2a Do the two tasks below using the on-line letter written by Rys Krasowski from Poland.
1 Take one minute to read the letter and answer the three questions below.
a) What did Rys learn in his English lessons in Poland?
b) Who were Stefan, Zofia, Jose and Maria?
c) Where did Rys find an English tutor?
I speak Polish, because I was born in Poland. But I always wanted to speak English.
At last I found a school that I thought was the best to help me reach my goal; I had come to America. With a few exceptions everything was in English. People spoke a language that was my favourite; papers and books were filled up with English words; streets had English names; from the radio and TV I heard English expressions — English, English, English! Everywhere English!
But although I heard it, saw it and felt its presence, it was hard for me to understand it and express myself in that language. The few lessons of English that I had taken in Poland only helped me to say who I was, what I was, how old I was, where I was from, some polite phrases and nothing else.
So I bought a few books and I began my education, learning by heart chapter after chapter. But it wasntaskt enough. A mirror, a wall and other objects were polite listeners, but they didntaskt respond. They couldntaskt correct me if I was wrong. I had to talk to somebody.
But I didntaskt stop and after a few weeks I found a tutor from the Literacy Volunteers of America, My vocabulary increased with words that made me feel proud of myself, and at one of our weekly meetings I showed off by making a speech: "My empirical knowledge of English emanates from persistence of effective exploration. Boggling over an enormous amount of various publications effectuated my eloquence. From then on my apprehension of not being understandable dissipated melrievablyl"
"What are you talking about?" my tutor stared at me in surprise. "Well, well, well, I think that Itaskll have to learn English before coming to teach you!" And that was our last meeting. This time the tutor left.
Sitting alone, in my room, I am lost in thoughts. Maybe I try too hard. Maybe I expect too much. Maybe, well, after all a mirror, a wall and other objects are not so bad. They dontaskt talk, they dontaskt answer questions but they listen to me. And most important of all — they dontaskt leave
