A lot of different interesting issues grabbed the groups attention in the gathering. We talked about how americans deal with different religions and how they respect them. Another interesting subject is that US citizens don't like to talk about policy. Instead, they care more about jobs and their lives. However, the thing that we liked most is abortion, we discussed the evil side of humanity al of the members of my group were astonished of some people's action regarding abortion and how they look at this issue. We all agreed that abortion is immoral and people should be aware that they have no control over the lives

International students should talk to Americans because that will help them to improve their language. There are many things that we like to share such as America's holidays, friends' relationship, and American students' future. All these things are very helpful for internationals. Talking to Americans has many benefits for internationals, and it is going to improve their languages. In my case, the most important thing that can help internationals' english is living with Americans families or at least with an American roommate.
