阅读课文，选择最佳选项。 The author used to think of her mother’s English as ______.
I was fond of learning English since my childhood. But when I was in my junior middle school, I never got high marks in the tests. And I thought that was because I did not have a gift for English learning. One day when I was attending an English class, I finally realized what my problem was. During that class, my teacher asked me to read aloud a lesson. I thought I had done a poor job. To my surprise, my teacher said that I had good pronunciation, and what I needed was more practice. The English class has changed my life. Every time I think that something is impossible for me, I will think of it and tell myself that nothing is impossible.

语言到底是用来干什么的呢？一些人认为它是用来操 练语法规则和学习一大堆单词——单词越长越好。这 个想法是错误的。语言是用来交换思想，进行交流沟 通的！

What is language for? Some people seem to think it’ s for practicing grammar rules and learning lists of words---the longer the words the better. That’s wrong. Language is for the exchange of ideas, for communication.

I began to write stories using all the Englishes I grew up with: the English she used with me, ( which for lack of a better term might be described as “broken”,)and what I imagine to be her translation of her Chinese, her internal language, and for that I sought to preserve the essence, but neither an English nor a Chinese structure. 指代第一句话
