Characteristics Of Reading And Writing In Aesop's Fables
Final Paper
Part Ⅰ：My gains in the class
I must say Reading and Writing this course brings so many benefits to me. First of all, the direct result is I have finished reading Aesop’s Fables. And I touched a great number of new vocabulary, especially the animals’ name. Although I cannot memorize them all, but at least I can recognize them when I see them. This book contains many stories, and each story tell us a proverb, which is rich in philosophic. We can learn how to conduct ourselves in the world and enrich our inner world. In Aesop’s Fables, the sentence patterns are diverse. The long sentence collocated the short sentence makes the whole passage rhythmic. And I try using this technique in writing. Hope the effect is not bad. Looking back the study of this term, I find the best way to learn English is reading. Reading the English original instead of the translation helps me to enrich the word stock, learn the grammar and change the mindset. A lot of reading can improve our English level. So I intend to buy some English original to read during winter vacation. Moreover, I learn how to check my work by myself in the Paper Rater. That’s an excellent website.
