   A Foreign Accent外国口音

  Ying moved to the U.S. when she was 15 years old. She was born in China, and had a Chinese accent when she spoke. She didn't like her accent, because it made her sound funny, and people sometimes couldn't understand what she said. Ying also knew that people made fun of her accent.

  英15岁时移居到美国,她出生在中国,所以在她说话时有中国人的口音。她不喜欢她的口音,因为这使她的声音很滑稽,大家有时也无法明白她说的话,英也知道人们取笑她的口音。

  Ying's history teacher made everyone go up in front of the class and recite a part of the Constitution of the United States. Ying didn't want to do it. She asked her teacher if she could record herself and send it to him. The teacher said no because that would be unfair to everyone else. Ying then said that it was unfair that everyone had an American accent. The teacher told her to take classes to get rid of her Chinese accent.

  英的历史老师让大家在课前背一部分的美国宪法,英不想背,她问她的老师,能否她可以自己记载,然后它发送给他。老师拒绝了,因为这样对其他人不公平。然后英说这对我不公,因为其他人都有美国口音。老师告诉她要她去一个班级学习来摆脱她的中国口音。

  Ying took her history teacher's advice and took a class on getting rid of the foreign accent. The class was filled with people like Ying. The teacher had Ying and the other students pronounce things. After a week, Ying didn't see an improvement. She decided to stop going to class and start loving her accent. She shouldn't have to change herself. People should like her the way she is.

  英带着她的历史老师的忠告,去了一个可以摆脱外国口音的班级学习。这个班上挤满了人,老师带着英和其他学生学习发音。一周后,英仍不见好转。她决定不去上课,开始爱她的口音。她不该改变自己,觉得人们应该像她那样。
