My English teacher noticed my worry and talked to me, saying that such events could help me develop a more confident 29 (性格). She also told me that good 30 (沟通) is the foundation of success in any team activity.
The events included speeches, role-plays, and even some tasks that 31 (需要) us to work with new partners.

Once, we had the chance to 33 (采访) a foreign teacher who shared useful tips on English learning.

With the support of my friends and teachers, I gradually became more brave and outgoing. This experience not only made my school life more colourful but also taught me the importance of trying new things.
