it is more convenient to communicate with uncles and aunts than with children, because children speak quickly and their tone is more like the voice in cartoons, which is difficult to understand. So sometimes when I watch the Disney Channel with my little ones, I pay special attention to the pronunciation of cartoon characters. It's really difficult, and the English in it is basically incomprehensible. First, it's too fast, and second, the tone is too strange, which is much more tiring than watching CCTV 9 International. Sometimes I chat with my aunt, and she will educate me in many ways. She will teach me how to read newspapers. She said that too many children in their twenties like us don't know how to use their brains. She will tolerate my mistakes, listen patiently and communicate with me, so I am more attached to my aunt. She told others that I was her eldest daughter, haha. Uncle is very busy. I hardly see him at ordinary times. He was picked up by the company car when we got up, and he didn't come back when we slept. I am in awe of my uncle. He doesn't talk much, but he is wise. He can speak five languages and his English is very good. Only on Saturday and Sunday, my uncle will be at home, but I can't see him either. He is reading or dealing with affairs in the study. He only occasionally sees him making coffee in the kitchen. I just said hello to him. It's also interesting for foreigners to send text messages. In order to save time, they usually choose only one or two letters of this word, or homonyms, such as: see you=c u, your=yr, have-hv. I think the most fulfilling thing is that one weekend, my family took me to take the piano exam, because in Shanghai, we asked Uncle Han to drive to the Shanghai Youth Activity Center, and their family didn't understand. So I couldn't understand the notes on the wall, so I acted as an interpreter. Seeing that they didn't know what to do, I calmed them down and let Jing En go to the examination center alone. Hehe, what a sense of accomplishment. That night we went to a popular Singapore restaurant in Xujiahui for dinner. The price is not high, but it is really delicious. Oh, comrades, don't go in the future. Many living habits are very interesting. For example, they eat breakfast in the morning without brushing their teeth or washing their faces, and then take a shower after eating. They believe in God and eat all the food on their plates before going to bed every day. Hehe, there are many family traditions. There are also many China people nearby, and the neighborhood relationship is very good. Although every family has a nanny, the full-time wife will cook some special snacks and then let the nanny send them around. Hehe, my aunt's specialty is making tea-flavored and fruit-flavored desserts. She also taught me, but your family in China didn't have a chance to do it, because it needed many tools, such as various ovens. Hehe, there are many things. This is really an interesting experience. When I left, I hugged my aunt. We will often contact by email.
