How to Improve Your English

Define your learning objectives early: what do you want to learn and why? Make learning a habit. 1. It is much better to study (or read, or listen to English news, and so on) for 10 minutes each day than to study for 2 hours once a week.

Choose your materials well. You will need reading, grammar, writing, speaking and listening materials—beginners can use a basic­level English guide, and then move on to an advanced­level English guide. 2. It will make learning more enjoyable—thus more effective.

Vary your learning routine. It is best to do different things each day to help keep the various relationships between each area active. 3.

4. Learning English together can be very encouraging. You can find friends to speak English on the Internet.

Relate grammar to practical usage. Grammar by itself does not help you use the language. You should practice what you are learning by employing it actively.

Move your mouth! Understanding something doesn't mean that the muscles of your mouth can produce the sounds. 5. It may seem strange, but it is very effective.

Be patient with yourself. Remember that learning is a process—speaking a language well takes time. It is not a computer that is either on or off!

A. The Internet is the most exciting, unlimited English resource.

B. Try to learn something every day.

C. Practice speaking what you are learning aloud.

D. In other words, don't just study grammar.

E. Find your own interests.

F. Choose articles that relate to what you are fond of.

G. Find friends to study and speak with.

Reading is an important part of learning English. One of the best tips on how to improve your reading skills is to think about how you read in your own language. Start by thinking about how you read different documents. How do you read newspaper? 1. How do you read train schedules?

Scanning

Use scanning on train or airplane schedules, meeting plans, and the “What’s on TV” section of your newspaper etc. in order to find the specific details you require. If your see words or phrases that you don’t understand, don’t worry when scanning.

Extensive reading

Extensive reading is used to obtain(获得) a general understanding of a subject and includes reading longer texts for pleasure, as well as business books. Use extensive reading skills to improve your general knowledge of business procedures. 4.

Intensive reading

Intensive reading is used on shorter texts in order to extract(提取) specific information. 5. Use intensive reading skills to grasp the details of a specific details of a specific situation, like reading a bookkeeping report, an insurance claim or a contract(合约). In this case, it is important that you understand each word, number or fact.

How do you improve your spelling?1.Just as we learn spoken language by hearing lots of people speaking, we learn written language, including spelling, by reading what a lot of people write. Spelling is not about how a word sound, it’s about how it looks on the page, which means you have to look at a lot of words on the page to learn the correct spelling about it.

Make a list of your commonly misspelled words.2.When you get a chance, look it up and put the correct spelling next to it.

3. If you look it up more than once, add it to your personal list.

Write! Write! Write! 4.When you look it up how to spell a word, write it down several times in a row and do it again a day or two later. 5.Write a blog, a journal, e-mails, a novel, anything that will keep you using words and pay special attention as you write to the words that come up wrong.

A. There is no substitute(代替) for reading a lot.

B. Put a mark next to every word you look up in the dictionary.

C. Those of us who spell well have a hard time explaining it, too.

D. Let others read your writings, and ask them to circle misspelled words.

E. You’re trying to build up the motor memory of writing it correctly spelled.

F. The only way to really learn a word is to use it, and that counts for spelling as much as for learning its meaning.

G. When you catch yourself spelling the same word wrong over and over, write it down somewhere.

Here are a number of English learning tips to help you improve your English. Choose a few of them to get started today!

Ask yourself weekly: What do I want to learn this week?

Asking yourself this question every week will help you stop and think for a moment about what is most important to you. It is easy to focus only on the current unit, grammar exercise, etc. If you take a moment to stop to make a careful plan for each week, you will notice the progress you are making and, in turn, become more inspired by how quickly you are learning English! You will be surprised at how this feeling of success will motivate you to learn even more English.

Quickly review important new information shortly before going to bed.

Research has shown that our brains process information that is fresh in our brains while we sleep. By shortly (this means very quickly -- just a glance at what you are working on at the moment) going over some exercise, reading, etc. before you go to sleep, your brain will work away on this information while you sleep!

While doing exercises and alone at home or in your room, speak English aloud.

Connect the muscles（肌肉）of your face to the information in your head. Just as understanding the basics of tennis does not make you a great tennis player, understanding grammar rules does not mean you can automatically speak English well. You need to practice the act of speaking often. Speaking by yourself at home and reading the exercises you are doing will help connect your brain to your facial muscles and improve pronunciation and make your knowledge active.

Do five to ten minutes of listening at least four times a week.

In the past, I decided I needed to get fit and went jogging -- usually three or four miles. Well, after not having done anything for many months, those three or four miles really hurt! Needless to say, I did not go jogging for another few months!

Learning to understand spoken English well is very similar. If you decide that you are going to work hard and listen for two hours, chances are that you will not do extra listening exercises any time soon. If, on the other hand, you start off slowly and listen on a regular basis (five to ten minutes at least four times a week), it will be easier to develop the habit of listening to English.

Look for situations in which you must speak, read, and listen to English.

This is probably the most important tip. Learning English in a classroom is important, but putting your English knowledge into practice in real situations will improve your fluency in speaking English. If you do not know of any “real life” situation, create new ones for yourself by using the Internet to listen to news, write English responses in forums, exchange emails in English with email pals, etc.

Why should you learn Sign Language? Do you want to improve your communication with a family member or friend who is deaf? Do you want to be able to communicate with deaf people in general? Would you like to advance in your career by being able to communicate in ASL? Do you want to be a Sign Language interpreter?

Sign language is not just a random (随意的) collection of gestures but a full-blown (完全成熟的) language in its own right, complete with its own grammatical rules. Each country or region has its own sign language, as different from each other as English is from Spanish. Each version of sign language is somewhat linked to the spoken language in its region. For example, American sign language does share similarities with English, even though it is its own language.

The advantages of knowing sign language in addition to a spoken language are many. Communication becomes possible on many levels with the deaf community, with other people either hearing or not in any of the above situations, as well as many more.

While other languages take years to learn, American Sign Language can be taught in a much shorter time period. It is one of the easiest languages to learn because most of the signs were developed to mimic the actual word or phrase it is representing. Even the alphabet signs look like the letters of the English alphabet.

American Sign Language, or ASL, is the third most used language in the United States. Used by the deaf community, interpreters, and friends and family of the deaf. There are a lot of sites on the internet that not only shows you the sign with video, but will help you practice reading signs as well.

Teaching even hearing babies sign language seems to be the fashion in recent years and for good reason. Communicating in sign language is fun and natural as babies naturally use body gestures in early communication. Teaching baby sign language actually appears to enhance the learning of verbal skills and brain development of the children involved.

1.Which two regions share similarities in their sign language?

A. Spain and Britain.

B. Mexico and USA.

C. Australia and Canada.

D. Japan and Korea.

2.Sign language ________.
