VIP Class Notes (Ash) [S]

You have been to Australia 3 times, what did you do when you went?

The First Trip

For the first time i went there , i went with my friends and also my family. and We just went there for a holiday traveling and visited/checked out we go through many cities in Australia like Sydney and Melbourne, but and we didn’t go to Adelaide.

The first time, I went with my friends and family on a holiday. We went to a few cities such as Sydney and Melbourne but didn’t go to Adelaide.

Why did you go?

Just for a holiday traveling, to experience/see/visit/check out another country see the outside world. I think thought Australia is a beautiful country and but the transportation is not very convenient and there is no underground. My mum wanted me to go there to study so we both went together she took me to there.

For a holiday and to check out Australia. I think Australia is a stunning country however the transportation system is hopeless, there isn’t even an underground. Mum dragged me to Australia because she was keen for me to study there.

Who did you go with?

My friends and also my sister and my mother.

My mate and his family and my mum and older sis.

The Second Trip

The second trip was is similar to the first trip, its almost the same, ,but this time it was just my mother, sister and me. Its just my mother and sister. Again, we went to Sydney and Melbourne, but the purpose for the second trip was we went for a second trip was because I didn’t agree that i will should go to Australia for a to study.

At first/initially I didn’t agree with her when she gave me the suggestion the first time. She My mum wanted to change my opinion/view/mind on the second time trip.

It was pretty similar to the first trip, except with just my mum and sis. We went to Sydney and Melbourne again. The main reason for the second trip was because I was not convinced that Australia was the place where I wanted to study, my mum was trying to convince me it was.

Was she successful?

Because Now that I am in grade 8, I think/feel/find that the study curriculum in my school is busy difficult/intense/hard/full-on and there are too many subjects that I need to learn. and i feel very stressful and i agree with her. It makes me feel stressed/hopeless and has resulted in me agreeing with her.

What difference do you see between studying in Australia and China?

First i think in Australia, there aren’t many homework and exams and secondly i think their way of taking lessons is quite different from here. They can choose the subjects they like, but in China we should all study the same schedule.

The third trip

My last trip is went there to study and there was an agent arranged me to go to the local school to study with the local student, in Adelaide. I went to Adelaide because I have a friend, he is now studying in Adelaide and he is the same age as me.

Stay in a home stay family, they were very friendly and there was a dog a very big dog in their family.

How did you feel after the third trip?

I liked the way their classes is and i want to study in there too.
