Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. I feel great honored to be speaking on behalf of all the camp members. First of all, I’d like to express my sincere thank to all the teachers and host families which have given us a lot of help in life and in study. During past few weeks we have had a wonderful time and achieve a lot. The host parents took care of us, which made us feeling at home. But with the help of the teachers we have made great progress in English. Meanwhile, we have got to know more about western history and culture before seeing so many places of interest. What’s more, the visit to such famous universities as Harvard University and Stanford University that has broadened our horizons.
What they have gained from this camp is not only knowledge, but also friendship. I hope our friendship will last forever. Thank you!

Do you dream of the day when you can drive a car? In the United States, teenagers can get their driver’s license when they are only 16 years old, but it feels like forever until that day comes. Trust me, because I’ve been there.
1. But in my opinion, it’s worth it because it means having a lot of freedom. 2. and everything there is really spread out. So until I turned 16, my parents had to drive me pretty much everywhere.
There were several steps before I got that special plastic card. In Iowa, everyone can get their learner’s permit at the age of 14, which means you can only drive if your parent is sitting in the seat next to you.
3. In the state of Iowa, if you live more than a mile (1.6km) away from school you can get a school permit. You can only drive to school and back home. Luckily, I lived just over a mile away from school, so I was able to drive my mom’s car to school. 4.
Finally, after taking (and passing) a three-month-long driver’s education course and the final test, I was able to get my driver’s license. 5. It did in fact make life quite a bit easier.
A. I could almost taste the freedom already.
B. Still, on the day of my driver’s test, I was nervous.
C. The next step was to get my school permit at the age of 15.
D. Getting a driver’s license takes a lot of time and energy.
E. I’m from the rural state of Iowa that doesn’t have a lot of public transportation.
F. To many people, getting a driver’s license is a rite of passage (仪式) that involves a lot of luck.
G. But if you were caught going outside that route you would get in big trouble.
