Good Good Study, Day Day Up
If you want to improve your English abilities, especially writing skills, let's work together!
I have not visited my blogs for a long time. Most of my paragraphs here were posted more than one year ago. After such a long time, when I read my blogs again, I found they are very interesting and all posting are with high quality. It will be good for me if I can continue my postings. Four years ago, I made a promise to improve my English, especially listenning abilities, before I turn to 40. I'm going to be 39 very soon and my listenning abilities are still poor. I can understand CNN news without many problems but I'm still having problems understanding movies. When the voices are mixed with background sounds or the actorsor actress is speaking too fast, I cannot catch a word. I like watching movies, but instead of watching new films every time, I found it is more benefical to me to watch old films again and again. For example, when I heard this conversation the first time in Fantastic Four, <"Susan, let's not fight." "No, let's".> I thought Victor Von Doom was saying "Let's unfight". That doesn't make sense, does it?
"Either we're moving really fast or not at all"
"It's very generous of you."
Ben: I need to borrow your car.
Old lady: The transmission sticks.
Ben: That's not gonna be a problem.
The voice of the old lady is mixed with background noises and I can tell just "sticks" but not "transmission". I had to ask my daughter for help and she told me it was "transmission".
