In one way or another, all immigrants coming to the United States face the challenge of adjusting their native culture and customs to that of the new land. Today’s focus will be on the recent edition of New American Voices, an Uzbek woman Hamida Monawar raised in Afghanistan talks about the experience of her own adjustment to America.
"The only problem that I had was the language, in the beginning. I was looking forward, actually, to just starting school. Although it was a very, very tough adjustment in the beginning, I enjoyed it, it was a challenge. "
Part of the adjustment, Hamida Monawar says, was accepting the American premise that everyone works. "Since I left Afghanistan and came to this country at the age of nineteen I’m working and going to school. So I thought this is the way of living. I left as a teenager and never worked, and then came here and I worked and they said, that’s how you live in this country, and I said, ’Okay. ’"
The clash of cultures is perhaps most evident, in Hamida Monawar’s case, on the issue of matrimony. "The only thing I think she doesn’t understand is why I’m not married. Being a mother, that’s her biggest concern. She doesn’t understand why I don’t want to get married. Because to be honest with you, I’m not the typical Uzbek, and I’m not the typical Afghan, and I’m not the typical American, so it’s hard to meet someone that mom thinks it is perfect for me, or my family thinks it is perfect for me. So I decided not to get married for a while, and then see what happens. "
Both because of her respect for her mother’s opinion and because religion is important to her, Hamida Monawar says, she cannot envision marrying anyone who is not a Muslim. But she emphasizes, he has to be a Muslim with a broader understanding of a woman’s role.

答案
With respect to the conversation, Jane talks about her problem that she thinks knowledge from books is not practical and can’t keep pace with the rapid development of modern society. Therefore, she wonders whether she is able to get a job after her graduation. Her friend Bob offers her two solutions to this problem. One is that she should obtain some diplomas needed for her future job. The other is to get part-time jobs. As for me, I would prefer the second solution, since the root of this problem is that Jane is confused whether knowledge from books can catch up with the rapid development of society. So, in order to get rid of this problem, she should apply her knowledge to practice, and in return, these experiences will make her know better what she has learned in class and from books. And these experiences encourage her to be independent and mature. In this way, the problem can be completely coped with.
