I Got My Citizenship

(1) Taro: Listen
Hey, Amy! It's me, Taro. Long time no see!
(2) Amy: Listen
Taro... Sorry, I don't remember.
(3) Taro: Listen
We used to go to the same chess club several years ago when I just came to Canada. "Pinehurst Street Chess Club", I think.
(4) Amy: Listen
Oh, Taro! Yes, I remember. How have you been?
(5) Taro: Listen
I'm doing alright. How about you?
(6) Amy: Listen
I'm very well. I remember you barely spoke any English. Now, you are [vocab word=fluent]fluent[/vocab]!
(7) Taro: Listen
Thanks. But I still have a lot to learn. I finally got my Canadian [vocab word=citizenship]citizenship[/vocab], though.
(8) Amy: Listen
Congratulations! That's a [vocab word=tremendous]tremendous[/vocab] [vocab word=accomplishment]accomplishment[/vocab]!
(9) Taro: Listen
Thank you!
(10) Amy: Listen
What did you have to do to earn the citizenship?
(11) Taro: Listen
Well, before I came to Canada, I had to [vocab word=apply]apply[/vocab] for [vocab word=permanent resident]permanent resident[/vocab] status. After I came here, I had to study English and pass the citizenship test.
(12) Amy: Listen
Was the citizenship test hard?
(13) Taro: Listen
No, not really. It was about your rights and responsibilities as a Canadian citizen. I lived here for 5 years, so I was familiar with the Canadian [vocab word=law]law[/vocab] and citizenship rights already.
(14) Amy: Listen
That's impressive. What was your main reason for coming to Canada? Was it the weather?
(15) Taro: Listen
Well, not really. I just can't get used to the Canadian winter!
(16) Amy: Listen
Oh. Was it the environment, the national parks, and many places to [vocab word=camp]camp[/vocab] and bike?
(17) Taro: Listen
I love [vocab word=hike]hiking[/vocab] and camping, and I love the large conservation areas in Canada. But, that's not the main reason.
(18) Amy: Listen
Oh. Was it the [vocab word=multiculturalism]multiculturalism[/vocab] and our [vocab word=diverse]diverse[/vocab] population?
(19) Taro: Listen
There are many people from different countries, and I can enjoy different cultural events and cuisines. But, that's not the main reason.
(20) Amy: Listen
So, what was the main reason?
(21) Taro: Listen
My main reason was the Canadian [vocab word=maple syrup]maple syrup[/vocab] and Canadian bacon! I gained 40 kilos since coming to Canada. Can you believe I used to run tracks? Nowadays, I'd be lucky to run from my kitchen to the living room without tripping over!
