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

  Speak,speak,speak!

  Practise speaking as often as yon 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 go.If yon 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 yon can persuade a friend or family member to study with yon,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

  Ptactise improvising(即兴的)ways of getting your meaning across when speaking spontaneously(本能地),even if yon don't know the exact words or phrases.Think of things yon might want to say whenever yon have spare time.A basic example is the rise 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 expression,hand movements,anything to get your meaning across.

  Language learning is also about intuition(直觉)

  Guesswork is an important strategy in learning a new language.When listening to recorded material,yon 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 yon 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 mach 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!

  Introductory Chemistry was taught at Duke University for many years by professor Bonk. One year, two guys took the class and did pretty well on all the quizzes and mid-terms. They each had a solid A. These two friends were so confident in going into the final that the weekend before finals week, despite the Chemistry final being on Monday, they decided to go to the University of Virginia to party with some friends.

  They had a great time there. However, with their hangovers(宿醉) and tiredness, they overslept all day Sunday and didn’t make it back to Duke until early Monday morning. Rather than taking the final then, they found professor Bonk after the final and explained to him how they missed the final. They told him they went up to the University of Virginia for the weekend and had planned to come back in time to study, but they had a flat tire on the way back and didn’t have a spare. So they were late getting back to campus.

  Bonk thought this over and agreed that they could take the final the following day. The two guys, happy and relieved, studied that night and went in the next day at the time that Bonk had told them. He placed them in separate rooms and handed each of them a test booklet. He told them to begin.

  They looked at the first problem which was something simple about solution(溶解). It was worth 5 points. “Cool,” they thought, “this is going to be an easy final”. They then turned the page. They were unprepared, however, for what they saw on it. The question contained only two words: (95 points) Which tire?
