“How can I learn English well?” This is a question many students ask. In my opinion, the most effective way is to learn lessons by heart. If you can recite the text and write it out, you’ve learned it fairly well. And if you can tell, in your own words, what the lesson says you’re a very successful learner indeed. Your English will be quite perfect.

This is a difficult task. However, if you try to learn by heart only part of each lesson, you’ll find it not half so hard as you might have thought.

Learning this way, you will make rapid progress. Of course, writing is also necessary. It helps you a lot on our way to success in English.

Equally important is to feel the language. You should be able to laugh at jokes and be shocked at bad news. When using English, try to forget your mother tongue. Instead of helping you, your own language gets in your way. So, never try to see English through translation.

Tom saw an advertisement in a newspaper for a beautiful bicycle. It cost 55 pounds. So he went to the shop and asked to see one of the wonderful bicycles.
The owner of the shop was harpy to show one to Tom. Tom examined(检查)it carefully, and turned to the owner and said, "There isn’t a lamp on this bicycle. hut there was one on the bicycle in your advertisement."
"Yes, Sir, "answered the man." But the lamp isn’t included(包含)in the price of bicycle."
"Not included in the price of bicycle?" Tom said angrily. "But that’s not honest. If the lamp is in the advertisement, it should be included in the price.”“Well, Sir,” answered the shop owner coldly. "There is also a girl on the bicycle in the advertisement. but we cannot give you a girl with the bicycle, either."
