一個(gè)小女孩第一次去美國的學(xué)校上學(xué)，打扮得漂漂亮亮，沒想到招來老師和同學(xué)異樣的目光；被美國人邀請去家里吃飯，卻發(fā)現(xiàn)居然要自己帶看做的菜過去；精心為朋友準(zhǔn)備了生日禮物，可是卻被對方拒絕。這一切到底是為什么呢？如果想知道原因的話，就請你打開這本《英語背后的故事——Ovr Own Stories》吧?！”緯x20篇在美國生活的外國移民學(xué)生的習(xí)作，講述了他們在成長過程中曾經(jīng)發(fā)生過的一些故事，有誤會(huì)，有尷尬，還有幾分淡然的無奈。也許文筆有些略顯稚嫩，但正是那份青澀的感覺讓人讀起來不僅趣味盎然，而且很容易讓有類似背景和經(jīng)歷的人產(chǎn)生共鳴，堪稱青春版的《喜福會(huì)》。對生活在大洋另一端的中國學(xué)生來說也同樣具有很好的借鑒意義。
