苏珊家乡有个习俗,同学们高中毕业后回母校的过程中,会举办一个回校聚会,像是老朋友聚会抑或是同学聚会.....

Suzanne:        And I love being back home. And one of my favourite things when I go back home in the fall is to go back to my high school for the homecoming game. And I get a hot chocolate or a spiced1 apple cider and stand in the bleachers and watch the football game.

 

Andrew:           Ooo.

 

Suzanne:        It’s a lot of fun.

 

Andrew:           OK, Suzanne, wait just one second. The homecoming game, what is the homecoming game?

 

Suzanne:        Well, Andrew, I’m glad you asked. The homecoming game is in the fall when the alumni or the graduates of the high school, the hometown high school, come back and visit for a weekend. And you get to see all the old friends and the old school, and watch the football game. It’s kind of like a little reunion in the fall.  And there’s a special game, and there’s also a dance on Saturday night. On Friday night, there is the football game. And then on Saturday night, there is a dance, and they even crown2 a king and queen of homecoming.

 

Andrew:           The homecoming king and the homecoming queen.

 

Suzanne:        Yes.

 

Andrew:           I’ve definitely3 seen that in the movies before.

 

Suzanne:        Yes, it’s very much like the movies. It’s totally like the movies.

 

Andrew:           Well, this is so interesting to me as a Canadian speaking to you, an American. Because at least in my high school in Canada, we didn’t have homecoming. This is something …

 

Suzanne:        OK.

 

Andrew:           That I’ve only experienced4 through the movies. So it’s really cool to hear about it from you, firsthand.

 

Suzanne:        Yeah. Well, high school dances in the US are pretty interesting.

 

Andrew:           Yeah, so let’s talk about it a bit today. Actually, our topic for this Chatterbox episode5 is high school dances. And so we’re just gonna have a natural conversation, chew6 the fat a little bit about this topic, high school dances. And, OK, let’s spend just a little bit more time on homecoming. Because I have a couple more questions for you, if you don’t mind.

 

Suzanne:        Sure.

 

Andrew:           So you mentioned that the school alumni come back and visit the school. They come home during the homecoming game.

 

Suzanne:        Mmhmm.

 

Andrew:           Now is this just recent graduates, or is this all the graduates that are still in the area? How far back does the alumni go?

 

Suzanne:        A lot of the times, there are mostly recent graduates because those are usually the people that are still around in the neighbourhood or in the area.

 

Andrew:           Sure.

 

Suzanne:        But if you are a graduate and you live there, or if you’re coming home just for the holidays, it can be 20 years, 30 years. I mean, it doesn’t matter. If you’ve graduated from there, and you’re around, come on by.
