Friendly Americans!

 

  When young Jose, newly arrived in the United States, made his first trip to Yankee Stadium, there were no tickets left for sale.

  Touched by his disappointment, a friendly ticket salesman found him a perch near the American flag.

   Later, Jose wrote home enthusiastically about his experience. 

  "And the Americans, they are so friendly!" he concluded. "Before the game started, they all stood up and looked at me and sang, .... 'Jose, can you see?'"

 

問:

1. 荷西是哪裡人?

2. 他來到美國哪個州?

 

Key word:

Jose  (荷西)是西班牙普遍的男子姓名,女作家三毛的西班牙丈夫也叫「荷西」。所以,這封信是在美國的荷西寫給在西班牙的荷西。

球賽開始前,總會播放國歌。美國民眾聽到國歌時,大家都要肅立、敬禮。

Yankee   Stadium (洋基球場、洋基體育場)在紐約,瑪莉亞凱莉曾在此舉辦大型演唱會。
