24 Learning¹ English in England

 

　　I came² to England last summer. I have been in England for eleven months. I amgoing to finish my studies in England soon, and will leave for China nextmonth.
At first it was⁴ very difficult for me to communicate⁵ with other people inEnglish. Now I can speak English much better, and even³ understand Englishtelevision, because I have studied hard and my teachers and classmates havehelped me a lot.
I have lots of English friends now. Some of them have even invited⁶ me fordinner at their houses. They are interested⁷ to learn about China and Chinesepeople. Every time they ask me a lot of questions, I realize⁸ how little I knowabout my own⁹ country.

communicate 交流

在英国学英语

去年夏天，我来到英国。现在我在英国已经待了十一个月了。我将很快结束在英国的学习，下个月我就将回中国了。
一开始，我觉得很难用英语和别人交流。现在我英语说得好多了，甚至可以看懂英语电视，这是因为我学习很努力，老师和同学对我的帮助也很大。现在我有许多英国朋友。一些朋友甚至邀请我去他们家吃饭。他们对中国和中国人很感兴趣。每当他们问我许多问题时，我才意识到自己对祖国的了解是如此之少
