楼主 (文学城)

其实,我是一个很贪玩的人,和大家分享一下我的秘密:)

欢迎发音语法等等砖头!:)

Merry Christmas to everyone in 美语世界!:)

 

Persistence is the ability to stick with something. 

Unfortunately, lack of persistence is one of my characteristics. I am easily interested in something,  and then I would purchase the related tools, the materials and sometimes even register the related class. That includes playing guitar, learning sketching,  cooking, playing piano, etc. . But my interest on the subject is going to fizzle out very soon.    None of above is excused.    Fortunately, the only exception I could recall is my journey of studying USMLE. I remembered clearly that when I said I wanted to be a doctor in the US, the answers included mainly the following:

"That required very good communication skills!"

"You need to be very good at English."

"Green card is a must. "

"The exams are very hard and tedious. Are u sure you could make it?"

"I heard of so many failed cases. "

"What if you match the residency in Alaska?"

  I had nothing they mentioned above.  I even barely knew the medical terms in English as what I had learned were almost all in Chinese. But hey, it might save me about $300,000 tuition fee  and expenses if I made it.     I googled the Internet and found the learning materials and I even found several study partners.  We formed a study group and studied together about one to two hours a day.  It was very interesting as we took turns to read books and discuss the content if not clear.  The whole process was full of fun.  Smoothly, all of us in my small group succeeded in this journey.  It was amazing as I had no persistence on almost everything. Now looking back, the secret was to study with others.   So, let us study English together in MeiYuShiJie(MYSJ). Your dream will come true.:)

Y religious congregate, help build stronger faith. Internet

'Internet' should be capitalized in all cases. a special term, for international network system.

'internet', is just normal term----between some networks

Obviously you have one good persistence

which is playing. 

a good writing and speaking.

Hahaha.  

When I took my exam. There are several questions about persistence. The bad is I don’t know the meaning of persistence.

Your story is very inspiring. Actually you do have strong persis

Your story is very inspiring. Actually you do have strong persistences!
There are tons of medical terminologies such as human organ names and medicine names, etc. you would encounter. Medicine is one of the most challenging fields in higher education.

是不是chopping的感觉?还有呢?我觉得是不是长音不够长,短音不够短?R卷舌不够?还有什么需要注意的呢?:)

谢谢花董,学了“Internet”!嗯,我相信三人行必有我师,一个人坚持太需要毅力:)

The fizzle out I used here is from the news that you posted“you pay for next one' bill” : https://bbs.wenxuecity.com/mysj/218146.html

Originally, I started to use “fade away”, but later I felt that “fizzle out”was more accurate, it suits my半途而废的性格:)

I wanted to say that you are really a hero. 我知道在美国做医生每一步都不容易需要超常

I wanted to say that you are really a hero. 我知道在美国做医生每一步都不容易需要超常的努力和毅力,you all went through. I am so proud of you. don’t push yourself so much you are good enough

秘诀就是几个人一起学啊。就像马拉松,是不是也有陪跑一说?一个人真是需要毅力,几个人一起走真是轻松容易很多:)

如果,目标坚定,不可能走不成:)

Hero绝对谈不上。印度人几乎班里一半人都在美国当医生,是因为他们有这个风气,

中国人比较妄自菲薄:)
