One Day with
Sophie Loring
Sophie Loring is an
American girl. She is 18 and she lives in a small town of around 8000 people,
called Pleasantville, near New York City.
She’s spending 3 weeks
in Italy, hosted by a girl who studies in Liceo Pico, Federica Zavatta.
Sophie studies in
Pleasantville High School in New York and lives with her family in the same
town, though next year she’s going to attend a College in New York and rent a
dorm. Private colleges are very expensive in the US, they cost around 60.000 $.
Sophie’s going to attend a private college, but through scholarships, she can
pay reasonable taxes. There she will study mainly arts.
She also showed us some photos of her
school and in my opinion it's really fantastic. During the lesson we asked her
some questions such as how we can improve our English and in complex it was a
beautiful experience because we had the chance to hear about New York's schools
and how is life there.
Sophie has studied
Italian for 5 years and she loves Italy and Italian food like pizza and
pasta. In her school the students
organize a Prom (that’s our end of school year’s party) every May or June. This
year her school’s going to rent a big mansion for the occasion and the students
are going to wear very smart clothes.
Sophie loves
scientific subjects, painting and literature. She used to play soccer in a
mixed team and she’s a keen reader.
We’d like to thank
a lot Federica and Federica’s mum, Professor Emanuela Manfredini from Scuola
Media Pascoli, who’ve given us the chance to meet Sophie and have this
wonderful experience.
