Connie, is also Italian, but she was born in the United States. Mario and Connie are big soccer (football) fans.
But when Mario came to the United States eight years ago, he didn't know that soccer was a popular sport
here. The only American sports that he heard a lot about were basketball, baseball and football. He was amazed
to learn that there were many soccer teams in the USA.
One Sunday afternoon, he was taking a walk and discovered two teams playing soccer in a park. He
watched the game. Both teams had excellent players, and the game was exciting. When it was over, he talked
to some of the players. They were from Italy, Spain, and Latin America. One of the teams needed another
player, and they asked Mario to join them. He was happy to do so. Seven years later he's still playing in the
team, and he's one of their best players.
His son Sal is also learning how to play soccer, and he goes to all of his dad's games. Mario practises
with him and shows him how to kick (踢) and pass the ball. He's only six years old, but he's fast and can
kick and pass well. His ability to play soccer is amazing (surprising). "Like father, like son," their friends said.
And Sal said, "I can't wait until I'm old enough to play in the team at my school."
Last week Mario, Connie and their two kids drove all the way from Chicago to New Jersey to visit
Connie's cousins. She hadn't seen her cousins for five years, but the biggest reason for the trip was that her
youngest cousin was getting married. She didn't want to miss the big wedding (婚礼) and the family reunion.
Her cousins are also crazy about soccer. One night her cousin Lou was playing. It was the game of the season,
and the whole family went to the game. Mario and Connie cheered when Lou's team played well. The score
was 2 to 2 at half time. It was exciting. No one scored in the third quarter, and then with only 60 seconds left,
Lou scored, and his team won 3 to 2. After the game they went to have pizza and celebrate.

I’m 14, a year younger than most of my classmates.
A week ago one of my classmates, Nitin, asked me for help with math homework. We ended up talking about computers and file-sharing(共享文件). As we talked I found that he was more experienced and could teach me about file-sharing and networking. We went to his room and watched a movie about robots that he’d downloaded. The math homework was forgotten.
The next day he came again for homework help “What do you do on weekends?” he asked. The truth is, when I have work to do, I do it. I have no special time to kill with friends. I was embarrassed about this. I expected him to think I was boring and said, “Get a life!” He said, “OK. You’re having trouble getting along with people I can show you. I’m old than you.”
Later, he checked my computer. He even connected me to an Internet chess server(服务器).He was becoming like a big brother.
But when I thought about it, I didn’t really want Nitin’s help” His big-brother idea began to bore me.
“I’ll get you some cool computer programs(程序)”.
“I’ll teach you how to talk to girls.”
He meant what he was saying, but I don’t know why it didn’t make me feel good. Since then he’s hardly talked to me; we seem to have forgotten each other. I don’t think he can “teach” me much, and I don’t think much of him. But I could be wrong·
