How do you learn best?
This week we asked students at New Star High School
about the best ways to learn more English. Many said they
learnt by using English. Some students had more specific
suggestions. Lillian Li, for example, said the best way to
learn new words was by reading English magazines. She
said that memorizing the words of pop songs also helped a
little. When we asked about studying grammar, she said, “I
never study grammar. It’s too boring.”
specific adj. 明确的;详细而精确的
memorize(memorizing) v. 记忆;背诵
grammar n.语法;语法规则
Wei Ming feels differently. He’s been learning English
for six years and really loves it. He thinks studying
grammar is a great way to learn a language. He also thinks
that watching English movies isn’t a bad way because he
can watch the actors say the words. Sometimes, however,
he finds watching movies frustrating because the people
speak too quickly.
differently adv.不同地;有区别地
frustrate v.使失望;使沮丧;使厌烦
frustrating adj.令人沮丧的;令人失望的
quickly adv.快地;迅速地
Liu Chang said that joining the English club at school
was the best way to improve her English. Students get lots
of practice and they also have fun. She added that having
conversations with friends was not helpful at all. “We get
excited about something and then end up speaking in
Chinese,” she said.
add v.又说;继续说
not at all 根本(不);全然(不)
excited adj.激动的;兴奋的
get excited about
end up结束;告终
