Default Sir,I'm back.

555, I was very unlucky. I did terribly in my oral test.
For the first time, I hate a foreigner so much because that examiner
was very unqualified. He spoke very fast and meanwhile with a kind of accent,unlike the saying i heard in cassette.

So Sir, pls tell me some best voice chatrooms in USA, ok?

I am sorry you didn't do so well on your oral exam. I will try to get you some help. (I don't know much about chatrooms.) In the meantime, would you try my riddle? (Nobody wants to play with me. :( )

Please try it and tell me what you think. (It is a game. There are no grades given out. It is a way for learners to practice their English skills.)

Faint, Sorry, Sir, I couldn't understand that kinf of riddles. They're very different from Chinese riddles.
Maybe they're easy for you guys, but for us, second language learners, they're hard.
I even don't know english rhyme.

Btw, are there other guys who know voice chatroom?

You can try looking here, but I've never used them:

Also, look at the following sites for safety guidelines:

This probably won't help with your pronunciation, but it should be useful for writing compositions (essays). Go to: http://iws.ccccd.edu/cobb/sentences.html

Eric will, I hope, find that quite useful.

Eric is an eager learner. He is enthusiastic and, I think, a quick study. I am looking forward to working with him more.

He asks interesting questions.

:D
