You are sure to improve your English if you are determined. But you should always carry on studying. Here is a list of tips to help you.

The Internet is your friend. You probably have already used several websites for your study.

Look for magazines that relate to the subjects you might be interested in, things like Reader's

Digest, National Geographic or Nature. 1. If you invest in a paper copy, you can write and make notes on it.

2. When you are in a test, you are under pressure to understand and answer questions quickly. However, it's better to take time to experiment when preparing for exams. If you are using exam practice materials, try reading the text before the questions, and then the questions before the text.

Read for fun. Australians read a lot as you may have noticed if you travel by bus or train. 3. People who are good at reading are people who enjoy reading.

Practise reading quickly. Try to read in groups of words — the eyes move in little jumps when you read, they do not scan steadily. 4.

Use the strategies of surveying, skimming and scanning, but not all the time. Another strategy you can try is to scan the text first for words you do not know. Check their meaning and pronunciation, and then read the text.

Take it with you. 5. Pull it out and read for a few minutes when you have nothing else to do.

Remember, practice makes perfect, so read for at least 30 minutes a day.

A. Try different reading styles.

B. Put a book or a magazine in your pocket or bag when you go out.

C. You may start your own library.

D. Then see how many words you can read in one minute.

E. These can be read online or in hard copy.

F. Join in a chat room and work in groups.

G. Read something you enjoy, e.g. the Harry Potter stories.

Let us begin by saying what does not cause our dreams. Our dreams do not come from "another world ". They are not messages from outside sources. They are not a look into the future, either.

All our dreams have something to do with our feelings, fears, longings, wishes, needs and memories. If a person is hungry, or tired, or cold, his dreams may include a feeling of this kind . If the covers on your body, such as a quilt or a blanket, have slipped off your bed, you may dream that you are sleeping on the ice or snow. The material for the dream you will have tonight is likely to come from the experience you have today.

So the subject of your dream usually comes from something that has an effect on you while you are sleeping (feeling of cold, discomfort, etc.) and it may also use your past experiences and the wishes and interests you have now. This is why children are likely to dream of fairies, older children of school examinations, hungry people of food, homesick soldiers of their families and prisoners of freedom.

To show you how this is happening while you are asleep and how your needs and wishes can all be joined together in a dream, here is the story of an experiment. A man was asleep and the back of his hand was rubbed with a piece of absorbed cotton. He would dream he was in hospital and his charming girlfriend was visiting him, sitting on the bed and feeling gently his hands.

There are some scientists who have made a special study of why we dream, what we dream and what those dreams mean. Their explanations of dreams, though a bit reasonable, are not accepted by everyone, but they offer an interesting approach to the problem. They believe that dreams are mostly expressions of wishes that do not come true. In other words, dreams are a way of having your wishes carried out.
