Chapter 59: Life Practice Lessons

After chatting with his 'little fellow' with an accent full of the rich taste of black earth, Kim Hyun-tae easily narrowed the distance between him and Yang Weiwei, and at the same time, Kim Hyun-tae made witty remarks from time to time, making the little girl laugh 'haha'.

Of course, when he chatted with Yang Weiwei, the two of them used Chinese, and the other classmates couldn't understand it, so they could only look at it curiously and confused, but they just saw that the two were chatting happily.

After all, the little girl is still very simple, so when chatting with Kim Hyun Tae, it was easy for Kim Hyun Tae to take out her personal information and let Kim Hyun Tae understand her personal situation.

According to Yang Weiwei, her father is a small county official in Huaxia, and her mother also has a public office in the county, so the reason why she was able to come to the United States to study is a little complicated.

In this regard, Kim Hyun Tae basically has a preliminary judgment.

Kim Hyun-tae has no interest in Yang Weiwei's family background or anything, as for how she was able to come to the United States to study and enter a public high school, for which her father and mother made great efforts, Kim Hyun-tae didn't want to explore.

After all, Kim Hyun-tae felt that it was useless to explore these things on his own.

"You're such an interesting person, a mouth is an authentic Northeast dialect, I think even if you go to our Huaxia to talk to someone, the other party will not necessarily know that you are an American. ”

Yang Weiwei is not wrong in what she said, because Kim Hyun-tae's northeast accent is too authentic.

The rich Northeast 'Da Chazi' flavor, as long as he opens his mouth, he can spray out, allowing you to appreciate what is the way of Northeast 'silver'.

And in this regard, Yang Weiwei is not surprised at all.

Because there is indeed such a situation in China, for example, a foreigner can learn to speak the local language fluently after staying in China for a long time.

For example, foreigners in Xi'an can speak Xi'an, in Chongqing they can speak Sichuan, and even foreigners in Guangdong can also speak Cantonese, which is a common thing.

Therefore, Kim Hyun-tae and the Northeast master who went to the United States learned the Northeast dialect, which is a very normal thing in Yang Weiwei's opinion.

At this time, the teacher walked into the classroom, and the small talk between Yang Weiwei and Kim Hyun Tae came to an end.

"You're a very interesting person, if you have time, and you're willing to make friends, I can introduce you to some people, all of them are from China, international students studying at Monica University, and of course there are some local Chinese, how about it?"

Kim Hyun-tae thought about it for a while, and then agreed with a smile.

"No problem, I can come to your party when I have time. ”

It's also a good idea to get in touch with the Chinese community circle at Monica University and expand your circle of friends.

I'm only in the 11th grade (sophomore year of high school) now, and it's clear that I'm going to study for two years in the future.

So in the past two years of high school life, it is a good choice for me to live a more colorful life and make more friends.

Although Chinese students, as well as local Chinese students, usually give people the impression of being dead students, plus unsociable, and snowboarding, etc., Kim Hyun-tae is very clear that this is mainly due to the cultural differences between the East and the West.

The fact is that when Chinese students or local Chinese students get together, everyone is still very good at playing.

Of course, Chinese students and local Chinese students should be treated separately, and compared with the group of Chinese students, local Chinese students are more powerful, so Kim Hyun-tae is very uninterested in the local Chinese group.

In particular, the local Chinese community, most of whom immigrated to the United States from the Bay area, ...... Hehe, everyone understands.

Therefore, in the face of Yang Weiwei's kindness, Kim Hyun-tae did not refuse, and even decided that the time was much shorter than measuring Omar's invitation to join the brotherhood.

Come to think of it, it's not the same at all.

In the afternoon, there are two classes, both of which are not cultural classes, the first is a separate practical life skills class for boys and girls, such as cooking skills for girls and car repair for boys.

That's right, in American college courses, there are such life skills practice courses, and even in the time and space where Kim Hyun Tae lived in his previous life, such courses exist in American college courses.

It's just that in recent years in the time and space of Kim Hyun-tae's previous life, these courses have been canceled by more than 60% of schools in the United States, and only 40% of college education is still retained, and there has been no cancellation in this time and space.

And the reason why there is such a course, and some of the factors that are included in the education curriculum of colleges and universities, Kim Hyun-tae still knows a little more.

Because he was going to study in high school in this time and space, Kim Hyun-tae learned some relevant information about high school education through the Internet before he registered.

In general, there are two major groups of students enrolled in American colleges and universities in parallel time and space, and because of these two groups, schools will inevitably offer this kind of life skills course.

