Last term I didn't like my English class. Every class was a bad dream. The teacher spoke so 1 that I couldn't understand her most of the time. I was afraid to ask questions because my 2 was very poor. I just hid(藏) behind my 3 and never said anything.
Then one day I watched an English movie called Toy Story. I fell in love with this 4 and funny movie, and I began to watch other movies. Although I could not understand every sentence the characters(角色) said, their body 5 and the expressions(表情) on their faces helped me get the meaning. I understood I could get the meaning by listening to just the key words. My pronunciation improved as well by 6 in English movies. I found out that listening to something interesting is the 7 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 these8 at first. But because I wanted to understand the story, I looked 9 up in the dictionary.
Now I really enjoy my English class. I want to learn new words and more grammar10 I can understand English movies better.
Here are some English study skills for beginners.
★Listening
Listening is a great way to improve your pronunciation and intonation(语调). You can start by listening to short stories for children because they are usually easy.
★Reading
Reading is a good way to help you learn new words. And it will also help you learn English grammar. Children's books are great for beginners..
★Vocabulary
When you come across new words in the reading, write them down in your notebook. You can write down the translation in your native language to help you understand.
★Speaking
While doing your reading exercises, read them aloud. You can also look for some articles on the Internet to read.
Learning any language needs practice— lots of practice. You don't have to spend hours studying each day; just 30 minutes a day for four or five days a week will help you improve it.

At the end of the season, the two top teams play against each other. Many baseball fans go along to watch the game. Millions of others listen to the radio or watch television. People seem to talk only about the result and the players.

I'm a bit heavy. I tried losing some weight by joining some weight loss programs, but it didn't work at all. What can I do? My favorite food is junk food, such as hamburgers and ice- cream. I hardly ever eat any vegetables or fruit. The car is very important in my life because I live in a big city, New York! I can't go anywhere without a car because I am too fat to move. I am not hungry in the morning but very hungry at night. So I never have breakfast but eat all the time when I get home from work. I am very busy doing my work every day and night. I can go to bed before 1:00 a. m. if I am lucky enough. | A. Exercise, even just walk. You need to move. Even a walk is quite healthy if you can walk for 30 minutes a day. B. Sleep earlier. Your body has a better rest when you go to bed earlier. It helps you to work more quickly and better. C. Eat more vegetables and cut down junk food. These are some of the hardest things to do, but don't forget that while cutting down junk food, you' re saving money. D. Always have breakfast. Good life starts with a good breakfast. Try to eat less in the evening, and then you will feel hungry in the morning. E. Don't let yourself be very hungry. If you cat something before you are very hungry, you' ll eat less. If you eat after you are very hungry, you' ll eat more than you need. F. Think twice about joining weight loss programs. Some of such programs couldn't work for some people. For those who truly need help, some websites may be helpful. G. Visit your doctor twice a year. Go to a doctor for some tests even if you are well. If you have tests twice a year, you can find the problem early. |

Macao is in the southeast of China. It's only forty miles from Hong Kong and it is easy to reach. You can get there by ship. It is an interesting place and it has a long history. Macao is a part of China and most people living there are Chinese.
The first Europeans to go to Macao came from Portugal (葡萄牙). More than four hundred years ago, the Portuguese went there to do business with China. Some didn't leave and made their homes there. They built strong forts(城堡) to protect the city and the harbor(港口). They also built churches, schools, hospitals and other places. Slowly the city grew. People from many countries came to live, and work in Macao.
Today many people visit Macao. It is relaxing to walk around and look at the old buildings and forts. You may feel you are back in the old days. Of course, some of the buildings are now in ruins(毁坏). The Church of St. Paul has only the front wall with many steps leading up to it. But it is still interesting to see.
