To begin ..

the only reason that made me read this book is because we are going to have an exam in it next week ..

I really hoped that i would have read it in a better circumstances so I would gain more knowledge and enjoyment ..

But rather than that , I really had some difficulties reading it , because most of the examples that are given are from another languages from all around the world and it was so hard to understand them ..

Wish me good luck in my exam , cuz I really don't think that I will do good in it .
