    Since China is more and more international, English is more and more important in our lives. I have learnt English for 6 years, but I find that I can just read and understand some easy English articles or write some easy sentences. My oral English and listening are still very poor! So I know I should not just depend on the textbooks,and I should learn to communicate with others in English. 

    A Czech friend once said that if you wanna improve your English, you should practice English everyday. I think it is right. I registered skype, facebook and twitter, and I began to listen to English songs and watch American dramas. But there are still some problems. 

  1. I couldn't follow what the actors said in the dramas. I thought they talk with each other so fast that I don't have time to reflect. Without the subtitle I couldn't understand clearly. 

    2. I couldn't follow the lyrics of the English songs. I just listened to the melody and don't know what the meaning of the lyric and what this song express. It is only some easy sentences that I can understand. 

    3. I met some people who want to chat with me. But they just asked me about the nickname or number of my skype and facebook. After adding me few of them would contact me and practice English together. I did't know why they add me at first. Did they just want to make friends? Sometimes I went to chatting rooms and have a talk. But after greeting we didn't have other topics to talk about. 

   Recently I have a Russian partner. He is very kind and willing to practice English with me. I think this experience is very cool. I will never stop learning English. Maybe someday in the future I can travel around the world and talk with natives in that country using fluent English.

   Hi, I’m Cyril. I come from Tianjin, China. I like to learn English, and love to watch American TV shows and listen to English songs. Have you guys seen The Amazing Race and Survivor? I think these shows are interesting and bring me a lot of happiness. I hope that I can travel around the world like the players of TAR in the future.  I love British bands, such as Coldplay and One Direction. I also like the singers from the US, like Justin Timberlake, Linkin Park and Maroon5. I’m addicted to Rock and electronic music.

   Now I’m a college student and major in Medical Imaging.Recently there is a disease named H7N9 in the east of China. I’m scared and don’t want to eat chicken any longer. But you know most meat in my college restaurant is chicken. Hopefully this disease can be  cured soon. I want to practice my English and improve my skills. If you don’t care about the  time difference you can contact me!

    I wanna chat with people from different countries and know more about their cuture.I'm happy to be your friend!
