My pronunciation of English words was really bad and my English grammar was worse. I did not
know how to improve them. One afternoon after school, my teacher of English told me to wait for
her outside the classroom. She took me to the school library and show me cassettes of
pronunciation drills kept in a glass bookcase. She also told me how to use an English – English
dictionary to improve my English grammar. “ Now I think you know what you should do,” she
said. I did not know that only one year later I would win the first prize in the English Speaking

computers, people use their phone to do much more. They can bank by phone, rent videos by
phone, and even shop by phone. It's also possible to send letters and reports by faxing them over
telephone lines. People can use their phone lines to send messages from one computer to another
computer by electronic mail, or mail .

But you don't need to be at home or at the office to use the phone anymore. You can carry a cell
phone in your pocket or keep one in your car. With cell phone, anyone can talk and walk whenever
you want. We don't have to look for a pay phone if we want to make a call anymore. Now you can
take your calls with you everywhere .
