"Girl, you don't have class today?"

In the restaurant, a roommate, Li Ruoshi, a Chinese boy, was eating buttered roasted toast slices and drinking cloudy English morning tea with milk, and asked her casually.

She was unkempt and sleepy-eyed, apparently having just woken up and had just gotten downstairs with a mug to pour water.

Jing Hao nodded: "Well, it's really good, I don't have a class today, I don't have a class for this day!" However, the new tutor gave me a long reading list, so I only dared to sleep for a while in the morning and had to go to the library immediately. ”

Li Ruoshi said: "My biggest headache is also this, if you look at Chinese, it must be fast, one glance and ten lines!" Reading their book in English is as slow as death. You're going to hurry, right? ”

She said, "Hehe, I'm fast? Why? You've been here for years, how long have I been here, how could I be better? ”

"You're young and your language skills are strong!" Li Ruoshi said.

"You deliberately provoked me, I'm obviously bigger than you, right! I've only been here for less than a year, how can I read English books faster? I often can't understand it, and I read it over and over again! Probably the previous English reading was too limited, especially the long theoretical reading, which was too little. ”

Li Ruoshi said: "I can't read either. Now not only do I have to look at the foreign eight shares, but I also have to write the foreign eight shares of the paper, there is no way, I suffer this foreign sin! ”

Teacher Bai pushed open the kitchen door and joked, "If you are guilty of foreign crimes, you are still lining up." Now I call you back, can't you go back? ”

Ruoshi said: "I can't help it, I have to finish reading it before I can leave, otherwise what do you say I should do......"

Just now we saw walking on Broad Street, it was her, Guo Jinghao, a female student from China, studying in Oxford, England, studying for a master's degree in film culture, she shared a house with Li Ruoshi and Teacher Bai, and lived in a small house at No. 28 Hydry Road in the Beddington Hills area of Oxford.

probably started with Lao Bai, Li Ruoshi and several other roommates are also used to calling Guo Jing a good "girl". In fact, Guo Jing is several years older than Li Ruoshi. But if the poem is called "girl", the tone is as if she is a lot older than her. Jing Hao didn't mind at all, nothing to mind. She knew that Ruoshi was willing to pretend to be old, let him pretend, and everyone would be happy. Otherwise, you can force him to call herself a "good sister"?

When Jing Hao walked out of the restaurant with his mug, Mr. Bai also walked out, and Mr. Bai said, "Jing Hao girl, you must remember to help me buy a one-pound bus ticket to London today!" ”

Jing Hao said: "No problem, I'll teach you later, and you can get it yourself right away." It's actually quite simple. ”

Lao Bai said that it seems that there are some ticketing skills in Jinghao, in fact, a pound to London ticket is a kind of bus network discount ticket, snapped up early and coincidentally, you can travel from Oxford to London for one or two pounds, which is very cost-effective, and many people who have just come want to try.

But often a pound or two of tickets are snapped up, and these people run to London just to use them. When you go to London, you have to spend at least a dozen or dozens of pounds for lunch, and you often spend a lot of money to buy some discounted fashionable goods or discounted brand-name goods that you don't necessarily need, because you will feel a loss when you see a good thing at such a low discount but don't buy it. Usually I will stroll around in the evening, hurry to Victoria Central Station, run into the station snack shop or nearby McDonald's, hurry up and eat some fast food, and then rush back to Oxford at the designated time. If you miss the reserved car, you will have to make up the full ticket, ten pounds and twenty pounds, then the cheap ticket is in vain, so you can't miss it anyway.

Jing Hao can basically guess the general content of Mr. Bai and his lover's trip to London.

After entering Teacher Bai's room, Jing Hao asked, "What are you going to do this time?" ”

Teacher Bai really: "Hey, I don't have many acquaintances in London, and I went around because I had nothing to do recently." ”

Sure enough, Jing laughed, and she thought that she was like this when she first came, as if she had to use a few incredibly cheap tickets to enjoy it. A pound goes to a pound back, and it's only two dollars. Wheezing and jumping back and forth, as if creating benefits.

Jing Hao instructed Teacher Bai to finish the ticket, and hurriedly carried his schoolbag to the school from the path, passing through a forest, and the older tree was as thick as five or six people tied up. The sunlight filtered through the cracks in the branches, and birds chirped in my ears and squirrels jumped around in front of me. The squirrels here turn a blind eye to people, and it is true that no one has ever harmed these small animals, and no one has caught squirrels home to fry or stew them, so squirrels are not afraid of people at all.

Guo Jinghao's master's program includes large classes in the auditorium of more than 100 people, professional small classes for more than a dozen people, and individual lectures in the tutor's office once or twice a week. The tutor will discuss with the student according to the student's specific situation and problems, and provide individual counseling.

Harry has only been a mentor to her and her classmates since the beginning of this semester. This is the first time Jing Hao has gone to the tutor Harry's office to take a class alone, of course Harry can match her with the person on Broad Street, as well as the person on campus who is queuing up with him to buy black tea and sandwiches, but Jing Hao can't remember Harry's appearance based on the photos on the school website, Harry's photo looks ten years older, and she is completely incompatible with him, although he can be regarded as a handsome professor, but there are more handsome professors on this campus. Another reason is that she has always been slow to remember people's faces, and she can only recognize them at a glance after seeing them at least twice.

This time alone, Jing Hao was a little surprised, she found that Harry could actually speak some blunt Chinese, the meaning was correct, but some expressions were more funny. For example, he struggled to say, "It's good that you modern Chinese women are coming to Britain more and more to study culture, art, and politics and economy." "The pace of speech is really slow.

Jing Hao didn't know what to do at first, but quickly reacted - "really good" means "Jing Hao", "Modern China" means "China now", and "female" should actually refer to "girl" and "female", as for "research", it should mean "study". The explanations of the words modern, female, and study can be very colloquial or very written.

But he was able to say such a long sentence in one breath, and Jing Hao still didn't expect it at all. The British will say "Thank you!" "Hello!" There are more and more, but there are very few people who really know Chinese, not to mention that his major has little to do with Chinese. Chinese is a difficult language for them.

Harry also asked her in English, "Why did you choose the UK?" Was there any motivation that made you choose to come here? Why are you interested in things about British culture? How much did you know before? ”

Jing Hao swallowed. Some scenes came to her mind. Of course, she didn't know how to tell Harry, and it wasn't entirely because she longed for their British romance or pure love of art and personality that she gave up her comfortable life and interesting job in China and came to England, but because, indeed, for a reason, something happened that caught her off guard, more or less contributing to her temporary "exodus". She hesitated, did she say anything? Or rather, how to say? Can you explain it to him yourself? Can he understand? Immediately, she decided not to say anything.

She was sure that he might not even understand half of it......
