Unit 1 How can we become good learners? sectionA 3a 第二部分 阅读 How I learned to learn English Last year, I didn’t like my English class. Every class was like a bad dream. The teacher spoke so quickly that I couldn’t 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 to watch other English movies, too. Although I couldn’t 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 to use sentences like “It’s a piece of cake”
