Chapter 279 Change Because of Dreams

Ever since the little girl fell in love with her English teacher, whose Chinese name is Qingping and whose English name is Cymi, she has completely changed.

She no longer sits down at the computer and immediately starts playing games like before. Instead, she opens the Ren'ai English Original Classroom to learn English!

She had never memorized English words when she was in elementary school, so even when she entered junior high school, she still knew nothing about English.

Fortunately, seventh grade English starts from the very basics. As long as the girl is willing to calm down and study English, her grades will improve significantly!

But how easy is it to suddenly get someone who has been having a blast for six years to calm down and study? Especially when she's already having a great time.

You're a middle school student now! You can't be as uninterested in studying as you were in elementary school. Before, I didn't pay much attention to your studies because I wanted you to have a happy childhood.

But you're almost in junior high now, so from now on I'll be stricter with your studies.

Although it's a pleasant summer vacation now, I will still take some time each day to teach you some of the material that you will be learning in the first year of junior high school.

If you learn the material for the first year of junior high school in advance, you won't struggle so much when you enter junior high!

But Dad is still enjoying his summer vacation! And now you're telling me I have to study seriously? Isn't that really a bad idea?

Haha! Do you think I don't know what you're up to? You just want to have lots of time to play games again, don't you?

Yes! Yes! Dad, I haven't played games for a long time because I was preparing very seriously for the entrance exam to junior high school!

Haha! Little girl, you started your vacation around June 20th, and now it's July 7th. Do you think you've been playing for a month already?

The little girl wanted to say something more to her brother-in-law, but she noticed that he had a gloomy face. So, she promised him that she would study English hard.

But my brother-in-law doesn't know a thing about English either! How to teach the little girl to speak English has become a headache for him.

He first found a junior high school English vocabulary list online that included audio recordings. Then he asked his daughter to bring a stool and sit with him next to the computer to study English.

The first English word the father and daughter learned together was "Wel" (welcome).

But whether it was a hearing problem on the part of the father and daughter or something else, they actually heard the word as "feed the dog"!

So they assumed that's how the word was pronounced! And so they continued feeding the dog like that throughout that summer.

It wasn't until the little girl entered junior high school and heard her English teacher teach her this word that she realized that both she and her father had been pronouncing English incorrectly.

Even the little girl's favorite English teacher got her English name wrong! Everyone else's English name is Cymi, but the little girl calls her CD.

Hey! Whenever the little girl thinks about this, she finds it so funny! She really thinks there was something wrong with her ears back then, and not only that, there might also be something wrong with her little brain.

Because I wanted to see if anyone had an English name like CD. When did this little girl realize she was calling her favorite English teacher by the wrong name?

It was only after the little girl watched the video of the English teacher's self-introduction at least five or six times that she realized she had mispronounced the teacher's English name.

This also shows that the little girl wasn't watching these English teaching videos very attentively. That's why she mispronounced her favorite English teacher's name.

I wonder if the little girl has entered puberty! Or is it just her fangirling that she's become so obsessed with this English teacher named Cymi.

The little girl would watch her teaching videos at least ten times before she would stop! Not only that, the little girl also developed a love for memorizing English words and English texts because of it.

She took the time to carefully copy all the English words she had already memorized three or four times. Since the junior high school's English program already had a set of CDs, she could find many teaching videos about junior high school English online at the time.

Knowing this, my brother-in-law searched for these English teaching videos online. And the little girl's favorite English teacher's teaching videos were downloaded by my brother-in-law from the internet.

In this CD, the English textbook lessons are presented to students in the form of animations.

This is a godsend for the little girl who loves watching cartoons!

So every afternoon, the little girl would review all the English texts she had already learned. Over time, she was able to memorize all the texts in her English textbook.

In addition, she persisted in copying English words during the summer vacation, so her English grades improved by leaps and bounds! In her first monthly exam in junior high school, the little girl scored 70 points in English.

This made the little girl incredibly happy! Because she had never passed English in elementary school. This experience motivated her to study even harder.

My brother-in-law was worried that his daughter would become addicted to games during her studies, so he uninstalled QQ from her computer a few days before school started.

Ever since the little girl's best friend registered a QQ account for her, the little girl always logs into her QQ account whenever she plays on the computer.

Seeing this, you might ask, "If the brother-in-law uninstalled QQ from the computer, wouldn't the little girl reinstall it?"

Perhaps the little girl would have done this before she met her favorite English teacher! But after meeting Teacher Ximi, the little girl lost interest in QQ.

Even when she sits in front of the computer, she doesn't think about logging into her QQ account or playing games; instead, she opens and watches the English videos that her brother-in-law downloaded for her on the computer's hard drive.

If you were to ask the little girl which period of time in your memory is the most unforgettable?

She will tell you without hesitation about the time when she first entered junior high school, because during that period she was so engrossed in the world of knowledge that she couldn't extricate herself.

Back then, she was someone who forged ahead through hardships, carrying beautiful dreams! She treated learning as her own career.

In her heart, the county's key high school became the most sacred place, and it was also the place she most wanted to be admitted to and become a student there.

In the girl's hometown, there is a custom that when a child is admitted to this very prestigious high school, her family will hold a Lei Cha (擂茶) banquet to invite relatives and friends to her home to celebrate.

And this is also the thing the little girl wants to do most!

Although she's in puberty, her emotions are unusually stable; she never throws tantrums for anything. The only thing that could suddenly make this little girl burst into tears is...
