I did not expect that there was only me would attend the F2F class. at first, i just thought Nick was kidding with me for asking about the chocolate candy, which i wrongly called "chocolate bean".

  "Is that a bean? What does a bean look like?" Nick said with slight irony.

   I didn't know how to fight back. Then he told me that he was the teacher and I should know the manner even though I didn't mean to insult him. Oh,God~ I had insulted him? I just forgot to take out my notebook and pen as I thought he was discussing with me. He really gave me a stern lecture on foreign culture. OK, I gave up arguing with him and continued my class. Sometimes the foreign teacher is really unreasonable.

   Nevertheless, I have to admit that Nick takes pretty good class. He taught me to work on the intonation. He said that communication was the purpose of studying English and there were three factors influencing the communication effect. the proportion of the three factors was 5%, 45% and 50% respectively. so what are they on earth? they are pronunciation, intonation and body language. It makes sense!

  Following the principle of intonation, I practiced to read out the sentences several times and some progresses had been made.
