Ⅶ.(One possible version)
As a student, you may know the importance of English. I believe that learning English is just like learning to play the piano; by practicing every day. We must use English every day. I not only answer the teacher’s questions in English, but also speak English as much as I can after class. I often practice conversations with my friends. I think that doing lots of listening practice is one of the secrets of becoming a good language learner. I’ve learned a lot by working with a group.
Watching English-language TV programs can help a lot.
The most important rule for learning English is “Don’t be afraid of making
mistakes, because everyone makes mistakes”.
