Most travelers enjoy meeting new people, but sometimes you can be rude without saying anything.

I didn39。t like her food. Once I was watching something about cooking on TV and I thought I could do this, so I went to the bookstore and looked for the biggest cookbook I could find. During a year, I had made most of its recipes （食譜） and was ready for a bigger challenger （挑戰(zhàn)）. I wanted to create my own dishes and I started cooking for more people than just my family.

When I was ten, I wanted to work on my father39。s ship, Pa said, When Thomas was ten, he asked me to let him plant the corn. Garrison39。s throat （嗓子） tightened. I know I39。m not like either of you. Pa looked at the drawing again. No, you are like both of us. You work hard, like Thomas. And you39。re like me, too. I have wandering feet, but you have a wandering mind.
