记得一年前有一节课是谈你喜欢的一首歌，我对老师说我喜欢“在那遥远的地方”，老师说尝试着用英语描述一下歌词，憋了半天只能蹦单词结结巴巴地叙述了个大概，好在老师听明白了，但我把cows(乳牛)说成了fox(狐狸)，哈哈，美丽的姑娘在青海草原上放养狐狸。好在老师没来过西部，不了解实情。今天的雅思课终于可以流利地讲述这首歌和它背后的王洛宾与青海的金银滩草原上美丽的藏族姑娘的故事。
        本节课还涉及到人们喜欢的色彩与其隐秘的性格的关系，随即老师出了一个比较难回答的问题：Who are you really? Who is behind the mask that you show to the rest of the world? 嗯，我的回答让老师给了三个大大的赞，却也让我在课后陷入沉思 … …

       预习今天的功课。今天的课文内容有点意思，讲压力并不都是坏事情，压力也有好的一面。如果你把压力当敌人，压力就真的变成了你的敌人，如果你看到压力有促进你积极向上的一面，那它就不会把你压垮。这是一位美国的心理学家提出的论点。嗯呐，这会儿我用整理图片来放松心情，准备晚上的两节课。

       经过周日的修整昨晚的课上得很顺利，老师给了几个赞，开心。雅思part2老师给出了一个比较难的扩展题，一分钟的准备大脑飞转，迅速组织语言和回答内容，下课后听回放语流还比较顺，特记录在此。

       Additional question-2: Describe an activity that requires you to prepare for a long period of time. In recent years, the most difficulty of activity that requires me to prepare for a long period of time that is representation in the museum. In the early spring of 2014, I joined the volunteers team in the museum, I thought it was easy to do it, because I learnt the historical arts from university. But in fact, it was difficult for me, I have to restudy and read a lot of historical books, it's involved about 8000 years of history. When I apply to pass the first exam, I felt too shy and frustrated, because I wasn't able to speak fluently and my sound was small, the coach couldn't hear me clearly. Now I am an excellent volunteer and try to explain history with English. My voice becomes better based on my practice and practice English every morning; I think that it's meanful activity that I prepare for a long period of time.
