helping my friend's homework

the other day, I was seeing my friend's English homework assigned at Keio university.
when he asked me to help on it, I got so nervous from growing interests in seeing what keio students learn in their English classes and the fear if I can't understand what he doesn't even understand.

his homework was to read a few passages about characteristics of 'high-class culture',
and the passage was written rather powerful with a simple definition, explanation and an example for each.
I was surprised he eventually have to elaborate those two pages to a fifteen minutes presentation because I think it's so long! :o

I found the text very hard to understand and had to read it again and again to fully understand it.
by helping his homework, I really enjoyed going though the stages of understanding and was motivated to read more English books that are higher levels.
