Isabel Wassermann – A new term and fun encounters, Taiwan December 2022
已經12月了。時間過的很快。第二學期也開始了。所以我有新的班,新的同學,新的老師。我的班有英國人,挪威人,立陶宛人,義大利人跟印尼人的同學,他們都是很好的同學。老師也教我們很多中文,也休息的時候跟我們說話。因為這次的班是水平比較高的班,我們學比較難的詞,也學很多好用的語法。我覺得這個學期以後,我的中文水平可能是比較好。我也想練習更多我的口音。 11月我們有一個星期的放假,所以我跟同學們去了花蓮,看了孔廟,去了夜市。在夜市我吃了地瓜球(我真喜歡地瓜球跟糖粉)。我們也看到了一位男生的狗,狗非常可愛,所以我們跟他說了話。他是花蓮人,有花蓮的口音,但是他對我們說了我們的中文很棒。花蓮的海邊也很漂亮,我們在海邊過了3個小時!去花蓮的時候也是我的第一次坐台灣的高鐵,我覺得又便宜又舒服,希望英國也有這樣的高鐵! I have really been enjoying my last month in Taiwan, and I can’t believe it is December already!…
