Answer 1

While I was walking across the campus the other day, I met my old friend Bill, whom I hadn't seen since May. Naturally, we stopped to talk to each other for a few minutes. I asked him how was doing in his classes that semester. He told me that he had taken a course in English that semester. He said that he had completed the elementary course two semesters before, and by the next semester he would be ready to take the most difficult English course offered at this school. He also said that he was interested in getting his degree as soon as possible and he had already asked his adviser for permission to take the final examination. "I am glad to hear that you are making such good progress", I said to Bill. Then I asked him if he could tell me the secret of his success. He answered that the secret of his success was simple and he studied at least two hours a day to improve his English.
After that I told Bill I had a little difficulty with my course in French at the moment. I asid that I hadn't studied very hard the last semester, but I would work harder in the future.
