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(版本),see how you can do better and have another go. 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 stock by a word you don't know.

Practise improvising(即兴的)ways of getting your meaning across when speaking spontaneously(本能地),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 an important strategy(策略)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(最多的)use of all the clues(线索)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!

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

A. To improve his speaking. B. To record his own progress.

C. To speak better than his master. D. To compare himself with others.

答案：A　细节理解题。从Tip 1可知，录音的目的是为了通过对比而使自己的口语不断得到改进，B项则使其目的偏解为记载进步过程。C项的干扰性在于master可作"老师"解，但master version(原版磁带)不同于master's version(老师的录音版本)。D项中的others与himself相对，指的是"人"而非文中的"master version"。

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

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

答案：B　细节理解题。从最后一句可见答案。above all即意为"首要的是"。其他三个选项在文中均有涉及，但难以用most形容。

38．It is implied in the passage that __________ is helpful when you are learning English.
