quickly that I did not understand her most of the time.I was afraid to ask questions because of my poor pronunciation.I just hid behind my textbook and never said anything.Then one day I watched an English movie called Toy Story.I fell in love with this exciting and funny movie!So I began towatch other English movies,too.Although I could not understand everything the characters said,their body language and the expressions on their faces helped me to get the meaning.I also realized I could get the meaning by listening for just the key words.My pronunciation improved as well by listening to the conversations in English movies.I discovered that listening to something interesting is the secret to language learning.I also learned useful sentences like“Its a piece of cake”or“It serves you right.”I did not understand these sentences at first.But because I wanted to understand the story,I looked them up in a dictionary.Now I really enjoy my English class.I want to learn new words and more grammar so that I can have a better understanding of English movies.根据汉语提示用正确形式填空。根据汉语提示用正确形式填空。1.Do you have any _(单词卡单词卡)?2.Please read _(大声地大声地),I cant hear you.3.Your _(发音发音)sounds
