  Thank you for everyone's reward, no need to mention one by one, it can be seen on the fans list.

  After a while, the beeping sound stopped and Lin Hong saw several lines of green English text appear on the middle black background screen of the monitor. The top line read "apple][", which was the model number of this computer. The second line read "dos_version_3.3_systtester". The third line displayed a date, indicating January 1983.

  At the very bottom, there is a lone "]" symbol jumping around, which is the command line prompt, from where commands can be inputted, but Lin Hong still doesn't know what this symbol means.

  He just wanted to take a look at what it was like after the computer started up, after all this was a scene he had been looking forward to for a long time.

  Is this a computer?

  Looking at what was displayed on the monitor, Lin Hong felt a little disappointed. The difference between this and what he had imagined was too great. In his imagination, the computer should be a very powerful machine that could perform very complex functions. But now, it seemed like nothing was happening.

  But he was also just disappointed, just like looking at a long-awaited landscape, it didn't match the legend at first glance.

  Lin Hong knew that this was because he still didn't understand how to operate this thing, so he couldn't see its power. After all, Lus had detailed how he used the computer to do some things that shocked him greatly. Although he hadn't seen it personally, from Lus's description, he could also imagine the wonders of those things.

  Besides, Lin Hong had also seen the power of arcade games. Those games were incredibly sophisticated, weren't they also a function of computers?

  Lin Hong realized that in order to learn computer well, he must improve his English reading and writing skills. Whether it's a thick manual or the content inside the computer, they are all in English, which makes him feel a bit dizzy at present.

  Lin Hong walked over to the bookshelf and picked up the Chinese book again, flipping through it quickly.

  This is a textbook that mainly introduces the BASIC programming language, with the author focusing on how to use this language to write programs on Apple computers, but without covering the specific operation of Apple computers. The author explicitly states in the preface that he assumes readers already have a basic understanding of operating an Apple computer.

  Although Lin Hong now wants to use the computer quickly, he has no way. He must improve his English reading and writing skills before he can understand the computer manual.

  Past experience has taught him that when learning anything, in order to save time, it's best to ask someone with experience for guidance, as this is often much more efficient than trying to figure things out on his own.

  Then Lin Hong found his mother who was cleaning his room and asked directly: "Mom, I want to quickly improve my English skills, can you give me some advice?"

  Feng Wanxian was taken aback for a moment, then asked strangely, "Isn't your English already very good?"

  Lin Hong shook his head: "My oral English is fine, but my ability is very poor. I only know some simple English words, and most of the words I don't recognize at all."

  Feng Wen said that her son learned to speak through radio, just like how children learn to talk in life, although they can speak, but not necessarily read or write.

  It seems like it's a problem with the son's English vocabulary.

  According to the current education system, schools only teach English after junior high school. However, since her son took the initiative to offer suggestions, Feng Wen was also very happy.

  Feng Wan gave him several suggestions, on the one hand, to review vocabulary, and on the other hand, to read relevant textbooks, learn English grammar and sentence structure. After all, there are some differences between English and Chinese grammar, sometimes just knowing the words is not enough to fully understand the meaning of a sentence.

  Feng Wan immediately fetched the English textbooks from grade one to grade three from the bookshelf, and also a thick English-Chinese dictionary.

  "Now your spoken English is fine, and you should be able to learn quickly. But there's one thing I need to correct," Feng said to Lin Hong, "your accent now leans more towards a New York accent, similar to Cook's. However, in the US, the New York accent isn't very popular, and this kind of accent is often referred to as 'country' or 'rural'."

  Due to work reasons, Feng Wen often comes into contact with foreign guests, and colleagues and friends around her have gone abroad relatively more frequently, so they know about this matter.

  In fact, New York accent is not standard American English, just like Putonghua with Shanghai accent is not standard Putonghua.

  In New York, there are immigrants from all over the world, and the New York accent is a big mixture of southern and northern accents, Irish, German, Yiddish, Latin, and some Caribbean accents. Two professors in the linguistics department at New York University found that the New York accent is the least liked English accent in America.

  In the United States, because the South was poorer than the North in the past, a Southern accent is considered more rustic and less classy. The most standard accent is from the Chicago area in the North, which is recognized as the "common language" of American English, and TV announcers use this accent.

  The New York accent sounds rough and unrefined, and many Americans from other regions don't take kindly to it. However, some people who work on Wall Street even go out of their way to learn the accent in order to give off a tough, hard-to-deal-with impression.

  So in everyone's ears, Roy Cook and Lin Hong's accents are very strange, as if their pronunciation is not standard at all.

  Feng Wan told Lin Hong this, just in case he encountered any problems in this aspect later on, to remind him. If he was willing, he could correct his pronunciation. However, if it couldn't be corrected, it didn't matter much anyway. After all, language is for communication, as long as you can understand each other, that's fine.

  Then, Feng Wan followed the textbook and carefully explained to Lin Hong the basic pronunciation rules of English, such as how to divide a word into several syllables, and how to pronounce when the stress is on the vowel ending.

  This pronunciation rule is the most basic thing, just like Pinyin in Chinese. Once you master it, you can learn vocabulary based on dictionaries later on.

  As a result, Feng Wan was shocked by Lin Hong's super strong memory. She had only spoken once, and Lin Hong's pronunciation of the words was already basically flawless, and he could also infer and generalize, speaking fluently and accurately. She originally wanted to teach her son more content, but in the end, there was nothing left to say.

  Helpless, she had no choice but to hand over a few sentences and continue helping Lin Hong clean up the room.

  Lin Hong returned to the study, first quickly flipped through the English textbooks from grade one to three, while reading and corresponding his previous oral and practical vocabulary one by one, then focused on the relevant grammar again. This process took only about half an hour.

  Half an hour later, he picked up the English-Chinese dictionary and began to flip through it quickly. This was what he really wanted to see. He planned to finish this dictionary before going to read that computer manual.
