Original –

After CNY, the previous boss left, I was very busy at work. The new boss is not familiar with our routine work, so I took over most of the wok. I almost worked overtime every day of this week, but I didn’t forget to learn English. Currently I know that English in listening and speaking are very important for me whether in the current job or a new job. I need to get a lot of progress in a short time, so I listened short articles at home for 40 minutes to one hour five days a week. I hope it would be helpful for me if I could insist it for two or three months.

Correction –

After CNY our former boss left so I was very busy at work. The new boss is not yet familiar with our routine work, so I took over most of it. I worked overtime almost every day this week, but I didn’t forget to study English. Currently I know that English listening and speaking are very important for me, whether it’s in my current job or a new job. I need to make a lot of progress in a short time, so five days a week I listen to a few short articles at home for about 40 minutes. I hope it will be beneficial for me if I can keep it up for two or three months.
