| Have you learned other languages 1 Chinese? I have learned English 2 three years at school. At first, it was hard for me to 3 the teacher when she talked to the class. She spoke too quickly. Also, I 4 speak in class because I thought my classmates might laugh at me. I couldn't always make complete sentences, 5 . And I always feel 6 in English classes. But now I am enjoying 7 English. I have 8 that it doesn't matter if you don't understand every word. One of the secrets of becoming a good language 9 is to do lots of listening practice. I often watch English programs on TV and listen to English songs. I've also 10 the English club at school to improve my oral English. And I 11 the day's lesson before class, I try to understand the main ideas so that I 12 answer the teacher's questions in class. I also 13 lots of grammar notes in class. And 14 practice my writing, I keep a diary. Last but not least, I 15 trying and never give up. | ||||

sleep!"
These are people who have taken part in one of the recent experiments to test learn-while-you-sleep
methods, which are now being tried in several countries, and with several subjects, of which English is only
one.
Specialists say that this sleep-study method speeds language learning greatly. They say that the average
(平均) person can learn two or three times as much during sleep as in the same period during the day — and
this does not affect his rest in any way. A word of warning, however, sleep-teaching will only force your head
to learn what you have studied already while you are awake.
In one experiment, ten lessons were broadcast over the radio continually for two weeks. Each lesson
lasted twelve hours — from 8 p.m. to 8 a.m. . The first three hours of English grammar and vocabulary were
given with the student awake. At 11 p.m. a sleep song was broadcast to send the student to sleep and for the
next three hours the radio whispered the lesson again into his sleeping ears. At 2 a.m. a sharp noise was sent
over the radio to wake the sleeping student up for a few minutes to review the lesson. Then soft songs went
him back to rest again while the radio went on. At 5 o'clock his sleep ended and he had to go through the lesson
again for three hours before breakfast.

In ancient languages, the seven days of the week were named after the sun, the moon, and the five planets that ancient people knew about (luckily, they only knew about five planets then, or our weeks would be much longer). There is a good reason that in English “Sunday” has the word “sun” in it. Sunday seems to be everyone’s favorite day of the week. It makes sense that it’s named after everyone’s favorite thing in the sky! Do any other weekday names sound like astrological (占星的) words? How about “Monday” and “Moon”, or “Saturday” and “Saturn”?
If you learn French or Spanish, you will see even more planets in the names of the days of the week. These languages are rooted in Latin(拉丁文) and the Latin names match the planet names for all seven days.
English is a strange language. It is very confusing. The days of the week are a perfect example of this confusion. A few are from Latin, and a few are from German. “Tuesday” is named after a German God: Tiw (Tiw’s day). Friday is named after a German Goddess(女神): Freya. English words change spelling, meaning and roots that are based on wars and kings. That’s why English is so hard to learn! Learning the names of the week can be like a history lesson in itself!
