“Let’s go to the animal shelter. Many pets there need homes. Since tomorrow is Saturday, we can both go.” she said.

word poetry to songs.
I sing when I feel good. When I sing my favorite songs, I feel better. Sometimes when I am listening
to music and to the song words, I feel that it was written for me. A good song always makes me feel
something. There are songs that I sing in my head between classes and songs that I want to sing when the
school bell rings by the end of the day. They help me get through the day.
They are like bright and warm colours in the middle of greys and shades. I like songs about love and
friendship. The extraordinary thing is, my feelings are more special when I sing my favorite songs in English.
I also like reading. I used to avoid poetry until an e-pal told me I should recite poems and not look up the
meaning of the words. Poetry uses many difficult words and idioms, but the best thing is to just forget about
them. In the beginning I felt quite strange. Now I always lock the door. Reading aloud gives you a strange
feeling, but when you have some practice and fall into the rhythm, the rhyme and the sounds of the words,
it is really a special experience.
I started with small poems, but now I think I most like long poems. I have different feelings with
different poems. When I have had a bad day at school, I read Keats and forget everything. when I am sad I
read Wordsworth by the light of candle. When the poem is finished, I close the book and my sadness is gone.
B. they are colorful
C. they are greedy
D. my feelings given by them are more special
B. a person
C. a piece of information
D. a friend online
B. poems are strange
C. poems are difficult to understand
D. I am special
B. We should first sing songs then read poems
C. Reading poems can bring people pleasure just like singing a song
D. We should first read short poems then long ones
B. songs and poems are the same
C. the writer fell in love with poems as soon as e-pal told him something.
D. now reading poems is part of the writer's life.

I'm Robert Lee, a senior at a Chinese university. I am planning to study Electronic Engineering in the United States this coming summer if I am lucky enough to be admitted to Miami University. However, I am a bit nervous about my English, so I am spending a lot of time studying it hard. I think my pronunciation isn't accurate enough to make myself understood, and I might easily get confused. Also, I find the grammar very difficult. Sometimes, I know every word in an expression, but I don't know what it implies. Honestly, I understand very little.
It is funny because I used to study English just for entertainment, to kill time, but now I have a particular purpose for it, so I have found a tutor for myself. My tutor holds her master's degree in education and is very helpful. She assigns me quite a lot of homework, and wants me to memorize all the phrases and expressions. She says it is necessary to practice as much as possible until they are fixed in my mind. And the more I apply them in real situations, the more natural they will become. However, I find it so boring to practice so much and I'm getting discouraged. My tutor also says language is a tool, and the people use it to express their ideas, thoughts and feelings, and all these are determined by culture. As a result, when I understand the cultural background, I can use the language better. She also asks me to read a lot. My tutor sounds like a professor, and I feel lucky to have her as my tutor.
My American friend Burt helps me a lot, too. He knows my problem because I have exchanged my ideas with him. He told me to relax. He said actually the most efficient way to reach my goal would be to have a tape recorder or a CD player. Either the CDs or tapes have native voices, and I can learn them by listening again and again and imitating the sounds as many times as I wish. I think this is a good idea. That way I' m not only training my listening comprehension but also my speaking abilities.
