Question

English is very important in the modern world. Many people want to learn it well. Here are some things that I want to say about learning it.

To learn English well, you need two things---passionand good learning methods(方法). Passion is the more important one. Why? Because passion makes you want to learn English. Learning methods only tell you how to do it better and faster.

If you love learning English, you will do it regularly(有规律地) and spend more time on it. It will also be easy for you to remember new words and grammar rules. __________ For example, some people like history and know a lot about World WarⅡ. If you ask a person who doesn’t like history to memorize all the facts, he probably can’t do it.

When you want to learn English, you can do the following things:

First, imagine(想象) that you can talk to native(本土的) speakers just as you talk in your mother language. Imagine yourself to be a manager(经理) in a foreign company(公司). Imagine you are living in an English-speaking country.

Second, use English as much as possible. This is very important. The more you use English, the better you will learn it. English is very popular, so you can use it everywhere. You can watch American cartoons, sing English songs, and read interesting books written in English as well.
