How to learn English?


Most people have a biggest problem in learning a new language is their own fear. They always worry that they wont’ say it correctly or will look stupid, so they don’t talk at all. Yes, I also have this problem, too. How can I overcome it? I always try to talk to myself-“Never to do this again, be braved!”, “Practice will make everything perfect.” When you learn everything, please do it again and again until you get it right. Don’t let a little fear stop your learning.


There are many different ways you can improve your English. You can use as many tools and methods as possible. I think that surf the English web site is a fantastic resource for your English learning. Also, here is another way to learn English: to surround yourself with everything in English. Try to take note in English, writing in English, put English books around your room, listen to ICRT radio broadcast, watch English news- i.e. CNN, varied movies and television. Of course, you have to begin “Thinking in English”.


My favorite way to learn English is watching English films or television. This is not only a fun way to learn but it is also very effective. You can learn it to expand your vocabulary and hear the different accents. One way to improve your English comprehension is listen to English music and singing it. I also like this way to improve my English sentences, vocabulary. Studying English novels, memorized more vocabularies and doing exercises are necessary, too.

Finally, I want to say is speak it out, after all, language is a communication skill, you have to talk with other people, then to learn how to deal with people. Have fun!

Mission Impossible Job


On this Monday morning, when I arrive at the office. My boss told me that we have to emergent disposal all obsoleted inventory(totally pallets*325) within two days, no any excuse!! How come! I thought...we are just got the best quotation from buyer in this morning, and on going to define the obsolete process from system. Everything is just beginning for us, we even didn't prepare paperwork for application. It's really a nightmare, especially for the bad situtaion-the lack of manpower. I am so worried about it. But there is a word to say: "Rule 1: Boss is always right. Rule 2: If boss is wrong, please refer to rule 1."


I have to follow up my boss's instruction, and do my best to figure out the solution, it's really a big challenge to me, because I have never done that before. Especially it's a very big big money.... I don't want to get in trouble. It's really out of my duty, but I have to take care of it, because the reason of rule 1+ rule 2. Right?! So...I contact with other related department, con-call with them, then check with financial department for the correct process. Two days later, we tried to solved the problems... finally, we finished this "Mission Impossible Job" by today. God bless us! I want to say thanks for my colleagues, without their assistance it's really impossible to finish this job. I hope everything is going well.
