B:Why?

Intermediate:
A:Guess what came in the mail today?
B:What?
A: My acceptance letter to Yale!
B: Wow! Congratulations! When do classes start?
A: Freshman orientation is the last week of August, but I want to go two weeks before that to get settled in.
B:You are so lucky.Do you have to do many things before you leave?
A:Yes,I’ll be very busy.I have to get a visa,buy a plane ticket and pack my things,but first I want to register for classes.
B:When can you do that?
A:Well,they sent me their prospectus, so I can start looking now. Do you want to help me decide which classes to take?
B:Sure.What can you choose from?
A:Well,I have to take all the fundamental courses,plus a few from my major.
B:What is your major?
A:I hope to major in English Literature,but the admissions counselor told me that many people changed their major many times in their first year.So we’ll see.
B:What are the fundamental courses?
A:In order to graduate,every student must take a certain amount of classes in History,Math,English,Philosophy, Science and Art.
B:Interesting.That’s very different from the Chinese education system.
A:Yes,it is.It’s also very different from the British education system.
B:Really?
A:Oh,sure!In Britain,students don’t have to take the foundation courses.
B:Why not?
A:Maybe because they think they know everything already.Haaa…..
