English text translation

Where I come from, we are very casual about time. If you tell a friend that you are going to his house for dinner, you can arrive later. It is very important for us to spend time with family and friends. We often visit our friends' houses. We usually don't need to make plans to visit our friends. We often just wander around the town and visit our friends as much as possible. Punctuality is very important in Switzerland. After all, we are a country of clocks and watches! If someone invites you to meet them at 4 o'clock, you must be there at 4 o'clock. If you play 15 minutes, your friends will get angry. Besides, I never go to a friend's house without calling. We usually plan to do something interesting together or go somewhere. Dear Laura, thank you for your information. Yes, I live a happy life in an exchange program in France. This is much better than I expected. I was a little nervous before I came here. My host family is very good. They make me feel at home. Besides, you won't believe how fast my French has improved. I am comfortable speaking French now. Although I will still make many mistakes, I won't like it as much as before. My biggest challenge is to learn how to behave properly at the dinner table. It is conceivable that the situation here is very different from that at home. For example, you shouldn't put your bread on a plate, you should put it on the table! At first I thought it was the most unusual thing, but now I'm used to it. You shouldn't eat anything with your hands except bread, not even fruit! You have to finish it and eat it with a fork. One thing in the movie is that it is very impolite to be full. If you don't want to eat any more, all you have to do is say "this is delicious". Besides, it is impolite to put your hands on your thighs. You should always put your hands on the table, not your elbows. I have to say that I find it difficult to remember everything, but I gradually get used to these things and don't feel strange anymore. I will write to you as soon as possible and tell you more about life in France. I hope you have a happy school year. Wang Kun is exhausted. I must type one word at a time.
