I looked around and found that most of them were students. Some of them talked in English in twos and threes. To my surprise, I found three foreigners talking and smiling with some students who listened with great interest. Just then, a tall student came to me and asked, “Shall we have a talk in English?” My heart beat very fast at that moment because it was the first time for me to visit the English corner. Anyway, I said “Yes”. Soon we talked freely about our studies, lives, hobbies as well as our problems of learning English. Time went fast, and it was already 11 o’clock before I realized it.

Since you do not know much English yet, you should choose an English-Chinese dictionary which not only gives you the meaning of the English words in Chinese but also gives you some explanations.When you see a new word, do not use the dictionary immediately (立刻). Try to guess what it means before you look it up in the dictionary. If you cannot, then look up the word in the dictionary. Words in dictionaries are alphabetically (照字母次序) arranged (排列).The dictionary usually tells you—(1) the spelling of the word; (2) the pronunciation of the word; (3) the different meanings of the word; (4) the different ways in which the word is used in sentences.

My classmates always ask me how to learn English. OK. Let me tell you. Speaking, listening and writing are very important.If you want to speak English very well, you should read fast and loudly. If you do this for about three months, you can speak English like a foreigner.If you want to be good at English, you can’t ignore(忽视) listening. When you talk with others, you should listen to them carefully. If you don’t pay attention to the dialogue, you will miss out a lot of things.Writing is also very important. When you learn a new word, you’d better make a sentence or more. It can expand(扩大) your vocabulary.You see, English is not very difficult.

Introduction of HalloweenHalloween is an annual holiday observed on October 31, which commonly includes activities such as trick-or-treating, attending costume parties, carving jack-o'-lanterns, bonfires, apple bobbing, visiting haunted attractions, playing pranks, telling scary stories, and watching horror films.Historian Nicholas Rogers, exploring the origins of Halloween, notes that while "some folklorists have detected its origins in the Roman feast of Pomona, the goddess of fruits and seeds, or in the festival of the dead called Parentalia, it is more typically linked to the Celtic festival of Samhain". The name is derived from Old Irish and means roughly "summer's end". Snap-Apple Night (1832) by Daniel Maclise depicts apple bobbing and divination games at a Halloween party in Blarney, Ireland. The name 'Halloween' and many of its present-day traditions derive from the Old English era.The word Halloween is first attested in the 16th century and represents a Scottish variant of the fuller All-Hallows-Even ("evening"), that is, the night before All Hallows Day. Although the phrase All Hallows is found in Old English, All-Hallows-Even is itself not attested until 1556.2. Word attack1)fall asleep v. change from a waking to a sleeping state入睡;睡着e.g. After changing the bed, I would fall asleep quickly. 换了一张床,我很快就能睡着了。