These two groups of students, part of them are preparing to go to university and want to continue their studies. The other part is that after graduating from high school, I plan to start looking for a job.

Life skills courses are obviously not so important for this group of students who are going to college, but they are very useful for students who plan to start looking for a job after high school.

In the original time and space, most of the Chinese people, including Kim Hyun-tae, every time they saw those American family men in American film and television dramas, they would do a lot of things, and they felt that these guys were too powerful, they were simply omnipotent.

Now Kim Hyun-tae fully understands how wrong he thinks of people as 'omnipotent', when in fact they know so much after receiving this kind of life skills course in school, and can fix cars, run sewers, and plank wood......

And there is also the most important and critical factor, that is, whether in the original time and space, or in the United States in this parallel time and space, the salary to hire people to do things is very high, that is, labor is expensive.

So, this forces everyone to do a lot of things by themselves, which is also a way to save money.

Kim Hyun-tae came to this time and space and learned about American high schools before he slowly learned about them.

In the past, he couldn't figure out the doorway.

Through this first class in the afternoon, Kim Hyun-tae understood why American men know so much about cars, and dare to teach car repair at the school, so do you say they don't understand.

That's good, high school also includes auto repair majors!

Kim Hyun-tae felt a little crying and laughing at this.

Of course, studying in public colleges and universities has a wide range of learning things, including the knowledge and practice of these life skills, mainly to enable students to have a skill in the future and at the same time strengthen their own capital in society.

If you change to a private high school, you won't have this kind of course.

Because of a very simple truth, students who can go to private high schools, will their families still be short of money?

Basically, students in private high schools have planned their future life principles, and they don't have to work as hard as students in public colleges and universities, and they have to work hard to start from scratch when they go into society in the future.

To put it simply, the knowledge taught in private colleges and universities is all about cultural knowledge, and management is the focus, which means that those elite students will be managers in the future.

And students in public colleges and universities learn knowledge and technology, and when they enter the workplace in the future, they are people who do concrete things.

These divisions made Kim Hyun-tae feel a little cruel after learning about them, but this is also very realistic.

Under the capitalist social system, this reality is also a very normal thing.

The rich man's world.

It is precisely because of this that there are many public high school students who want to go to college even if they have to take out a loan from the bank, because they want to change their own destiny and the fate of their children in the future, and hope that they can strive to become the kind of people who can become managers, that is, social elites.

For the first class, Kim Hyun-tae was not very interested, but just followed the other eight boys in the class to fool around.

However, his new friend Omar is very serious about this course, and every time it is time to practice and need to do it, he is very enthusiastic to jump out.

When Kim Hyun-tae asked him why he was so positive after the lesson, Omar gave him an answer.

"After learning this, I can use my free time to find a part-time job to make money. ”

Well, the reason is still quite reasonable.

The boys' practice is car repair, and the girls' cooking is home cooking, according to Yang Weiwei, it's just a simple salad recipe, which needs to be taught? Americans are simply incredible.

As a Chinese girl, although she doesn't usually work much at home, it is still difficult to make a few side dishes.

But when she arrived in the United States, she found that many American classmates were not as good as her, and even simple salad recipes had to be taught.

Despise, do not explain!

As you can see from the separate teaching of men and women in the course, this is very targeted, the girls' course can be seen as a housekeeping course, so that they can make some delicious food when they become wives, while the boys mostly need strength and hands.

Well, that's pretty reasonable, isn't it.

At least, that's how Kim Hyun-tae feels.

The first day of high school career is about to end, and Kim Hyun-tae feels that he has gained something from his first day of high school in a parallel time and space.

A black boy friend who is timid but will not abandon himself at a critical moment, a young female classmate from Huaxia.

Although there was a small episode at lunch, which made Kim Hyun-tae a little disappointed in his high school life, this adverse incident at noon did not completely disillusion Kim Hyun-tae's expectations for high school life in the end.

As long as you can ignore the occasional college 'bullying' incidents, to be honest, Kim Hyun-tae is still very satisfied with his first day of high school career.

"Hey, Kim, the second period is gym class, which sport do you want to choose? I'm on the football team, how about you come too? I think you're in good shape, you should be a good fit for this sport. ”

At the end of the first period, Omar took Kim Hyun-tae, who didn't know anything, to the locker room to change clothes, and hoped that Kim Hyun-tae could join the rugby team with him.

Ah, rugby, is it the kind of sport where everyone clashes with protective gear?

Kim Hyun-tae didn't know much about this kind of sport, but he was no stranger to it, but he looked at Oman's slightly thin body and said, 'You also play rugby?'......
