Immigration

高校の先生と、昨日、今日と。

バッテリーがどうのこうの、と昨日いっていたけど、買いにいって事なきを得たそうです。

明るい先生なのでレッスンが楽しいですね〜。

 

1. Second-generation is used to refer to the children of people who immigrated to a country.

 

My wife, Kyoko, is a second-generation Japanese American.

 

2. A go-getter refers to someone who is very hardworking and determined to succeed.

 

She’s a go-getter. Aside from working as a secretary at an office, she has two other part-time jobs.

 

3. A stereotype refers to a widely held but oversimplified image of a particular kind of person or thing.

 

Many people think that all Americans eat steak and own a gun, but that’s just a stereotype.
