Suman was not a good student in school, but when she was filming international blockbusters, she taught herself English and hired a special oral teacher.
However, there is still a certain gap between the dogmatic English in books and the spoken English she learned.
Just like when we speak Chinese, but when you are asked to say whether to use "的", "地" or "得" in this context, you always have to react.
Being able to speak does not necessarily mean you can write, and being able to write does not necessarily mean you know the grammar.
Su Man looked through Yin Man's English exercise book and found that her native English was a mess.
When answering multiple-choice questions, I basically followed the rule of 'if there are three short and one long, choose the longest one; if there are three long and one short, choose the shortest one; if I don't know the answer at all, just choose C'.
The vocabulary I master is also the simplest, such as yes, no, dad and mom.
Fortunately, Suman had some basic knowledge of English, so she could make her own plan.
Moreover, English isn't a subject like math, where everything is interconnected. If her vocabulary is improved, her English scores will also improve. Combined with her existing sense of language, I believe passing the exam will be no problem.
...
Su Man was reading seriously, but Zhu Ruqian next to her looked at her with disdain.
Although Zhu Ruqian's grades were not among the best, they were far better than Su Man's, especially in English.
Her mother enrolled her in many English tutoring classes, and in terms of English grades alone, she is among the best in the class.
So she is not only the English class representative, but she always shines in any competition or English salon on campus.
Coincidentally, the English teacher finished explaining the English test paper and announced something.
"Our school will have exchange students visiting next weekend, so we're organizing an English corner for everyone to exchange ideas and improve their English skills. Interested students can sign up to participate."
Hearing this, Zhu Ruqian's eyes lit up and she raised her arms high, "Teacher, I want to give it a try."
As she spoke, she glanced at Bai Mingxu in the front row.
Bai Mingxu had often traveled abroad with his parents since he was a child, and since he was always studious, he usually served as an interpreter for such activities.
As long as she seizes this opportunity and fights alongside Bai Mingxu, Bai Mingxu will definitely see her good side.
Thinking of this, she raised her hands higher.
The English teacher nodded, motioning her to put her hand down, and said, "Okay, then help me count which students will be attending, and send them to my office after school today."
"Okay, teacher."
Zhu Ruqian responded crisply, as proud as a rooster.
After class, Zhu Ruqian called Bai Mingxu in a coquettish voice.
"Bai Mingxu, are you going to join the English corner too?"
"The school contacted me to accompany the exchange students, so I'm going to participate."
Zhu Ruqian's face lit up with joy, but she remained reserved and said, "If you need any help, I can come with you."
Bai Mingxu didn't understand her thoughts and said bluntly, "There is one translator position, but the school will choose it."
Zhu Ruqian's enthusiasm was not dampened at all. She felt that with her English level, she would definitely be selected.
Seeing Su Man lying as quiet as a chicken, Zhu Ruqian deliberately asked, "Yin Man, don't you want to try?"
In her mind, Suman was not very good at English and she would definitely refuse.
But Su Man was not afraid, and simply said, "Okay, let's give it a try."
Zhu Ruqian paused for a few seconds, then laughed and said, "Are you kidding?"
Realizing her words were too blunt, Zhu Ruqian explained, "We have to speak English the entire time in the English corner. I was just worried that your English grades weren't good enough and it would be embarrassing if you couldn't speak."
Su Man smiled slowly, "So when you asked me to try just now, you were implying something, not really asking me to participate."
"I..."
Zhu Ruqian was still a student after all, so there was no way she could get around Su Man. Seeing that her little thoughts were exposed, her face turned red.
Bai Mingxu's smile faded a little, and he said to Su Man gently, "It's good to go to the English corner to practice your sense of language. Besides, what we're learning now is all book knowledge, and everyone's spoken English level is average. As long as you master a few daily short sentences, communication won't be a problem."
Su Man glanced at Zhu Ruqian and said, "Then please sign me up."
Zhu Ruqian forced a smile and said, "Okay."
When Zhu Ruqian lowered her head to write down the name, the tip of her pen almost pierced the paper.
Sign up, huh? Okay, then I'll show you how I'll humiliate you!
-
Classes started and ended, and the morning passed quickly.
During lunch break, Su Man did not go to the cafeteria to queue up for food like everyone else, but went to the supermarket alone to buy a loaf of bread.
She is very pressed for time now and has to race against time to review her lessons.
Unexpectedly, on the way back, I ran into Yingtian on the tree-lined path on campus.
As soon as Ying Tian saw Su Man, his face became long and he scolded her, "It's noon, why don't you go to the cafeteria to eat? Where have you been?"
Seeing him coming with such a fierce attitude, Su Man knew that he might have heard some rumors from Zhu Ruqian again.
She calmly shook the bread in her hand and said, "I'm going to buy lunch."
Then she handed the water in her hand to Ying Tian, "I bought this bottle of water for you. I thought I would give it to you later."
Ying Tian's irritable mood changed slightly when he heard Su Man say that. But when he saw the bottle of water in her hand, his expression turned disgusted again. "I don't drink this kind of plastic bottled water. I only drink imported glass bottled sparkling water."
Su Man put down her hand without hesitation and said, "Okay."
It’s not for you anyway.
