《2024年仁爱英语同步练习册九年级全一册仁爱版》

一、阅读理解。
My name is Jessica. I come from South Africa. Ten years ago, I began to go to a middle school in the USA because my family moved to California. I was not smart and I was very quiet. I was shaking like a leaf when the teacher asked me to have some shows in front of the class. My classmates did not want to stay in the same group with me when we had group works. I didn't believe myself as before. I always copied my classmates' notes in the class because I couldn't understand the lessons.
In order to improve my English, I tried my best to read a lot of English books and talk with my classmates in English, but it did not work well. I felt so frustrated about my English. My classmates said that a Negro(黑人) couldn't understand white people's culture.
Those words hurt me a lot, and then I made a big decision. I dropped out of the school because I thought I was not really able to learn English at school any more. I tried to get a job, but it was very hard for me because of my poor English. I kept trying and trying. After a period, I finally got a job as a salesgirl in a store. As a result, my spoken English has improved a lot. Nowadays, there's almost no difference between Americans and me in pronunciation. I have learnt more from the experience. It is true that experience is the best teacher.
