After the mid-term exam I think I should pay more attention and study harder on my studies. Take the linguistics for example; I didn’t do well on the subject and might fail it in the end of the semester. It is very complex and has to memorize lots of proper noun, for example, morphemes, bound and free morphemes, compound noun, inflectional suffix…, etc. We have to distinguish those proper nouns and write down the meanings of each proper noun. Beside, we should have the ability to recognize which is the inflectional suffix or prefix. I don’t why we should learn it. If we want to be an English teacher we should be good at the subject? Is the linguistics useful for everyone as speaking, writing, and listening? Although the subject will take me a lot of time to prepare, I still have to pass it. It is because that it is my duty to pass all the subjects no matter how I like it or not.
