My Mum Only Had One Eye

My Mum only had one eye. I hate her … She was such an embarrassment. She
cooked for students and teachers to support the family. There was this one day during
elementary school where my mum came to say hello to me. I was so embarrassed.

How could she do this to me? I ignored her, threw her a hateful look and run out.
The next day at school one of my classmates said,” E…, Your mum only has one eye!”
I wanted to bury myself. I also wanted my mum to just disappear. I confronted her that
day and said, “if you’re only going to make me a laughing stock, Why don’t you just
die?”

My mum did not respond … I didn’t even stop to think for a second about what
had said, because I was full of anger. I was oblivious to her feeling. I wanted out of that
house and had nothing to do with her. So I studied very hard, got a chance to go abroad
to study.

Then, I got married. I bought a house of my own. I had kids of my own. I was
happy with my life, my kids, and the comforts. Then one day, my mother came to visit
me. She hadn’t seen me in years and she didn’t even meet her grandchildren.

When she stood by the door, my children scream at her, and I yelled at her for
coming over uninvited. I scream at her, “How dare you come to my house and scare my
children! GET OUT OF HERE! NOW!!!” And to this, my mother quietly answered.
“I’m so sorry. I may have gotten the wrong address.” And then she disappeared out of
sight.

One day, a letter regarding a school reunion came to my house. Therefore, I lied
to my wife that I was going on a business trip. After the reunion, I went to my mother’s
shack I could not find her. Not too long, my neighbors came and said that my mother
had died. I did not shed a single tear. They handed me a letter that she had wanted me
to have.
“My dearest son, I think of you all the time. I’m sorry that I came to your house
and scared your children. I was so glad when I heard you were coming for the reunion,
but I may not be able to even get out of bed to see you. I’m sorry that I was a constant
embarrassment to you when you were growing up. You see …. When you were very
little, you got into an accident, and lost your eye. As a mother, I couldn’t stand watching
you having to grow up with one eye so I gave you mine. I was so proud of my son who
was seeing a whole new world for me, in my place, with that eye. With all my love to
you, Your Mother.”

This text is for questions 31 to 35

Learning English through music and songs can be very enjoyable. You can mix
pleasure learning when you listen to a song and exploit the song as a means to your
English Progress. Some underlying reason can be drawn to support the idea why we
use songs in language learning.

Firstly, “the song stuck in my head” phenomenon (the echoing in our minds of the
last song we heard after leaving a restaurant, shopping malls, etc) can be both
enjoyable and sometimes unnerving. This phenomenon also seems to reinforce the
idea that songs work on our short-and-long term memory.

Secondly, a song is general also use simple conversation language, with a lot of
repetition, which is just what many learners look for sample text. The fact that they are
effective makes them many times more motivating than other text. Although usually
sample, some songs can be quite complex syntactically, lexically and poetically and can
be analyzed in the same way as any other literary sample.
Furthermore, songs can be appropriated by listeners for their own purposes. Most pop
songs and probably many other types don’t have precise people, place or time
references.

In addition, songs are relaxing. They provide variety and fun, and encourage
harmony within oneself and within one group. Little wonder they are important tools in
sustaining culture, religion patriotism and, yes, even revolutions
Last but not least, there are many learning activities we can do with songs, such as
studying grammar, practicing selective listening comprehension, translating songs,
learning vocabulary and studying the culture.
Thus, from the elaboration above, it can be concluded that by learning through music
and songs, learning English can be enjoyable and it is fun to English
