Share your experience in using a comic website to learn English (free in length)

I think it is a good experience and practice to practice English with English comics. Although some words need to jump out to check, but generally guess what it means, and then with the content of the favorite story, will have more motivation to see, but also can learn something

1.highway-a public road, especially an important road that joins cities or towns together

The photograph showed a lonely stretch of Arizona highway.

2.Cattle- cows and bulls that are kept for their milk or meat

These cattle are being fattened up for slaughter.
 

3. honk- to make a short, loud noise, or to sound a horn to make such a noise

The cars honking (their horns) kept us awake half the night.



I think this little story is very interesting and cute. Then he is very close to our life. That is really a lot of noise, which will make people feel annoyed and want to escape.  Although he evaded the problem at first, he later thought that he could wear headphones to isolate the noise and make him happy!  Finally, he let the cows wear them and let them relax too!  In fact, although many things are very troublesome and want to escape, but many times there are solutions!

Rewrite The Stars

[Verse 1: Phillip Carlyle]
You know I want you

It's not a secret I try to hide

I know you want me

So don't keep saying our hands are tied

You claim it's not in the cards

And fate is pulling you miles away

And out of reach from me

But you're here in my heart

So who can stop me if I decide

That you're my destiny?

[Chorus 1: Phillip Carlyle]
What if we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine

Nothing could keep us apart
You'd be the one I was meant to find
It's up to you, and it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
So why don't we rewrite the stars?
Maybe the world could be ours
Tonight

[Verse 2: Anne Wheeler]
You think it's easy
You think I don't want to run to you
But there are mountains
And there are doors that we can't walk through
I know you're wondering why
Because we're able to be
Just you and me
Within these walls
But when we go outside
You're gonna wake up and see that it was hopeless after all

[Chorus 2: Anne Wheeler]
No one can rewrite the stars
How can you say you'll be mine?
Everything keeps us apart
And I'm not the one you were meant to find
It's not up to you, it's not up to me
When everyone tells us what we can be
How can we rewrite the stars?
Say that the world can be ours
Tonight

[Post Chorus: Both, Anne Wheeler, Phillip Carlyle]
All I want is to fly with you
All I want is to fall with you
So just give me all of you
It feels impossible
It's not impossible
Is it impossible?
Say that it's possible

[Chorus 3: Phillip Carlyle and Anne Wheeler]
How do we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine?
Nothing can keep us apart
Cause you are the one I was meant to find
It's up to you, and it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
And why don't we rewrite the stars?
Changing the world to be ours

[Outro: Anne Wheeler]
You know I want you
It's not a secret I try to hide
But I can't have you
We're bound to break and
My hands are tied

一.Who is the singer? 

Anne-Marie & James Arthur

二.Three words you learned 

(1)Destiny

People want to control/determine/take charge of their own destinies.

(2)Mile

The nearest town is ten miles away.

(3)Gonna

What are you gonna do?

三.Why do you like the song?

I think its melody is very special and it feels very struggling. However, looking at the lyrics, the content is even more struggling. The lyrics are a dialogue between a man and a woman. They want to jump off reality, but they can't rewrite their destiny. In the end, they can only accept the facts helplessly. They can also be told that they are the world, and the destiny can't be rewritten. They can only master it by themselves.
