English is a tool to be used to get results.
These are important things to learning languages for me!
As a non-native speaker of the language, it is important to focus less on oneself when having a conversation in English.
One needs to focus more on the other person and the result that one wants to achieve.
The English language that one learns today should not be an art to be mastered but a tool to be used to get results.
And this tool belongs to us.
According to research institute reports
SOME 96 per cent of conversations around the globe involve non–native interlocutors. Even though there are thousands of languages, half of the world choose English to communicate.
In many countries, English has become an asset because it is one of the most dominant languages and brings much impact to fields of work. Hence people cannot afford to ignore the language.
Ａ crime of public indecency
How about this story?
You might be haerd the name “Godiva” with a brand of Belgian chocolates, but it was the origine from A legend of famous Lady.
The lady is Lady Godiva.
she was an 11th century noblewoman married to Leofric, the powerful Earl of Mercia and Lord of Coventry.
Lady Godiva was troubled by the crippling taxes Leofric had levied on the citizens of Coventry.
After she repeatedly asked him to lessen the burden, Leofric quipped that he would lower taxes only if she rode naked on horseback through the center of town.
Determined to help the public, Godiva stripped off her clothes, climbed on her horse and galloped through the market square with only her long flowing hair to cover herself.
Before leaving, she ordered the people of Coventry to remain inside their homes and not peek, but one man, named Tom, but he couldn’t resist opening his window to get an eyeful.
Upon doing so, this “Peeping Tom” was struck blind.（Origin of”Peeping Tom" )
After finishing her naked ride, Godiva confronted her husband and demanded that he hold up his end of the bargain. True to his word, Leofric reduced the people’s debts.
