Solving Problems

I have learned 2 useful skills after I arrived PAS. One is how to play basketball, and the other is how to speak proper english. Before I was a sixth grader, I rarely play basketball. That was because my local school didn't teach basketball, they taught more stuff on track and field. We ran a lot.  The only thing they taught us about basketball was shooting and dribbling. They didn't even tell us the rules of playing basketball, so I didn't know the rules. After I arrived PAS, I started playing different types of sports. The most common one is basketball. I learned how to play basketball. The second thing I learned is speak proper english. Before I arrived PAS, I speak terrible english. That was why I didn't speak a lot when I first came to PAS. After a couple years of learning, my english improve a lot, even though I still need a lot of improvement to count as a good english speaker. English is a very useful language, because it is the international language. I know I will use it in the furture. I also used english to communicate with my two counsins in America. They are better english speaker, cause they born and have edjucation in America. They are not really good at chinese, so the only communication tool that I can use is english. Without english, I will need to use hand gesture, which is not more useful than language.
