then, I have been learning English harder and harder. Our English teacher often taught us English songs, and the songs sounded nice. I often think how interesting English is!

We should learn it in the following ways: Listen to the teacher carefully in class, speak bravely, read aloud and have a larger and larger vocabulary, and then practice again and again.

How I Learned to Learn English

Last year, I did not like my English class. Every class was like a bad dream. The teacher 51(speak) too quickly. But I was afraid 52 (ask) questions because my 53 (pronounce) was very bad. So I just 54 ( hide ) behind my textbook and never said anything. Then one day I watched an English movie 55 (call) Toy Story. I fell in love 56  this exciting and funny movie! So then I began  57  (watch) other English movies as well. Although I could not understand everything the characters said, their body language and the 58 (express) on their faces helped me to get the meaning. I also realized I could get the meaning by 59 (listen) for just the key words . My pronunciation also improved by listening to the interesting conversations in English movies. I discovered that 60 (listen) to something you are interested in is the secret 61 language learning. I also learned  62 (use) sentences like " It's a piece of cake" or "It serves you right.”I did not understand these sentences 63 (起初). But because I wanted to understand the story, I looked 64

the words in a dictionary.

Now I really enjoy my English class . I want to learn new words and more grammar. Then I can have a  65  (good) understanding of English movies.

   Final exams are just around the corner. Liu Haoxuan, 14, who studies at Beijing Dayu School, is quite busy. However, he still had to find time to practise his spoken English. That's because he had to take a new English listening and speaking test.

   Liu is not alone. This is a new test for all students who are taking senior high school entrance exams(中考) in Beijing. Junior students have to take an English listening and speaking test that counts for 40 points on their full English exam. The test is taken on a computer. They can take the test twice – once in December and again in March –to try to get the highest score possible. The test was just introduced last year.

   During the 30-minute test, students have to fill in blanks, answer questions and retell stories after listening to different materials.“It pushes us to speak.       it was hard at the beginning, it's a good thing,”Liu said. He got a low score when he first took it last semester(学期). But he kept working hard in order to improve his pronunciation and other skills. He practiced speaking in front of a mirror every day. Later, he got a score of39 on the test.

   Liu Tianyou, 14, comes from Beijing Yuying Middle School. He has his own way to prepare for the spoken English test. He uses apps to take practice tests every day.“The apps will score your performance so that you can improve accordingly,” he said.“Also, the practice tests help me learn to take notes properly. They help me grasp topic sentences and connection words.”
