How can you help yourself learn a new language, such as English? There are several ways to make learning English easier and more interesting.

The first step is to believe that you can learn well. If you believe that you can learn well, you will learn well. Be patient. You don’t have to understand everything all at once. It is usual to make mistakes when you learn something new. We can learn from our mistakes.

The second step is to practice your English. For example, practice speaking or making notes every day. You will be good at speaking or writing in English. After several weeks, you will see that your English is better. And you must practice speaking English when you have any time. You can practice with your classmates outside class.

The third step is to keep a diary of your language learning. After each class, think about what you did. Did you answer a question correctly? Did you understand something the teacher talked about?

You must have confidence about learning English and believe that you can do it. It’s important to practice every day.

Is learning a foreign language ever easy? Yes. If you are five and move to another country, you will quickly pick up the language. But what about for the rest of us who are no longer five, and need to be polite when traveling for business or for pleasure? I think that answer is also yes. Language learning can be easy if you don’t want or need to learn too much.

The key to successful language learning in my mind is not to set the goal too high. It is rather like running. Even if you run twice a week, you don’t necessarily want to be able to run a marathon (马拉松). You might just want to keep a level of fitness. I think the same can be true for language learning.

Let’s get back to the goal. If you decide to learn ten words in a foreign language before visiting the country, you know that you will be sure to do this. However, if you decide to talk to people with great fluency (流利), unless you are quite a talented person, you will probably fail and give up in half-way.

It is also far easier to start learning a foreign language than to finish. In other words, the better you are, the slower it can be to improve, because you will not be able to move further because of grammar, making sentences, learning less common words, etc. If you are only trying to learn a few foreign words and sentences, you will enjoy faster progress, have more fun, and won’t have to spend too much time.

The idea of learning only a few hundred words in a language, and then stopping, isn’t the usual way to language learning, but it can be a very meaningful and enjoyable activity.

1.In the writer’s opinion, it is easy for adults to learn English if _______.

A．they are especially talented people

B．they don’t want or need to learn too much

C．they have to spend a lot of time on it

D．they have a chance to go abroad

2.The writer believes that if you want to be good at a foreign language, you will probably _______.

A．forget your own goals

B．become a talented language learner

C．get tired of learning it

D．reach your learning goal

3.The best title of this passage would be _______.

A．Easy Language Learning                   B．Hard Language Learning

C．Fluency in a Foreign Language              D．A way of Language Learning

As we have known, learning strategies are a common topic of language learning. But what are learning strategies? They are the methods that learners choose to learn. Here are several examples of language learning strategies.

Guess a new word’s meaning in the sentence. This is a basic language skill for students. There is an example: When you first meet the new English word “insist”, you can guess its meaning in the sentence, “His mother didn’t allow him to go with us, but he insisted on coming with us.”

Cooperate with partners. Work with other language learners to improve language skills. When you need to practice spoken English and try to have a real communication, you’d better find a partner to work in group.

Know about background knowledge before reading. Try to find more information about the passage and its writer. It is useful for us to understand the main idea, writing purpose and also the feelings of the writer.

Make a note of what you should improve. It is more important to know where you are but not what you know. In this way, you can find what you need to improve and further find a way to improve your study. This is also the most important ability for self-study.

It’s important for learners to know about different strategies. In fact, more able learners use different kinds of learning strategies.
