Do you know something about World War I ?



I attended a lecture that based on the War World I history, and I really enjoyed it. The first half lecture was about the new technology in World War I, and the second half lecture was about the spring/summer offensive in 1915. I did not attend the second half lecture. The instructor lectured on new weapon that appeared in the World War I such as machine gun, artillery, and motorized vehicles. She also lectured about some defensive tactics that were used by both sides in World War I. At the last of the first half lecture, she emphasized that “the defensive is most important in WWI" . This was my third time to attend a lecture. Before this lecture I attended two lectures, which I was ignorant about. I found that to attend a lecture in your study of field or your interests may help you to comprehend the lecture easily. Obviously, there were too many buzzwords in each study of field, and we are not able to know them all. Even though I have already been familiar to those buzzwords since long time ago, I still had some problem listening lecture not only the speed of talking, but also the accent. I think I should attend more lecture in order to make me comfortable in this kind of university lecture.
