文章講解
I crossed the street to avoid meeting him, but he saw me and came running towards me. It was no use pretending that I had not seen him, so I waved to him. I never enjoy meeting Nigel Dykes. He never has anything to do. No matter how busy you are, he always insists on coming with you. I had to think of a way of preventing him from following me around all morning.
'Hello, Nigel,' I said. 'Fancy meeting you here!'
'Hi, Elizabeth,' Nigel answered. 'I was just wondering how to spend the morning -- until I saw you. You're not busy doing anything, are you?'
'No, not at all,' I answered. 'I'm going to...'
'Would you mind my coming with you?' he asked, before I had finished speaking.
'Not at all,' I lied, 'but I'm going to the dentist.'
'Then I'll come with you,' he answered. 'There's always plenty to read in the waiting room!

What forms of culture shock do people coming to France experience?
I studied abroad in Paris for a semester in college. I'm American. My biggest shocks were:
1. I never ran into any locals that were overweight. When I did see someone who was on the heavier side, they were clearly a tourist.
Run into 偶然遇見
2."Faire la bise," the cheek-to-cheek kisses that the French use as greetings. It was a very unfamiliar way to greet someone, and I often ended up trying to handshake out of habit and would get pulled in for a kiss.
That 引導(dǎo)定語從句
End up doing something
tourist attraction 旅游景點(diǎn)
4. No free wi-fi, either. Except for McDonald's.
5. Everyone dresses up, even for a trip to the grocery store around the corner. No sweats or Lululemons.
6. If you're a female, prepared to get stared at, kissed at, called at, and grabbed.
