Here are a few tips we’ve put together to help you learn English well.

Speak, speak, speak!

Practise speaking as often as you can—even speaking to yourself is good practice. Try recording yourself whenever you can. Compare your pronunciation with the master version, see how you can do better and have another try. If you do this several times, you will find that each version is better than the last.

Why not learn with someone else?

It helps if you can learn with someone else. If you can persuade a friend or family member to study with you, it will make you keep working. Agree times to meet and set goals for the week, and test each other regularly.

Don’t get stuck by a word you don’t know

Practise improvising (即兴的) ways of getting your meaning across while speaking spontaneously (本能), even if you don’t know the exact words or phrases. Think of things you might want to say whenever you have spare time. A basic example is the use of tenses. If you don’t know the past tense but want to talk about yesterday, use the verb in the present tense and use the word for “yesterday”. Use facial expressions, hand movements, anything to get your meaning across.

Language learning is also about intuition (直觉)

Guesswork is important in learning a new language. When listening to recorded material, you aren’t expected to understand everything first time round. If you play the same piece several times, you will most probably understand something new each time. Learn to make maximum use of all the clues you can pick up. For example, what do the speakers sound like? Happy? Angry? Calm? Etc.

Build up your vocabulary

A wide vocabulary is the key to successful language learning but don’t try to learn too much at once. It’s best to study frequently, for short periods of time. Take a maximum of six or seven items of vocabulary and learn them. Put them into sentences to fix them in your mind, then come back to them later. Much of the vocabulary in the course is presented by topic.

And above all, have fun!

1. Why should one have himself recorded when practicing speaking?

A. To encourage others to start.

B. To record his own progress.

C. To improve his speaking.

D. To compare himself with others.

2. Which of the following is the most important in learning English?

A. Speaking.      B. Pleasure.      C. Intuition.     D. Vocabulary.

3. It is important in Tip 3 that        is helpful when you are learning English.

A. body language  B. a good memory  C. a good friend  D. a proper dictionary

4. Which of the following seems NOT to be true in learning a language?

A. Practice makes perfect.           B. A good beginning is half done.

C. Rome is not built in a day.         D. Don’t run before you can walk.

5.The underlined word “maximum” in Paragraph 5 might mean ________________.

A. 小心的             B. 大胆的         C. 最小量的                 D. 最大量的

How to be a good roommate

Roommate horror stories are pretty popular topics of conversation at school. Follow a few simple tips to ensure you’re not the awful roommate everyone’s talking about.

Respect each other

First and foremost, you need to respect your roommate.

1.If your roommate is sleeping, keep the noise and light levels down. If your roommate is studying, don’t have loud conversations in the same room. If in doubt, ask yourself whether you would be annoyed if your roommate didn’t do the above things for you.

Keep it clean. 2.Hair in the shower or bathrooms littered with magazines or dirty clothes. Respect means keeping your side of the room clean. And hopefully, if your roommate sees you keeping your side clean, they’ll be more likely to keep theirs clean.

Keep your hands off their stuff. 3.If you really need to borrow something of theirs, always ask before you do. If they say no, don’t get angry. Some people just don’t like other people using their stuff.

Set basic rules

You and your roommate should establish some basic rules. For instance, I really don’t like it when people have phone conversations in the room while I am studying. 4.I’d rather be writing my paper than listening to you tell your best friend about your weekend. So discuss that with your roommate. Make a compromise, but the tie should go to the person studying. Another example is to discuss cleaning duties. Dividing cleaning duties will make your room cleaner and it will help ease roommate tensions. 5.

A. Be considerate.

B. Talk on the phone.

C. Don’t use your roommate’s items without asking.

D. I’m not good at doing several things at the same time.

E.　 I have heard many horror stories about dirty roommates.

F. Taking out the trash and tidying the room are just a few things to consider.

G. It is amazing how people don’t understand what it means to be considerate.

We should feel grateful in our heart when we accept anything others sacrifice for us. However, we often unconsciously do the opposite, which may not be regarded as returning kindness with ingratitude, but have the equal power to harm each other. In particular, the closer the relationship is, the more determined we are.

Jennifer, my friend Randy's mother, is already over 70, poor eyesight and weak legs. But due to her character, she chose to live alone in the suburbs. No matter how busily Randy works, he would go there to visit her once or twice every week.

That day as soon as he parked his car, Randy smelt the delicious smell of meat coming from her mother's house. His mother said, “Your birthday is coming next week, so I'm preparing pork trotters (猪蹄) for you!” Seeing the steaming delicious trotters, he couldn’t help complaining, “I don't like these things at all, so fatty.”

On his way back, he called me, saying that he felt sorry. In fact, he longed to thank his mother and eat up that bowl of trotters. But he felt sorry that it took her too much time and energy. If he didn’t stop her strictly, he was afraid the same thing would continue. He would rather not eat trotters any more than have his mother overwork. I understand how he felt exactly. Each of us has done like that. Because of feeling sorry for others' sacrifice, we purposely harden our heart against accepting others' favor and even criticize them severely in order to frighten their goodness away and make them never do that again.

This method may work, but it will hurt each other's feelings. It's not wrong logically, but we always neglect another sound deep in our heart: because we're afraid we can't repay them, we're unwilling to shoulder others' goodness. So we reduce its value and refuse it severely. But to destroy others' goodness is also to deny you.

1.Randy refuse to eat the pork trotters his mother cooked because ____.

A. he disliked them at all

B. they were really very fatty.

C. they weren’t his favorite taste

D. he didn’t want her to overwork.

2.Randy telephoned the author to _____.

A. express his apology to his mother

B. complain about his mother

C. apologize for his rudeness

D. ask for a bowl of trotters.

3.According to the author, we sometimes say “no” to others' favor so that ______.

A. they can be frightened away

B. they won't continue doing that

C. we needn’t repay them later

D. we won't feel sorry for their sacrifice

4.In the last paragraph, the author implies that we should ____.

A. refuse others' favor immediately

B. deal with others' favor wisely

C. repay others' goodness actively

D. shoulder others' goodness completely.
