The national flower of the UK is rose. Japanese one is cherry blossom. How about the US?

The answer is carnation....
This is one of the popular jokes. Carnation have a secret meaning, car-nation. United States depends its economy highly on cars. So, they are called car nation. Actually, I have to get my car as soon as possible. Without it, I can't go anywhere outside of this town.

My most common mistakes have been "delete"; I tend to add unnecessary words and preposition like "that", "with", "from", "of", "in" and "the". I would like you to work on some more presentations in class, because classmates have various backgrounds and have unique interests. This is written English class, not Speaking...but it doesn't matter if the presentation are related to written English!
