    Last year, I did not like my English class. ⑴Every class was like a bad dream. The teacher spoke so quickly that I did not understand her most of the time. ⑵I was afraid to ask questions, because my pronunciation was poor. I just hid behind my textbook and never said anything.

    Then one day I watched an English movie called Toy Story. ⑶我爱上了这部激动人心又有趣的电影。So I began to watch other English movies. I discovered that listening to interesting conversations is the secret to language learning. I also learned useful sentences like "It's a piece of cake" and "It serves you right". ⑷I didn't understand these sentences at first. Then I looked them up in a dictionary. ⑸现在我非常喜欢我的英语课。
