Read the conversation. Circle Peter's and Yaming's free-time activities.
Peter: Hey Yaming! What are you up to
Yaming: Hi Peter. I'm doing calligraphy.
Peter: It's beautiful! What are you writing
Yaming: It's a poem by Li Bai. My grandmother taught
me how to write it.
Peter: What's this character
Yaming: It's yue. It means “moon”.
Peter: It's nice! I like watching you write like that. But it looks difficult.
Yaming: Well, the first step is always the hardest. When I started to do calligraphy, I spent hours practising single strokes.
Peter: I know how that feels! My dad's teaching me to play the guitar. It's difficult, but he always encourages me not to give up.
Yaming: Exactly. Now I do calligraphy to relax. I even like how the ink smells! Why did you choose to play the guitar
Peter: I think playing the guitar is cool. Will you teach me to
write a poem I can teach you to play a song in return.
Yaming: It's a deal!

4. What do you think "The first step is always the hardest" means
5. How do you usually feel when you manage to do something
difficult Give an example.
It means that when you start to learn or do something new, the first part is always the hardest. When you begin a new skill or task, you have to learn the basic things and get over the first problems, which is often harder than the later parts.
I usually feel proud. For example, when I first learned to ride a bike, I kept falling down and it was really hard, but after weeks of practice, I finally rode it by myself. I felt so proud of myself and glad that I didn’t stop trying.
Listen to the conversation and role-play it.
