1 . 短文改错

Today I took part in the Beijing Foreign Language Festival with my friend Li Ming. We arrive there by bike in the morning. First we attended to a lecture introduced good methods of learning English. The audience all listened but took notes carefully. Then we went to the English Corner, there lots of people were talking with foreigners in small group. Li Ming and I joined them with greatly interest. That was amazing to find myself talking with the native speaker and we got on quite well. Time passed quickly. Before leaving, we bought some books and dictionaries. The festival gave you a good chance to practice my English.
