Last night I join the English learning class again and paid the fee.
This time we learned another article from New Concept English. First we listened the article and then listened sentence by sentence. The teacher asked each of us to repeat what we heard, which made it difficult for me. I can catch what the CCTV international and CNN broadcast, but sometimes I just can’t know New Concept English. Later I found there are some new vocabularies in that article, like “excursion”, which share the same meaning with “trip”, “journey” and “tour”.
For example:
We are planning for our excursion next week.
Next week we are going on an excursion.
The article tells us that one person planned to visit by bus Woodford green in the countryside, but the conductor forgot to reminder him where to get off, so he had to go back with the bus.
Then the teacher offered a talking point: how do you comment on the current situation on the public transit system.
Well, talking about this issue, I am sure that all of us have many arguments and complaints. Although great achievements have been made in the public transit system in recent years, we still easily found many drawbacks. Being late frequently, too crowded, unreasonable route planning, all incurred our debate. In spite of our poor English, we vented our anger on the bus services.
As far as I am concerned/ in my opinion, I think the relevant department should speed efforts to invest heavily on our urban infrastructure, strengthen the supervision and management. The citizens should observe/abide by the social order and discipline their behaviors.
We do believe the bus system can offer us more excellent service and thus we can lead a more convenient life.

I think the goverment involved should rearrange the shedule of  the bus.I hope  they will prolong the working time especially at night. When we go shopping at night, we have to worry about how long we still have before the bus drivers are duty off.

I'm curious where you sat last night. Hope we can make progresses together!

sorry, the drivers are off duty.

Alex, You are a really diligent man!

Well done!
Let me try to make some suggestions if you don't mind. They are all in CAPITAL LETTERS. Some of them may not be correct.

After two sessions of my English learning, one question emerged: I just can’t speak as much as I can. When being asked questions, I spoke a little and my mind went blank. It’s only when I sat down that I realize I should have lots of things to say. By contrast, my classmates caught the opportunity and speak loudly, in spite of their grammar problems and sentence patterns. In this point, I should learn from them. I have made up my mind that I must seize every chance to speak English as much as I can, and raise my hand to answer the questions during the sessions.

Last night we learned an article about going on a diet. Looking around, I found that I was the only female student who needs to lose weight. Which is the best way to go on a diet, we have different opinions. Losing weight is never easy, you should control your daily food and drink, do some exercises like jogging. You should follow your plan with will, discipline yourself, only through which you can succeed.

As the son, husband, being responsible for our health means being responsible for our family, for our parents. So we should attach great importance to our health.
