Half a year ago, I failed to pass the English exam and feel like giving it up. My English teacher had a talk patient with me. She helped me realize what important it is to learn it well. In addition, she told me my firm belief that I could make it. Her words were too inspiring that I decided to work hard at English because I strongly thought learning it well is must. Therefore, to practice English, I began to get up on the early morning. Every minute was made full use of to improving it. My efforts finally paid off, tired as I was at times. I succeeded in passing the last English exam and I have been mastered nearly two thousand English words in the past month.
