I think the three life stories that Steve Jobs has said are quite reasonable in his sense. Perhaps my life experience is not enough, so I can not produce good resonance, but I admire him that he find his goal at seventeen years old. I hope I also can find my future goal as soon as possible.

Why you
likes the song?
In fact, come into contact with this song was an accident, because I am not concerned about the news of English songs. Therefore, almost all knew the English song that is known from Twitch broadcaster*. At that time, I was listening to a favorite Twitch broadcaster group, LNG Workshop. Their members, Wannasinging and Niaws, were chanting the song, Lucky. The moment I thought this song was very brisk rhythm, plus I liked the two Twitch broadcasters singing. So after a few days, I went to YouTube to found the day of the video record file. Since then I fell in love with this song!
Compared to India and the British, tea has
been in China for thousands of years of history, brewing tea is also very
particular about the way. But the answer to this question, "The earliest
origin of tea bags," is absolutely beyond your expectation.
This week teacher introduced a listening
training site, ESL Podcast, for us. In addition to listening to the 1241”Breaking an Arm or a Leg” in the classroom, the other part of the choice I
chose 1136” Missing a Deadline”. This site is very slow pace of reading the
article, I think it is suitable for beginners to use, but occasionally there
are exceptions.
In my case, if this article is full of
words I am not familiar with, not only hear difficult, also easier to give up
directly. The first time in the classroom to listen, I was almost in the
venting state, as if all the sounds are not listen to the ears, which makes me
feel very troubled and weak. Later, to seek the teacher’s help, she suggested
that I do not understand the word check dictionary, understand the meaning, and
then try again.
I think the teacher's advice a little bit
of help, but I am still dislike use of this site. My listening is not good, so
I am very hard to find ways to improve, but I found not only listening
problems, but also my vocabulary is too less. So when I listen to a dialogue, I
do not understand.
In this study, I was more aware of my
current need to improve the most probably is not listening to the training or
increase vocabulary. It is myself psychological barriers, the instinctive nasty
became not motivated learning.
Hello, I am Yvonne. I come from Changhua. It’s
a friendly city for me. I study in National Taipei University of Business, and major
in Department of Business Administration. Reading romantic novels is my favorite
interest. And I often listen to lyrical music or play online games in my free
time. My friends all say that I am a passion person but in first meeting I am a
quiet and shy girl.
Finally, I am glad to come to the class, computer
assisted language learn, in this semester. I hope I can improve English writing
skills in the class. Nice to meet you!
