Are you a crazy chocolate fan? Have you heard about Hershey’s Kisses? Do you love the movie Charlie and the Chocolate Factory? If your answer was, "yes", to any of the questions, then my experience will make you jealous (妒忌的). I just went to the famous Hershey Chocolate Factory!
The other day we drove from Washington DC to the small town of Hershey, Pennsylvania. When we arrived at the factory, we realized that this was much more than just a factory. The whole town is a chocolate-themed amusement park. The sweet smell of chocolate is on every street corner. There are even road signs that say things like, "Chocolate Ave(大道)" and "Cake St.".
As we were walking towards the park, Jason, our tour guide, began telling us about this quiet little town. Hershey chocolate has been a brand in the world over the past hundred years. It is the biggest company that makes and sells chocolate in America," he started. "I guess you get the chocolate in China, don’t you?"
I nodded(点头) without thinking. How could I possibly not know those lovely little candies when I’ve been eating them all these years? 
Jason went on, "The factory first started on a small farm. It developed very fast. So they built this town for factory workers to live in. Then they built hotels, hospitals, stadiums(体育馆), theaters and even museums with the theme of chocolate. Isn’t that cool?"
"Yes, a hundred times yes!" I yelled (叫喊 )with delight.

When I was a teenager growing up in Russia, I wanted to leave school and have my own life. The only way I could do this was to work in the local brick factory in my town, or get married. I was nervous when I told my father I wanted to leave school. I thought he would say, " No! You are going to college. " He took me by surprise when he said, "OK. We'll go to the brick factory. "
Two days later, he took me to the factory. I had a very romantic idea of working in a factory. ' I had imagined everyone to be friends working together and having fun. I even imagined there would be music and singing. I guess I had watched too many movies as a teenager.
When we arrived at the factory gates, my father spoke to the guard and one minute later we were inside. My father said, "Take your time. Look around." I walked around the factory looking at the building, the workers, and listening to the noise. It was horrible. I ran back to my. father and said, "I want to go home. "
He asked me, "What do you think of the factory?"
"It's terrible," I replied.
"And marriage is even worse!" he said.
I went back to school the next day thinking about studying hard so I could get into a good college. I enjoyed studying English so I decided to major in languages at college. Thanks to my father and our trip to the brick factory, I now work at the United Nations and my father is very proud of me. I married a very good man and my life is much better than it would have been working in the factory!
