************************
上午练习了练习1~6，R1，R2。主要是跟读，并回答语音中的问题。
2007-11-25晚上~2007-11-28
为一个外企的英语面试做准备。真狼狈啊。被问得丑态百出，原形毕露。自己的英语方面的问题，是完全的暴露了。
1. 听懂很差，很多有单词不会的问题，往往要面试官重复。外向的（overgo）我都听不懂。真的可以跳黄埔江了。
2. 自己无法用英语组织语言来说话。词不成句，有时连词都忘了。
总的来说，和以前没有学压码和千万时没多大区别。只是发音有所改善。
痛定思痛，英语学习是要下苦功了，不能蛮干，现在没有网络，听懂是没法说了。先学注音，听清，跟读，朗读。正好我没有第一册书。真是祸不单行。我就是好好学现在能学的，不懂的纵向法查字典。
2007-11-29
上网查了压码听懂的资料。
没有带U盘。没办法拿下来，我是在网吧查的。
2007-11-30
购得《你好美国》一册，<friends>全光盘。
2007-12-01
带U盘，上网整理压码听懂的资料。
2007-12-02
把整理好的压码资料全部看一遍，受益非浅，看了星空的贴子尤受鼓舞。
2007-12-03
休息一天。我也有学习很烦躁的感觉，学习全乱了，决定在周一休息，这一天打死也不看英语。
2007-12-04
有私事，回来十点半了，看了看电视，不学习。
2007-12-05
听懂操作开始，看得很好，自己学就不是那么回事了。所用的是有例子的九册1课练习，很长，对着文本看，好懂，但记不住。
听着听着就睡着了。开电脑听一晚上。醒来没什么感觉。只是夜里睡醒的时候，听了几句。醒来全忘了。
2007-12-06
听懂没有感觉，不想听，又看看电视过了一晚上。
2007-12-07
开始再练习，今天不练出感觉不睡觉，明天还要加班，妈的！
听听还是睡了。
2007-12-08
今天把九册一课练习边看边听一遍，只听脑海浮现一遍。（我只能在自己压码时才能浮现，而且是很慢的，有时跟不上，好像是自己在心里拼写）。看文本回想一遍。真的好像有原音啊。呵呵。

i searched for other method for the english. i forced myselt to learn. but no result. my good friend, zhangyao told me that i can't find the interesting of study a foreign language. i just drived myself to do. i can't enjoy a foreign language. yes. i can't, so i fail again and again. i just feel boring..
