参考答案

Well, it’s been quite a while. I remember it was in the third year of my primary school that I started to talk in a language that was not my mother tongue.

这个时间有点久远了。我记得我是在上小学三年级的时候我开始说外语了。

I was actually in a classroom where our English teacher prepared us a group activity in which we were required to introduce ourselves in English with three simple sentences in front of the group members.

当时是在教室里面，我们的英语老师为我们准备了一个小组活动，这个活动里面我们会用三个英语简单句来向组员们做自我介绍。

Unlike the ordinary lessons, it was a pilot one where some other teachers in our school also participated in. But, they just sat at the back of the classroom, observing our teacher’s teaching and the students’ learning.

和其它的普通课程不一样，这个是一个实验课程，里面来了我们学校的很多老师。但是，他们只是坐在教室的后面，观察我们老师的教学以及学生的学习。

Honestly, I couldn’t remember the whole three sentences, but I do remember two of them, which were My name is Jack, and I come from Harbin. You know, I had actually made two mistakes before I blurted out the correct words.

老实讲，我不太记得完整的三个句子了。但是，我记得其中的两个，一个是，我的名字叫Jack (这是我当时的英文名)，还有一个就是：我来自哈尔滨。我其实在蹦出正确英语之前犯了两次错误。

Well, I was quite nervous at that time. The main reason was that there were many teacher observers in our classroom, which made me feel like we were criminals being watched. But, I also felt a great sense of achievement as that’s the first time I officially talked in English!

我当时还是特别紧张的。主要的原因就是当时有很多老师观察员在我们教室里面，这让我觉得我们就像被监控着的罪犯一样。但是，我同时也感到了巨大的成就感。因为，那是我第1次正式说出了英语。
