We all remember seeing hitchhikers, standing by the side of the road, thumb, sticking out, waiting for a lift. But it is getting rare nowadays. What killed hitchhiking? Safety is often mentioned as a reason. Movies about murderous hitchhikers and real-life crime have put many drivers off picking up hitchhikers. That no single women picked me up on my journey to Manchester no doubt reflects the safety fear: a large, strangely dressed man is seen as dangerous.
But the reason may be more complex: hitchhiking happens where people don’t have cars and transport services are poor. Plenty of people still hitchhike in Poland and Romania. Perhaps the rising level of car ownership in the UK means the few people lift hitchhiking are usually considered strange. Why can’t they afford cars? Why can’t they take the coach or the train?
Three-quarters of the UK population have access to a car; many of the remainder will be quite old. The potential hitchhiking population is therefore small. Yet my trip proves it’s still possible to hitchhike. The people who picks me up were very interesting-lawyer, retired surgeon, tank commander, carpenter, man who live in an isolated farmhouse and a couple living up in the mountains. My conclusion is that only really interesting people are mad enough to pick up fat blokes in red, spotted scarves. Most just wanted to do someone a good turn; a few said they were so surprised to see a hitchhiker that they couldn’t help stopping.
The future of hitchhiking most likely lies with car-sharing organized over the Internet, via sites such as hitchhikers. org. But for now, you can still stick your thumb out (actually, I didn’t do much of that, preferring just to hold up my destination sign) and people—wonderful, caring, sharing, unafraid people—will stop.
In the UK, with its cheap coaches and reasonable rail service, I don’t think I’ll make a habit of it. But having enjoyed it so much, I’m ready now to do a big trip across Europe and beyond. In the 1970s a female friend of my wife’s hitchhiked to India. How wonderful it would be to have another go, though Afghanistan might be a challenge. I wish I’d got that tank commander’s mobile number.

I started to study English by myself when I was about 15 because of Michael Jackson. He’s been my idol since 1991, and I really wanted to understand him and his music. 1. I was very patient, and that helped me a lot in the process of learning English by myself.

Actually, I can’t describe the techniques I used to learn it, because it was almost automatic for me to start understanding English after a period of hard work trying to translate texts, dialogues and songs. 2.

One thing that I can say is that I started learning English through comparing patterns and observing the language structure, comparing it to Portuguese and trying to memorize rules.  3.  Another thing that helped me a lot is the fact that I would spend hours studying the uses, tenses, etc. of the words I could notice.

 4.    It was the hardest part of the process for me, because the only source I had was music, although I used a pronunciation dictionary , too.

5.    Later on I entered UFMG and really started studying English. Today I’m a teacher at an English Course, and I really enjoy it, because I can improve my English each day.

A.Despite the difficulty, I could learn everything well.

B.So I really can’t say exactly how I’ve achieved proficiency(熟练).

C.With the help of my teacher, I learned pronunciation well.

D.So I can say that a strong will is the key to my success.

E.  After having a large vocabulary, I started working on pronunciation.

F.  And I used to make lists of words in order to memorize them and their meanings.

G.I used to use a dictionary to find the meaning of each word in songs written by him.
