我正在写,你告诉我,如果我把对话去掉会不会不符合要求
At age eighteen, I left my home in Brooklyn, New York, and went off to study history at Leeds University in Yorkshire, England. I didn't live easily there, for I had to struggle to get rid of the sadness for my father's death as well as getting familiar with the new surroundings. One day, I went to the market, willing to buy some flowers to decorate my dormitory. By accident, I saw an old man lurched with a bag of apples, so I went to help him. Later, I started a conversation and built a friendship with Mr. Burns, the optimistic old man. The next day, during our walking, he encouraged me in his way, which was truly unforgettable.
