7.Many students ask for advice about improving their English.There are three basic questions.The first question is about real English.Li Hao from Hubei wrote,"I enjoy watching English films and listening to real English songs.But it takes a long time.What do you think?"
This is a great way to learn English!Talk about the film or song with your friends,and guess the meaning of the new words.Just enjoy yourself!
The second question is about speaking.Sam,from Suzhou wrote,"Our school has a foreign teacher.But I'm shy and can't speak to her.What should I do?"
When I visit China,lots of people in the street say,"Hello!How are you?Where are you from?Do you like China?"These are good questions to start a conversation.Many people are shy when they speak English,so before you begin,take a deep breath and smile!Smiling always helps.
The third question is about vocabulary.Olive,from Anhui wrote,"I want to remember all the new words.I wrote them down,but I forget them quickly.What should I do?"

| ※When parents get angry,it isn't the time to get angry back.A lot of times they're not upset with you,but with their boss,the neighbor,or the price of vegetables.You just happen to be there at the wrong time.Look hurt?Get out of the way when they're in a bad mood.They need some time and space.Go outside,to a friend's house,or to your room.At last they will become calm and miss you. |
| ※If you have trouble talking to your parents,or if they get angry every time you try to discuss something,write a note.Put it on their bedside table.Parents are easily moved by notes like this and will probably keep them forever. |
| ※Do not create situations where there is a winner and a loser.You're the child and will probably lose most of the time.How many times have you grounded your mother or taken away the phone privileges(特权) from your dad?Try to compromise with each other and work out a situation where both of you win. |
| ※Ask your parents once a day,"Is there anything I can do for you?"Most of the time they will probably say no,or give you something that will take a few minutes to complete.Your parents will love this and see you as a very cooperative(可合作的) person.When this happens,they will probably be more cooperative with you.You could also surprise them by doing something they don't make you do.They'll tell everyone you are the best possible son or daughter and,what's more,they will believe it. ※Click for more information at the red icon on the left. |

As you start reading a book,poem,or story,do so with no thought at all and the experience will improve your writing.Just read for pleasure to begin with,or to learn.As you progress through the work,think about whether it is"easy"reading or not.Do you become so interested in the subject and flow of the writing that you completely forget the person who wrote it,or does the composition sometimes call too much attention to itself through words and phrases that seem out of place or unexpected?The second situation is a chance to learn from the writer's mistakes.In fact,the reader should not have to worry about how a writer does"his thing"…he should be able to just enjoy and learn.Every time a word strikes you as poorly chosen,stop to consider why it has this effect.Also,do not spend a lot of time analyzing (分析) the passage but put more efforts in enjoying it from the whole.
Another thing I do,particularly with nonfiction (非小说) books,is to select a part to read as if it is a completely separate work.Once again,read as a common reader rather than a critic (批评家).For learning how words and phrases work together on the most basic level,however,nothing is more suitable than devoting yourself to reading poems.A poet is often trying to put a book's worth of meaning and feelings into lines,and every side of the work shows a very close attention to craft (工艺).
As you can see,there is no simple way of reading to improve your writing.The key is not to make it boring.Select writers you admire or like most,and enjoy their works as anyone else would.As long as you are reading,you are improving yourself as a writer.
