Self-taught English inspirational story Part II: A story of a chef learning English.

1in the autumn of 992, Zhang Liyong dropped out of school just one month after the second year of high school. ? The economic conditions at home are not very good. Three new adobe houses were just built that year, and all the money for building them was borrowed. I owe a lot of debts, about thousands of dollars. Although parents are frugal, the situation at home is getting worse every day, and sometimes they are poor enough to borrow rice from others to buy noodles. The newly built house soon leaked rain, but at this time, the family couldn't afford to repair it, and others didn't want to lend money to their father. Looking at the back of parents working day and night, think about the huge debt that is weighing on this family. As the eldest son, Zhang Liyong had to drop out of school. Parents strongly opposed Zhang Liyong's dropping out of school, and his father said that no matter how difficult it was, he would provide for him. Mom also said:? If you don't go to school, there is no hope of going to college in the future. ? Zhang Liyong comforted the two old people. Go out to work for a while first, and then take the exam when you graduate from college. In fact, he chose to drop out of school this time, and I don't know if he will have the opportunity to walk into the campus again and regain his beloved textbooks.

From 65438 to 0993, Zhang Liyong went south to Guangzhou with several high school textbooks and started a part-time job. Zhang Liyong first settled down in a bamboo art factory and spent 12 hours on the assembly line every day, but his salary was pitiful, and his reading time was even more extravagant. Soon, he entered a Sino-foreign joint venture toy factory, because the toys here are all sold abroad, so the orders and packaging are all in English letters. He can't understand these foreign characters, so the size, color and filler of the toys can't be determined, let alone laid hands on him. Zhang Liyong took out a high school English textbook from his canvas bag, bought an English dictionary as an assistant, and translated Chinese characters against the English on the box. Zhang Liyong began to feel the importance of English at this time.

Because of the lack of learning atmosphere, Zhang Liyong finally left Guangzhou with a rich nightlife. 1June 1996, Zhang Liyong, who didn't want to waste time, came to Beijing through the recommendation of a relative in his hometown and became a vegetable cutter in the canteen of Tsinghua University. This is a good place for him to study while working. Although the salary is lower than that in Guangzhou, Zhang Liyong said. As long as I can maintain my study life and have an atmosphere and environment for my study, it is enough. Going to Tsinghua University is Zhang Liyong's dream. Now, this dream has come true. Although I stepped into this ivory tower in another capacity, standing on this grassland in Tsinghua campus is like touching its warm skin, breathing with it and growing together?

Indeed, for Zhang Liyong, this is really a good place like a duck to water. Although the salary is lower than that in Guangzhou, as Zhang Liyong said: As long as I can maintain my study life and have an atmosphere and environment for my study, it's OK, then? That's enough. ?

Zhang Liyong gets up at four o'clock every morning and insists on self-study for seven or eight hours every day, sometimes until one or two in the morning. No matter in the cold winter or in the hot summer, he never stops learning English. At his bedside, Zhang Liyong wrote with a brush? Self-denial? And Tsinghua's school motto? Actions speak louder than words? To tell myself not to be lazy.

The canteen stipulates that chefs should eat before selling meals to students, and the meal time is only 15 minutes. As a result, Zhang Liyong finished her meal in seven minutes, and spent the remaining eight minutes in the cupboard behind the canteen reciting English textbooks. Many colleagues find Zhang Liyong's behavior simply incomprehensible. ? College students can learn English in a formal and systematic way, while Zhang Liyong can only learn English through his own channels. ? Zhang Liyong is different from the college students here. College students here have plenty of time and can study regularly, while Zhang Liyong can only accumulate time and can't let go of every minute? English can also be learned anytime and anywhere. The packaging bag and seasoning bag of instant noodles are bilingual, such as R sugar, salt and so on. Then Zhang Liyong practiced English to exercise his courage while selling rice. Zhang Liyong can only buy second-hand books, second-hand tapes and listen to a very ordinary radio station, because he can't study through the formal system like ordinary college students. Frugal English learning method.
