The students in the university are so different from those in high schools.
Most of my friends in college have a common goal with me. They cherished
the same ideals and took the same courses as mine. I was much more
untroubled talking to them. I would not reject them because they were nice
subjects of talking.
Students who undertook the same training process perceived the efficacy of
the message abandonment strategy in different ways. Tien Long and Pei Pei declared
that the abandonment strategy was not a strategy they would use. Tien Long exhorted
that EFL learners should endeavor to resort to the other strategies, instead of
abandoning any word:
For message abandonment, I did not think it was an advantageous strategy.
Instead of giving up, I would try my best to express. It should be better to
think of how to explain what we intended to express. I would advise that
communication in English sometimes is like taking an examination. When
encountering a difficult quiz, we should not just leave blanks during
communication. I believed that it was necessary to be more aggressive and
tried to be precise or answer.
