A group of us were painting on the sidewalk with watercolors when Mr. Chen passed by. He was our neighbor who owned a small bookstore with the most wonderful collection of children's books.
"Wow! These paintings are amazing!" He said, carefully stepping around them. He thought for a moment and said, "I'm going to have a book sale to raise money for the local library. And I need some artwork for the bookmarks. Would you like to help?"
"Of course!" we said excitedly. Mr. Chen had to leave but promised to return soon. We read a little about famous artists and began to paint. After everyone finished, we decided to look at each other's works. "Amy, your painting is fantastic. It looks like it should be in a gallery." We were all impressed by Amy's picture. However, I felt something strange. Before that, I was proud of my painting. But after comparing it with Amy's, I felt like the worst artist ever.
Mr. Chen came back. He looked at our works, "I truly love all your paintings. Each style is unique. Maybe you could combine them in a creative way. I'll use a program to put all of them together in one image, like a collage."
"But my painting is not as good as Amy's," I said.
"Your painting is great too. There's no right or wrong way to make art. Everybody has different styles and tastes," Mr. Chen said.
"Really?" I looked at our paintings again. "You're right. Each piece is actually special in its own way — even mine," I said happily.

九、阅读表达(根据短文内容回答下列问题)
Li Ming is from Beijing and is now studying at a university in the US. He shared his story of learning English.
Three years ago, I started studying at the University of California. After moving to a new country, I wanted to find ways to make new friends. I noticed that a community centre was offering English conversation classes. Without much thought, I signed up.
There was one class a week, each lasting two hours. Ms. Johnson, the teacher, was very energetic. For each class, she would teach us many new expressions. After each lesson, I felt it was too difficult to keep up. Luckily, after a few months, I got used to it. Between classes, I would review what I had learned until I understood it. Gradually, I began to realise that the more effort I put into English study, the more interesting I found it.
To make further progress, I planned to find a native speaker to practice with. The university had many international students, so it was not difficult to find one. Soon I met my new friend, Tom. He helped me practice my spoken English and go over everything I had learned in class. Finally, I made it.
Although there are so many idioms and slang expressions in English, I am confident to overcome any difficulty and become good at English.
1. Why did Li Ming learn English?
2. What did Li Ming think of his English classes at the beginning?
3. How did Li Ming make further progress in English study?

5. What lesson can we learn from the passage? Use an English saying to express.
