How do you learn best?
This week we asked students at New Star High School about the best ways to learn more English. Many said they learnt by using English. Some students had more specific suggestions. Lillian Li, for example, she
said the best way to learn new words was by reading English magazines. She said that memorizing the words of pop songs also helped a little. When we asked about studying grammar she said, “I never study grammar. It's too boring.”
Wei Ming feels differently. He's been learning English for six years and really loves it. He thinks sudying grammar is a great way to learn a language. He also thinks that watching English movies isn't a bad way because he can watch the actors say the words. Sometimes, however, he finds watching movies frustrating because the people speak too quickly.
Lin Chang said that joining the English club at school was the best way to improve her English. Students get lots of practice and they also have fun. She added that having conversations with friends was not helpful at all. "We get excited about something and then end up speaking in Chinese,” she said.

SectionB:
How I learned to learn English
Last year my English class was difficult for me. First of all, it wasn't easy for me to understand the teacher when she talked to the class. To begin with, she spoke too quickly, and I couldn't understand every word.(写出同义句). Later on, (I realized that it doesn't matter if you don’t understand every word.为什么用现在时?) Also I was afraid to speak in class, because I thought my classmates might laugh at me. I couldn't always make complete sentences, either. Then I started to watch English-language TV. It helped a lot. I think that doing lots of listening practice is one of the secrets of becoming a good language learner. Another thing that I found very difficult was English grammar. So I decided to take lots of grammar notes in every class. Then I started to write my own original sentences using the grammar(that) I was learning. It’s amazing how much this helped. Now I am enjoying learning English and I got an A this term. My teacher is very impressed.
