My reason for learning English as follows;
1. I want to continue learning it since i haven't master and control this language totally. I can hear a little, speak a littel, read a little, write a little, but that is not good enough, i know that. If you make up your mind to learn something well, you should learn it everyday. Everything is possible, just don't give up easily. If we work hard, we can grind an iron rod into a needle. As for English, we should learn it everyday from all aspects.
2. With the globalization of economy and development of the society, it is demanded by the times and situations. To be frank, it is a basic skill when you want to search a job and work in a good company.
3. It makes me happy and i'm interested in this language. It's good for us to learn something. And now i take it as my hobby. I really like it. It's known to all that learning is a happy thing while a painful thing. If you never have experienced such feelings, it means you haven't devoted yourself to it. I wish i could have fun learning it and make progress as well.
4. As an International language, if you can speak English well, you can communicate with English speaker from any other country. Come on, English is very easy to speak, it is not like Chinese, our Chinese is one of the most difficult language in the world. Just forget about standard pronunciation, open your month and say it, express yourself in a free and relaxed way. Like our mother tongue and local language, if you can make yourself understood, then you are ok to speak it.
5. Ok, forget about communicating with foreigners, if you can learn English well, you can help your future children learn it. What a beautiful thing! Besides, if we can master one foreign language, it can help us avoid suffering from alzheimer's disease when we grow old. How nice!
I think the moment i can understand Obama's speech without noticing the words in the TV and enjoying the English movie without watching the translation, i would think i'm really doing a good job. Now you can see that, i'm not doing well, but i'm happy that i'm on the way. Although i need to study it through my whole life, i will never give up learning, like never give up my life. I said it, just keep going, never too old to learn, later better than never. No matter how boring and difficult it will be, I accept this challenge. Learn it according to my method, cheers!
