#9 Assignment



View on Vocaroo >>

True happiness is not about becoming famous or getting rich. What really makes us happy is relationships. Interpersonal relationships require long-term efforts to achieve and maintain, and are also closely related to our lives.

Professor Robert's speech surprised me very much, because his findings are in line with my opinion. He scientifically confirmed my point that interpersonal relationships are very important to us. Before I watched his speech, I thought that family and friends are the most important things in our lives, because the satisfaction they give us (compared to such as playing games or watching movies) is not easy to achieve, but at the same time they won’t leave us casually, and everything I do, is all for my family, I hope I can make them live a better life in the future. I agree that interpersonal relationships play a very important role in our lives and will bring us happiness. After all, mental health affects physical health. I am gratefully for the family and friends that always by my side. I hope that we can maintain a good relationship for decades to come.

#8 Assignment



View on Vocaroo >>

I think I am definitely a procrastinator,because I procrationate all the times.As long as there is something appeals me more than  the things that I have to do,I would be more willing to do what attracts me,and it usually is watching drama,reading a novel or playing games.But at the same time,when there has something that I should done but not be done yet,that will makes me felt very anxious and nervous.The panic monster is always by my side.So unless I completely forgot that there is something I should done,I will finished everything before the deadline.But not everything has a deadline,the things that don't have deadline is like a chronic disease,and I seriously ill.How do I deal this big problem?I set a deadline for the things seems don't have the due date.Before the deadline coming may takes very long time,and they also will take a lot of time to finish it,I may spend a whole college career or ever the rest of my life.What makes me stop procrastinating is I understand  when I finished the things that I should do,I'm one step closer to my dream.

#2 Are the speaking and listening tasks difficult for you?  What are the challenges you often face when you listen and speak in English?
speaking的部份,A部分以外的題目都讓我覺得很吃力,也許是因為從小時候開始學習英文,就沒有習慣會試著應用之後與人對話,所以遇到需要有自我構思部分speaking的時候就會腦袋空白反應不過來,也說不出甚麼完整的句子,遇到外國人也是,都聽得懂但卻沒有辦法做出回應。至於listening就沒有speaking來的這麼讓自己害怕,因為大體都聽得懂,即使聽不懂也知道是因為不知道那是什麼單字,解決的方法就是多多充實自己的單字量,就比起speaking而言沒有讓自己這麼畏懼
