A. 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.

B. 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.

C . Don’t get a shock 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 “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 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 use of all the clues you can pick up. For example, what do the speakers sound like? happy, angry, calm etc.

E. 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!

Yang Yang was facing a dilemma: Should he attend Tsinghua University in Beijing or Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST)?

As a top student in this year's college entrance examination, the 18-year-old from Guangdong received admission notices from both universities. He had been dreaming of studying at Tsinghua since childhood; HKUST, on the other hand, has merely 15 years of history.

  After several sleepless nights, he chose to go to Hong Kong, which is a “very painful” choice. In the end, “I admire the history and learning environment at Tsinghua, but I want to experience a more Westernized teaching and learning system in Hong Kong,” he said with a timid smile.

  But Li Xiaolu, a female student who attended HKUST’s interview, said even if she was granted a full scholarship she would not go to Hong Kong.

  “I don't fit in there,” she said, adding that she was quite introverted and felt mainland universities are better for basic science studies.

  She refuted some scholars' claims that Beijing University and Tsinghua have degenerated into second-rate schools. “They are always the dream for millions of Chinese high school graduates,” she said.
