[00:26.48]about learning English in England.
[00:29.78]Good morning, everybody.
[00:31.93]I went to summer school in England
[00:34.40]for one month last year.
[00:36.97]When I left China,I spoke English poorly.
[00:41.62]I stayed with an English family
[00:44.00]while I was in England.
[00:46.16]They were very nice and they helped me a lot.
[00:49.78]My English was much better when I returned.
[00:53.64]Sarah,how did you improve
[00:55.74]your English in England?
[00:57.94]I took notes while I was at school
[01:00.27]during the day.
[01:01.82]I used English all day
[01:04.25]because I spoke it at school.
[01:07.10]I practiced English at night as well.
[01:11.01]Were there Chinese students at your school?
[01:14.38]Yes. It was nice to talk about
[01:16.84]our families and China.
[01:19.67]I spoke Chinese to them, of course!
[01:23.38]When did you come back to China?
[01:26.41]I arrived home in August.
[01:29.33]Miss Wang,do we have to go to England
[01:31.82]to improve our English?

[01:42.73]and watch English TV.
