1)...My uncle and his family are living in England.I went there two
years ago and I observed a really strange thing:during lunch
everybody eats as for oneself..here,on the contrary,we eat all
together:I prefer it...

2)..my cousin's family,in particular her grandma and her
grandpa,care to the appearances,that have to be respected in
whatever event:for example,during Christmas or Easter
festivities,they "put a mask" ,suitable to those particular
occasions. I'm not agree to respect always the form,because I
consider it an hypocrisy..

3)..my father is a policeman and he very often tells me how his work
carries out and what are his duties.In his office,for example,they
are in three people to have the same role,that of "Assistente
capo",but in reality the other two colleagues have him as reference.
That doesn't mean that my father is their superior..

4)..Since I am an anxious person,in particular,cases I don't succeed
very often to manage the situation,because I'm confused and I become
upset and so I lose my self control..

5)..To learn a new language, at school we are used to study in particular
the grammar, to read texts and to do little conversations. To learn new
words or concepts, we often use dictionaries or we ask for questions to 
the
teacher. I believe that it is a way of teaching very different from that
adopted in the rest of Europe and of the world...

6)...Our teacher told us how some final exames carry out in America:
students can do them at home, using Internet,having limited time and 
they
can't apply to external helps. This modality is unthinkable in Italy,
because all students would be inclined to give a look on the 
books..Italian
students don't like to take a low mark or to be rejected to an exam, so 
we
would encouraged to take a look, where we can't do it, by a "good 
reason"!

7)..Apparently, someone,who doesn't meet me,could think that I am 
calm and
quiet only, in reality when I don't agree with something, I don't hesitate
to say it ,whatever the person with which I'm talking is, in the respect
limits..

8)...I, differently from a lot of Italian people, perhaps,don't succeed to
not make plannings, even if, very often, because of some unforeseens, I
don't be able to respect what I had already programmed..It is a thing that 
I just don't bear!!
