I have been very lucky to make many trips to China. Though I have had some trouble with the language,I have never had a problem I couldn’t solve. As a native English speaker (土生土長(zhǎng)的說(shuō)英語(yǔ)的人) ,I can go almost everywhere in the world and find someone to communicate with. I never thought that someone who speaks only Chinese would have a lot of trouble in my country.

   Recently,the King family that I had met in China moved to Canada. I met them at the airport. My wife and I made meals for them and showed them around where we live. Everything seemed to go smoothly for the first two days as we looked for a car for them,showed them the way to different stores and the nearest city,Victoria. Mr and Mrs King had a two-year-old son and soon we became Nainai (grandmother) and Yeye  ( grandfather) . We were having a good time but we didn't realize Mr King can't speak English.

    Luckily,Mrs King can speak very good English. Many people with Chinese background live near US. In fact,none of them speak Chinese. Mr King can't even buy a mobile phone without his wife's help. He can't talk to me,of course. By the third day,he felt lonely and worried. And on the fourth day,we decided to take them to a large Chinese community.

     Now,we often visit them and they visit US too. Sometimes Mrs King would still like to live near US but Mr. King cannot. I feel bad because he seems very nice and smart but I can't talk with him. It seems that neither of US will learn the other's language because of our ages. Maybe we will never have a friendly conversation. But we will think of each other as friends.
