There are two ways of doing this:
��You can repeat Paul's words(direct speech)
Paul said, "I'm feeling ill"

Paul said that he was feeling ill.

英語って・・・
<英語って勉強しても勉強しても物足りないっていうか、いつまで経っても自分の英語に満足できないんだよね
でも勉強すればするほど、今まで聞き取れなかったものが聞き取れるようになってくるし、上達しているのが実感できるから、それがすごくうれしい
勉強にゴールというものは存在しない。
自分で目標を立てる→がんばって取り組む→目標を達成する→
新たな目標を立てる→がんばって取り組む→目標を達成する→ また新たな目標を立てる→・・・
常にこれの繰り返しだと思う。
簡単に目標を達成して、それで終了しちゃったら人生つまんないもんね
で、なぜこのブログを作ったのかというと実は私かなりの
三日坊主なのです
問題集1冊終わらせたことってあまりない
いつも買って満足しちゃうのよ
そこでブログを作って、日々の勉強の進行状況（覚えたこと）を書いてけば多少さぼりづらくなるかなと・・・。
そう、みなさんにこのブログ読まれれば読まれるほど私にとっては
プレッシャーなのです（笑）
あと、英語以外に中国語も勉強しているので
英語 ときどき中国語の学習状況を書き綴りたいな
