【参考范文】　　One possible version　　Xiao Liu has learned English for several years. He can do well in English tests. He can read English books and magazines. But he hasn't laid great emphasis (强调，重点) on practising English listening and speaking. Lask week, when he met with a foreign guest, he was shocked, because not only did he misunderstand what the foreigner (外国人，外人) said but he couldn't express himself in English.

Now he has made up his mind to try every means to improve his listening and speaking ability. He will listen to English tape record and English broadcast every day. He will practise speaking English with his friends after class. He hopes to meet with the same foreigner and talk to him freely in English some day.
