eign　movies。　I　hesitated；　for　I　was　junior　3　then；　bunches　of　things　required　time　and　energy　to　deal　with。　But　I　couldn’t　say　no　to　her　at　the　time　she　lent　me　six　DVDs　of　Star　Wars　and　urged　me　to　try　them。　She　knew　I　love　science　so　she　chose　the　series　for　me；　insisting　that　I　was　bound　to　love　them。　Facing　her　passion；　I　had　to　accept　them　and　brought　them　home。　I　didn’t　set　finger　to　them　till　one　night　I　got　tired　of　the　grammar　excises　and　couldn’t　go　on；　and　then　I　recalled　Sara’s　encouragement；　so　I　quickly　turned　on　the　puter　and　began　playing　the　DVD。

I　was　fascinated　by　Star　Wars。　Its　plot　and　perfect　pictures　tightly　grasped　my　heart。　For　the　first　time　I　broke　the　strict　discipline　I　had　obeyed　for　more　than　two　years；　I　went　to　bed　unwillingly　till　the　clock　showed　it　was　12：40　at　night。

Anyway；　despite　the　fact　that　watching　movies　sometimes　wears　you　out；　I　still　consider　it　a　wonderful　way　of　learning　English　bec
