I liked reading when i was a
child. In primary school, reading was my only hobby. I read a lot of novels.
Among those stories, 《 Pride and Prejudice》 was my favorite. How beautiful the love story of Darcy and
Elizabeth is, and i always dreamed that i was the heroine of the novel and i
could have this romantic affection in the future.
However, when i grow
up, reading is more and more far away from me. I can't remember when i do the
last reading and the last book i read. In my mind, reading requires a calm
heart and a peaceful environment, but unfortunately i don't have neither.
Movie is my favorite
entertainment. I'm not the big fan of movie, but when i was in China, i would
go to the cinema every week. I like affection film and action movie. But I
can't watch the dracula movie and suspense film. The movie that
moved me most is 'One Day', which played by Anne Hathaway. It talks about a sad
love story. A man and a woman had a deep relationship. They kept contact during
more than 10 years. Even though they had boyfriend and girlfriend in this
period, they still cared about each other. Finally, when they overcame all
obstacles and got together, the women die in a accident. I saw this movie in
the plane. I remembered that i couldn't stop crying although i knew it was very
embarrassing.
Watching movie in America is not very
enjoyable in deed. Because there is no subtitle, it's hard to understand the
entire story. Sometimes i just guess, and sometimes i will sleep in the cinema
(Actually i did it when i watch 'Bat Men 3'.........)
Nevertheless, watching movie is a good way to practice listening and understand idioms.
I also prefer watching movie than reading book like you. and I watched the movie 'One day'. It was really sad movie with my friend so my friend cried in DVD room.
ReplyDeleteI like to watch movies, and I love american TV shows.
ReplyDeleteHowever, I don't have enought time for watch films like the old day. It is so sad.
this is alex. good girl. you can fall asleep in the cinema!! haha! actually i did the same thing when i was watching the real steel. i remembered that i has just been america few months and almost everything need to learn. that movie really did a goog movie and is really a suffering for me. i could clearly remember that i learned a new word from that movie: burrito.
ReplyDeleteThat was a touching and funny post Julia! I'm sorry you don't have a calm heart and peaceful environment for reading right now. That made me sad, but I guess I can relate. I feel about the same way right now.
ReplyDeleteIt is so funny to know that you slept when you watched Bat Man 3, because I have three female friends who had the same situation with you. They said that they slept during the movie time (3 hours. I like action movies and really hate sad movies, yet I maybe will try to watch "One Day".
ReplyDeleteIt's Jojo. I faced to the same situation with you when I watched movie in the Us. It was hard for me to understand the entire story because they spoke too much slang. But I hope it will help me to learn more about American accent.
