Last year, I did not like my English class. Every class was like a bad dream. The teacher spoke very quickly and I couldn't understand her most of the time. I was afraid to ask questions because I didn't know how to read the words correctly. I just hid behind my textbook and never said anything in class.
Then one day I watched an English movie—Toy Story. I fell in love with this exciting and funny movie. So I began to watch other English movies, too. Although(尽管) I understood I could get the meaning by listening for just the key words. I found out that listening to something interesting is the secret to the language learning. I also learned some useful sentences like "It's a piece of cake"or "It serves you right. I did not understand these at first. But because I wanted to understand the story, I looked them up in a dictionary(字典).
Now I really enjoy my English class. Do you want to learn English like this?
