Learning the Guitar
Since I started the sixth grade, I also started learning the guitar⁽¹⁾. I like to sing along⁽²⁾ as I play. However, my guitar is for “children.” It’s small. I’ve already grown up⁽³⁾ now, so I need a standard sized guitar. Today, my mother bought me a second-hand⁽⁴⁾ guitar. Even though there is a scratch⁽⁵⁾ on the handle⁽⁶⁾, the quality of the sound is still as good as a new one. I am very satisfied with⁽⁷⁾ it.

學吉他
我從小學六年級時，就開始學吉他，我喜歡自彈自唱，可是我的吉他是兒童的尺寸，它比一般的吉他要小，現在我已經長大許多，所以我需要一把標準大小的吉他，今天媽媽買了一把二手吉他給我，雖然把手上有一道刮痕，但是音色很好，我非常的滿意。
