The teacher was very surprised and explained that very few Russians had cars, nor do they tend to live very far from their grandmothers.<BR/><BR/>Another time a teacher handed out pictures from a clothing catalog and asked us to speculate on what the people were doing based on how they were dressed. I got a woman wearing overalls. "Oh, she's relaxing on a Saturday, maybe working in her garden," I said. "No!" said the teacher. "She works in a factory!"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
