There was a time     1    I was tired of learning English and disliked to speak English. And this was the reason     2    my father forced me to join in a 30-day training in an English club before I went to senior high school. When I first came to the club,     3    I met many strangers, I missed my parents very much. So I packed up my things and wanted to go home. Fortunately, my guide teacher     4    name was Li Yang, communicated with me face to face, from     5    I gained some useful instructions. He also showed me a good partner, and we got along well with each other. Gradually I adapted to the life there. Every day I would like to talk to other teenagers and set down a series of activities     6    we did. My father and the guide     7     encouraged me to fall in love with English should be appreciated. Now I feel it interesting to learn English, into     8    I put my entire energy. Before I go to sleep, I recall my passage, through     9    I can memorize a large number of new words.     10    our English teacher says, “As long as we form the habit of learning English every day and have perseverance, we will conquer English sooner or later. ”

On arriving in the United States，I felt everything was different. There were many new things I had to adapt to.One thing that really    1    (take) me a long time to adapt to was speaking the language.

I remember     2    (clear) that I had to struggle to learn English because I couldn't even write a short paragraph to introduce myself at the first day of my English class.The teacher asked me     3    it was difficult for me.If it was，I could change to level one!

However，I was stubborn and swore that I was going to succeed.I started to spend many     4    (hour)per day，even though it was stressful，because I wanted to take advantage     5    this special chance to study English in the U.S.A.

I felt depressed because I couldn't understand     6    people were saying even though I made great efforts.However，I still kept     7    (try) and never gave up.

Now， I can tell you that I have improved a lot， but sometimes it is still easy for me to get    8    (confuse) if I don't know what topic people     9    (talk) about.To adapt to this new language， I had to tell     10    ( I ) that I could do it.I really believe I can!
