Identification: Our airport is an interesting and busy place.
Description: It is located several miles from the city. You approach it by a curving highway
from the city, and the first thing you see is the passenger building. On top of it is the control
tower. It dominates the skyline. Alongside the passenger building are several low buildings
used for storage and repair of airplanes. Beyond these buildings is the airfield itself, a maze
of cementing runways. On these runways, resting like giant birds, are the airplanes.
Everywhere there is a rush of people, buses, and airplanes.

Youve studied English for several years. Youve seen many American movies
too. I guess you know a lot about American culture, right? Allow me to add
some more to your knowledge of American culture. In this short essay, I
would like to introduce you to three unique aspects of American culture: the
High School Prom, Buffalo Wings and the Amish people of Pennsylvania.
One of the highlights of high school life is the Prom. The Prom, which
usually occurs at the end of the school year in June, is a large party
that celebrates the end of the high school years. The Prom is usually held at
a hotel or some other large place and includes dancing and lots of food.
There is sometimes heavy alcohol use, which is illegal in most states, after
the Prom is finished. Almost always, a boy will ask a girl to be his date for
the Prom. The Prom students usually dress up in very expensive and
beautiful clothes, which they rent only for that evening. Unfortunately, there
are some girl students, who dont get asked to go the Prom by a boy and
some boys who cannot get a girl to agree to go with them. These students
often feel very sad and may sit alone at home on Prom night.

You may think that Pizza is the most popular food in America. That may
be true but Buffalo Wings are becoming more and more popular. Buffalos
have wings? No. Buffalo, which is in New York, is the city that made them
famous. Actually, buffalo wings are chicken wings and drumsticks, which are
fried in oil. After frying, they are covered in a sauce, which consists of red hot
pepper sauce and butter. The best place to buy buffalo wings is in a bar,
where you can also drink cold beer to cool off your mouth after eating the
hot, spicy sauce.
Your image of the United States in probably a place, that is very advanced
in every aspect of modern life. However, there exists a place, where people
choose to live as they did hundreds of years ago. They are called Amish
communities. Most Amish live in Pennsylvania. They are very religious
people, who live very simple lives: no telephone, no TV, no electricity, no
cars. The Amish travel in carts pulled by horses. They live a simple life, which
revolves around farming, family and the church.
Have you heard of the Prom, Buffalo Wings and the Amish people? I hope
this brief introduction to these lesser-known aspects of American culture (at
least not well known by foreigners) has stimulated your curiosity and helped
you learn more about our unique culture here in the United States.

One of the more important things Ive ever chosen to do is buy a house. To
make such a decision was a bit scary, but Ive never regretted it. The first
problem was that my wife and I didnt know who we should talk to about
the purchase. Luckily, we found two very amiable real estate agents to help
us. Then, we had to decide where we should look. The funny thing is that we
bought our house in an area where we werent looking! At the time, we had
thought we wanted to live in East Vancouver near Commercial Drive or in the
Capitol Hill area of Burnaby. A friend, however, saw a house near Main Street
in Vancouver and told us. It was, and has been perfect. One thing I do know
is, although I dont know why it is true, when you see the house thats right
for you, you know it in about 30 seconds. Even though it might not be
perfect, it seems people know what is right for them. For us, it was having
the light of the sun in the kitchen for breakfast, and in the living room in the
evening that made us want it immediately. So, as they say, the rest is history.

We bought the house and soon discovered that when the wind blew the rain
from the south-east, the roof leaked right over our bed! I dont regret our
decision, however, although it did take me years to figure out how to fix my
roof.
