What surprises will immigration to the United States bring to you?

Let children receive a better education, enjoy a more comfortable life, feel different cultural customs, stay away from the domestic noise and experience a new and better life, which is an important reason for most people to immigrate to the United States. So, what is real American life like? What surprises can you get from living in America? Perhaps after reading this article, you will know that it is not unreasonable for so many people to like America. One of the surprises: too little dust.

In China, if you don't clean the table floor for a day, a layer of dust will fall. Everyone who checks the hygiene is wearing white gloves. If they haven't just been wiped, they can get dirty immediately. If you don't wipe it for two days, you can basically write on the table and floor; If you don't wipe for three days, you can measure the dust with a ruler (slightly exaggerated).

The United States (and many other overseas places) is much cleaner and can't save much ash in a week. The house that has lived here for decades still looks very new. Houses in China for more than ten years are basically unbearable to look straight at, with mottled appearance and outdated colors.

Surprise 2: The sky is too blue, the clouds are too white, the moon is too big and the stars are too clear.

Since everyone has first-hand experience, I won't go into details.

Surprise 3: You don't need to bring paper when you go out.

In China, the last act before going out is to grab a bag of napkins and put them in the bag in case something happens. Not to mention that paper is difficult to catch when it is in urgent need (because it is not equipped in many public places), take eating in restaurants as an example, and some of them are not provided free of charge. Although it's only one yuan to buy a pack, it doesn't feel very comfortable, does it? Slaughtered? I feel that it is the most convenient and affordable to carry around.

I just arrived in America, and I can't change it for a while. When I left home, I was looking for paper. I didn't change the problem until several bags of paper were lying in my bag and were about to rot.

Surprise 4: no need to soak vegetables and fruits.

Cooking and washing vegetables is the biggest headache in China. I'm always afraid that it won't be clean when I wash it for the hourly worker. Every time I wash myself, my back aches and my legs hurt. The first step is to use blisters, but ordinary water is not enough, so you have to use rice washing water; Half an hour later, in the second process, I washed it with clean water, not put it together in a basin, but peeled it off one by one and washed it with running water. After this process, my waist is basically stiff. Then, in the next step, wash them together again and put them in the filter to dry for later use.

Eating grapes, strawberries and other fruits doesn't make people live at all. If you want to soak them, you must soak them in salt water. Strawberries are sticky after soaking, which affects the taste too much.

It is easy to go to America. It is easy to see that many people just pick up what they bought in the supermarket and eat. We don't have to waste time and energy in those three processes, just put down the tap and finish it.

Surprise 5: You don't have to queue twice to go to the supermarket.

When domestic supermarkets imported equipment, pos machine software was probably not imported together, and the functions developed by them were not complete, which made the domestic people miserable. Buy something to eat (vegetables, meat, fish, snacks, candy, etc.). ), you should queue up for weighing before paying at the cashier.

Several times, I also want to go to the supermarket early in the morning to buy some fresh vegetables and meat, and I want to line up and weigh them. I saw the winding team, which was more than ten meters long. Everyone was pushing a car full of things, and it was getting more and more crowded.

Surprise 6: People are so cultured.

When I first arrived in America, I was really not used to it. People everywhere are polite, but I'm a little unhappy and embarrassed to show it.

I remember working in a bank in China, and two young women quarreled because of jumping the queue or something. What a big deal! Finally, even the bank manager was alarmed.

There is also the matter of going to the supermarket to buy food. It's easy for foreigners to buy food, just take it and leave. I am very happy when I think of the scene of picking vegetables in domestic supermarkets. Not to mention the aunt who peeled several layers of Chinese cabbage and the uncle who took bundles of vegetables apart to pick them, he said that there was an aunt who peeled winter bamboo shoots and only peeled one core, so there was no need to waste her fingernails. Leng is peeling chestnuts one by one, which is very creative.

Surprise 7: Don't worry about returning goods.

When things are bought back, it is inevitable that there will be inappropriate times. It seems natural to return them in America. You can return what you bought from the boss, and sometimes you can return it if you can't find a receipt.

Thinking about the experience of returning goods in China is really unbearable. Don't expect ordinary stores, even department stores on Nanjing Road, let alone small shops and stalls. Even big supermarkets can't guarantee a 100% refund. Sometimes you can only exchange goods, but you can't get a refund. The refund often arrives several months later.

Surprise 8: The child has grown strong.

After a few days in America, it seems that the children are getting bigger and taller.

Think about these years in China. Children study hard every day and have no time to play. Their backs are bent, their faces are yellow and their eyes are nearsighted. Running to America is like a caged bird, running or jumping every day. Can it not be strong?

Maybe everyone pursues a different life and has a different view of American life, but objectively speaking, the American lifestyle is really enviable. Thinking about going to America and imagining that you are going to live like this, are you a little excited as a new immigrant?
