American Life

Today I read American Life, YL 2.2 from Penguin Readers series. America has many great cultures such as foods, sports, spots, movies and TVs and so on. Size is everything. Hamburgers and hot dogs are bigger than in Japan. People like to eat them. In one year, Americans eat 2,000,000,000 of hot dogs. 60 hot dogs for every person in the country. It's amazing! They have 'American Dream', they can have big house, a big car and a lot of money! So Americans work very hard. In addition, there are many special days called American Days. They celebrate Christmas, dress in funny clothes at Halloween. Many Americans don't work and go to school on Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthday. American's life is interesting.
