关于种菜 / 数学俱乐部的颁奖典礼 我丈夫每年在我们家的后院种菜。他种的是很多种中国蔬菜，例如韭菜，以及很多种绿叶蔬菜，这些对身体健康很有利。我们这边的阳光很丰富，但这所谓“高沙漠”的地方很干燥，因此我们必须很认真地给植物浇水。我们还有五棵水果树：一棵油桃树，一棵柿子树，一棵亚洲梨树，和两棵无花果树。 我大儿子今天下午参加了他的课外数学俱乐部的颁奖典礼。这个俱乐部会跟美国全国类似的俱乐部互相竞争。俱乐部的会员其中有几个白人，不过大部分的会员是东亚洲，印度，或者中东血统的孩子。我儿子获得了综合第三名，我们为他感觉很骄傲。 (My husband grows vegetables in our back yard every year. He grows lots of Chinese varieties, such as Chinese garlic chives, as well as lots of leafy greens, which are so good for you. We get lots of sunshine, but it’s very arid here in the so-called “high desert” of New Mexico, so we must be diligent about watering the plants. We also have five fruit trees: a nectarine tree, a persimmon tree, an Asian pear tree, and two fig trees. My son went to an awards ceremony for his after-school math club this afternoon. It is a competitive club that competes against similar clubs from all over the US. There are a few white kids, but the majority is East Asian, Indian or Middle Eastern. My son got an award for 3rd place overall, out of about 20 kids, so we are very proud of him.)
