2019年将是最好的一年

There was a lot of depressing news on television and the radio in 2018. However, the year 2019 will be the best ever. It will be particularly good for students who learn English. They will have many chances to improve listening, speaking, reading and writing skills. Everybody's New Year's resolution should be to use many websites focusing on language learning. Just 30 minutes a day of studying will help to improve fluency and comprehension skills.
The year 2019 will be great if we work together and treat each other with respect. It will be the year of helping those who are less fortunate. It will be a great year for hobbies. The stars in the sky will line up to send positive energy to our hobbies. Financially, we will have to be careful so we don't have money problems. Finally, we will all be healthier. We will take better care of our body by exercising more and eating nutritious food.
