My name is Wang Qiang. I am nine years old. I came to America with my mum, dad and little brother from Shanghai, China two years ago. It was difficult to leave behind my friends, but the most difficult thing was learning a new language — English.
Over the last two years, I've got to understand most of the words my friends speak. But I was still often at a loss. And sometimes the words I speak sound quite different.
I think it would be okay if all I had to do was learn to speak English. But I had to learn reading and writing. In English, one letter can make many different sounds. Take the letter C for example (例子). If C is the first letter of a word like “cat”, its pronunciation is “k”, but when it is the first letter of a word like “centre”, its pronunciation is “s”. And think about W. If it is the first letter of a word like “white”, its pronunciation is “w”, but when it's the first letter of a word like “write”, it doesn't make any sound. How can I remember all of these
Luckily, with the help of my teachers and classmates, I keep getting better. I'm sure someday I will speak English as well as them.
26. Wang Qiang went to America at the age of _______.
A. six B. seven C. eight D. nine

A:回答问题
English is one of the important subjects. And there are many ways for us to learn it well. But I think it is not easy to do so. We must try our best.
Everyone wants to remember all the vocabularies. We also want to use them correctly. Of course, we cannot expect to do this in a few months. We must read and write every day. We must study grammar. And we must practice more. The more you speak, the better your English will become.
Everyone can make mistakes when speaking. We should keep humorous when someone laughs at our mistakes. What we can do is just to speak more. As the old saying goes, “Practice makes perfect. ”
Keep trying and working hard to improve your English. Because I believe where there is a will, there is a way.
