#日记#
To write English diary every day is difficult for me. The most difficult is that I have a lot of words do not know how to express in English. Because I put down English for too many years, since leaving school for twenty years, I am almost no longer in contact with English in daily life and work. Start by reading the simplest original English book, retrieve the original feeling of learning English.
