People often ask me for suggestions about how to learn English. As for it, everyone is different. Ill share some of my experience. I once took a school year English course in Wuhan University, but I mostly learned English on my own.

One thing I can tell you is that once youve started learning, you should try to think in English as much as you can. If you see something when youre riding your bike or walking down the street, just think about “How would I say them in English?” At first, it might be with simple words or phrases, but later you should think about longer phrases and sentences. Now Im in America, and for most of the time, I would think in English and speak it directly. Its amazing how much this helps.

For several years after I started learning, I was often afraid of talking with others in English because I didnt want to make mistakes. Finally I got it over. And while traveling in America, Id try to hang out with friends who couldnt speak Chinese, so that Id have no choice but to speak English. And I also decided that if I said something stupid and other people laughed at me, then so be it. After that, my English started improving much more quickly.

Besides, it may be a good idea to ask your American friends to look at the way youre writing, and give you some suggestions for improvement.

2.What is a good way to improve English according to the writer?

D. Learning English grammar.

3.The underlined phrase “got it over” in Paragraph 3 probably means “______”.

A. stuck to it

B. depended on it

C. understood it well

D. dealt with it successfully

4.Where did the writer improve his English quickly?

A. In China. B. In the US.

C. In the university. D. In the middle school.

How can you remember a song from your childhood to this day? Why do your teachers use songs to teach you English? It seems there is a scientific reason for this.

Researchers are now studying the relationship between music and remembering a foreign language. They find that remembering words in a song is the best way to remember even the most difficult language.

“Singing could be a new way of learning a foreign language. The brain likes to remember things when they are used in a catchy and meaningful way,” said Dr Karen Ludke. The findings may help those who have difficulty learning foreign languages. On his blog, Dr Ludke writes, “A listen-and-repeat singing method can support foreign language learning, and open the door for future research in this area.”

Many language teachers know the value of using music and singing. Hua Zhuying, a teacher at a Chinese language school in Washington DC depends heavily on songs in teaching Chinese. She says, “I use music all the time to teach children Chinese. For little kids usually we use English songs but teach them the Chinese lyrics. So its easy for them to start because they know the music. Not only does it work, but it is fun for the kids.” “Sometimes, I think if I were taught English that way, maybe I would speak much better English than now,” Hua Zhuying adds.

Our brain likes music, especially for remembering. So, if youre still struggling in learning a language, why not try singing it out?

1.A study shows that the best way to learn a foreign language is to ______.

A. read and write more

B. remember words in a song

C. copy the words many times

D. listen to the teacher carefully

2.What does the underlined word “catchy” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

A. Difficult. B. Sweet.

C. Boring. D. Noisy.

3.How can you learn a foreign language according to Dr Ludke?

A. By listening and singing in it repeatedly.

B. By listening to famous music.

C. By writing songs in it.

D. By copying the words.

4.What is Hua Zhuying?

A. An English teacher.

B. A Chinese teacher.

C. An English student.

D. A musician.

5.What is the passage mainly about?

A. A problem in language learning.

B. The importance of language.

C. A way to learn languages.

D. The value of music.
