activity.

place. They helped me with directions and recommended places to visit. And they were
patient with me, even though I spoke Spanish slowly.

French in high school. So what was Mexican culture like?
W: It was wonderful! The food was delicious and not expensive. There were always events
happening, like parties and parades. The culture was very colorful. It was fun to participate.
M: That sounds great. I’ll have to travel there sometime. I have a trip planned to California
in August. I can’t leave the U.S., because I don’t have a passport yet. If I had one, I would
even like to visit China besides Mexico.
W: I recommend it. China is a great country.

More and more people today are going back to school as older adults. Why are people doing
this? The main reason is that they aren’t satisfied with their present careers. Maybe they are
tired of their busy, stressful life in business and want to be a teacher — a job that helps
others. Maybe they want to make more money. Or maybe they want to try something new.
To make these changes in careers, they have to return to school to study a different major or
get more education in the field they’re already in. But what are the difficulties of this
decision? Well, firstly, it costs a lot of money to pay for school per year. They need work to
pay for everyday costs of housing, food, clothing, and entertainments, so many people don’t
have enough time. Most people cannot quit their jobs and give school their full attention, so
they must take classes at night and find time to study when they can. Finally, going back to
school after not being a student for so long might be more work than most people think. But
to most of these students, it’s all worth it!
