As the saying goes，"If at first you don't succeed，try，try again．"This is never truer than when you are trying to master English．Lai Shixiong，a respected English master from Taiwan，has a story to share．

Like many non﹣native speakers，Lai failed when he first started learning English．When he was in high school，he once got an unbelievably low mark of 7 out of 100 on an English test．He almost gave up on English，but then he entered a military school （军校），where he met a classmate who was good at English．

Amazed by his classmate's American accent，Lai decided to start learning English from the beginning．As he put it．"I saw myself as a baby who had just started to learn a language．"To correct his pronunciation，Lai practiced phonetic symbols（音标）hundreds of times every day using records．

When he was able to pronounce words，Lai said he began to practice dialogues．Not being able to find someone to praclice with，Lai created a learning atmosphere（氛围）on his own．"I just talked to myself as if I were in a dialogue．"he said．

Lai also thought of ways to improve his skills．He used English to describe everything he saw．He even translated speeches when he went to class meetings at the military school．He also read and listened to English news to learn new expressions．

"There is no shortcut to mastering a language．You have to practice，"Lai said．After all，Rome wasn't built in a day．

You are visiting the Big Ben in England，but the next second you are in France．Then，suddenly you may see some animals that have disappeared．But you are not in a wonderland．This is what might happen in the near future，with the help of VR （虚拟现实）technology．

VR is a computer technology that creates an environment and allows users to see and even interact（互动）with it．Just wear a pair of VR goggles （护目镜）connected to your computer and you can experience a lot of things without stepping out of your room．

"The most attractive part of VR is that it offers an immersive experience．You become a part of the story．That's why VR movies are popular among users，"said Wang Bing，leader of the Chinese entertainment company Funshow．

According to the Report on Chinese VR Users'Behavior announced last month．over 960，000 people in China have bought VR products and 83.2% of them have watched VR movies．

The use of VR is not only used in entertainment．VR can help to train pilots and workers before they have to actually risk their lives in highly dangerous working environments．VR also helps to treat patients with acrophobia （恐高症）by making them think they are standing on top of a tall building．

Once upon a time，there was a forest where all the animals lived happily together．One day a family went to spend the day in the countryside，and one little boy left his socks there．Soon after the family left，a goose came by and found the socks．（71）　　They fit so well，and he liked them so much that he wouldn't take them off．He spent his days walking through the forest in the socks．

（72）　　And some of them were a bit envious（嫉妒的）that he was getting so much attention．Before long，in that forest，there began appearing monkeys in shirts，a rabbit with a hat on，and even a little pig who wore a pair of glasses!
