感想:Each step is important and each one takes time. No step can be skip這句話要裱起來時刻提醒自己,學語言也是一樣枢冤,不要妄想一步登天铝耻,每天積累一點點狈惫,累積起來就是一筆大財富两曼。在選擇聽力材料或者閱讀材料時也要根據(jù)自己的基礎(chǔ)來選擇,一下子從聽VOA跳到聽脫口秀廓握,可不是什么明智的選擇搭独。另外婴削,Inside- Out這點感觸很深,對待問題時總是往別人身上找問題和從自己身上找問題牙肝,其實是兩種不同的處理問題的方法唉俗,把原因歸給別人,就會一直抱怨配椭,把原因歸于自己虫溜,會主動尋找解決方法,更加主動積極地面對問題股缸。
