The Wisdom of Grandmas Jialin I didn’t make much preparation for the citizenship test because I took several American history courses when I was in graduate school. But when I see those grandmas, those who don’t understand English, and those who have never studied American history, they can pass smoothly one by one, I can’t help but feel surprised. In fact, taking the citizenship test is not easy. You need to understand history, geography, the Constitution and common sense. Once I went to a small Chinese restaurant for lunch and heard loud banging and throwing of pots and pans in the kitchen. I asked the waitress what was going on, and she said: The teacher went to take the citizenship test and found out that he failed the test and was getting angry. Feel sorry! What are the secrets of those grannies who passed the exam? It turned out that they wanted to take a special civics class for them, taught by Chinese teachers who knew Chinese. I got many archaeological questions and memorized the answers by heart. After soaring into the sky, the grannies realized that all their hard work had been in vain. "What should I do if I don't understand English?" "Write it down in Chinese!" "Let's give you an example." "If the examiner asks about Capital in California, you can say three steamed buns (Sacramento)." "Haha!" "If asked, 'Is there such a big place in the United States?' #30340;Capital, you can say Washington. (Washington). If you ask the first president, it’s Washington. “You eat two fish.” “That’s right.” This reminds me of the famous writer Wu Lingyao’s mother. She went to McDonald's and ordered French fries, and the clerk who didn't understand Chinese would give her the French fries. She knew cheese was "cheese", bus was "bus", apple juice was "apple juice" and the highway was "free way". But the grannies' secrets were not infallible. A relative heard a mother and daughter arguing outside the immigration office. The daughter seemed to be blaming her mother: "I have said it several times," Kang said to her heart. (constitution)’, you answer ‘yes’. When asked about 'prostitution', you just say 'no'. The mother loudly said: "This is a 'kick to the heart', and that is also a 'kick to the heart'. How can I tell the difference!" (First issue of World Daily supplement, March 4)
