I went to the National Concert Hall last Monday. My chorus teacher invited us to see a performance about a chorus. The chorus was from Vancouver. There were about twenty people in this chorus. All of them had beautiful voice, so we really enjoyed the performance. We were all surprised that they sang some Taiwanese songs. I could dare to say their pronunciations were better than some of us. After the concert ended, the host said we could ask the chorus members for a sign. So we went to the place and gained their signs. This was the first time I took the playbill and asked the performers for signs. However, I was a little sad. I tried to talk to them in English, because I thought it was a good chance to practice English. But when I faced to them, I was so nervous that I couldn’t say any complete sentence. I used very simple words to ask them for signs. Though I gained their signs finally, my chorus members played a joke on me. I just also played a joke on me and said “In fact, I’m a fake English major student.” We all laughed but I was sad in my mind. I had a good time during the chorus members were singing. However, I was a little disappointed during the way home. I learned a lesson in this event. I know I am not good at conversation in English before, but I still ignore this problem. I can’t ignore this problem anymore, because I am an English major student now. It is very important in not only writing but also speaking for me.

Donald MacDonald from Scotland went to study at an English university and was living in the hall of residence with all the other students there. After he had been there a month, his mother came to visit him (no doubt carrying reinforcements of tatties, salt herring, oatmeal and whisky).

“And how do you find the English students, Donald?” she asked.

“Mother,” he replied, “they’re such terrible, noisy people. The one on that side keeps banging his head on the wall and won’t stop. The one on the other side screams and screams all night.”

“Oh Donald! How do you manage to put up with these awful noisy English neighbors?”

“Mother, I do nothing. I just ignore them. I just stay here quietly, playing my bagpipes.”
