    This is a composition with voice

    I learned a lot about pronounciation from my teacher in the past week.

    Seth pointed out that I'm not good at ending the words with a consonant(like t, d).I always pronounciate "t" too stronge or even not pronounciate it at all. On the contrary, I pronounciate "d" too weak. He also psychologically encouraged me that eliminate the word "I am bad" from your vocabulary, just think you have an intermediate English. I guess every language learner need this. Besides, he advise me to narrate my day——to think morning routine in English. I always forget about it as the first thing I do when wake up is taking mobile phone. > <

    Rob talked about short "i" with me. You can never image how difficult for me when short "i" meets "L". Look at "the steep hills", first is Long "E" and then fast change to short "i", my mouse cannot find exactly position quickly! Besides, I told you that I'm not good at ending the words with a consonant! what the hell!

    Never mind, I have an intermediate English. 😑 And I promise Rob I will practice it everyday.

    I always want to speak like native, so I speak English very quckily and ignore my pronounciation. Seth told me don't do that, because you have never been to an English-speaking country. And the more important thing for you now is correct pronounciation, even though you speak slowly. Rob also said he cannot hear article(like a/an, the) from me.

    Sum up, I decide to stop pretending to be a "illegal" local and focus on own pronounciation. Now I know the reason why we learn language is talking with others instead of looks like great. Somtimes people want to achieve their target so much that forget their original intention. Like I did this time. I will remember this time and avoid the same things happen.


    (If have any mistakes in my essay, please tell me. Thanks a lot.)
