the best ways 2 more English. 3 what Li Mei said.
Last year my English class was difficult. First of all, it wasn"t 4 for me to understand the teacher
when she talked. To begin with, she spoke 5 quickly for me to understand every word. Later on, I know
that it doesn"t 6 if you don"t understand every word. I was also afraid 7 in class, because I thought my
classmates might 8 me. I couldn"t always make a complete sentence, 9 . Then I started to watch
English-language TV. It helped 10 . I think that doing lots of listening practice is one of the secrets of 11
a good language learner. Another thing that I found very difficult was English 12 . So I decided 13 a lot
of grammar notes in every class. Then I started to write my own original sentences using the grammar I was
learning. It"s amazing 14 this helped. Now I am enjoying learning English and I got 15 A this term. My
teacher is very impressed.
