A different way of learning is widely used in our English study.
Before class, we should make study plans first. Then we look up the new words, listen to the
recording and read the text. When we meet problems we can’t solve by ourselves, we always write them down in our notebooks.
In class, we sit in groups to discuss the problems freely.The teachers always offer help when we need. After discussion, it’s time for us to give a report to the class. We also make conversations in pairs and practise a lot. It’s really good for our listening and speaking.
After class, we reduce homework now so we can go to the library to read English books,magazines and newspapers. We can also surf the Internet for useful information.
In a word, we enjoy the new way of studying. We can make more progress in our study.

When I first came to America, I knew little about English, so I went to a language school every day except Sunday to learn English. One day, during the break I asked Alice , one of my classmates, a question that I didn’t understand. When I thanked her for her answer, she said,“You’re welcome. It’s a piece of cake.”I thought to myself: America is really a country where you have to pay for everything. So I said to her,“I haven’t taken any piece of cake with me today. What about something else?”She looked at me with a big smile, saying,“What I mean is ‘No problem’ and that it’s a small matter.”From then on, I knew that “a piece of cake” is not only a piece of cake but also means a thing that is easily done.
