D. I was very excited when I knew I was going to New Zealand because I had never been there
before. I didn’n think about the problems of speaking English until I met my host family. At first I
couldn’t communicate with them because my English was so bad. All the 8 years I had been learning
English wasn’t much used at all, because we didn’t have real practice at school. Even though my
grammar was good, but my pronunciation wasn’t. My host mum helped me a lot by correcting my bad
pronunciation. I usually practiced by talking to myself when I had a shower, so no one could hear me.
After 4 months my English was much better.
