Here are some of them.Before ReadingGlobal ReadingDetailed ReadingAfter ReadingSome Strategies for Learning English 1.Do not treat all new words in exactly the same way. Have you ever complained about your memory because you find it simply impossible to memor

35、ize all the new words you are learning? But, in fact, it is not your memory that is at fault. If you cram your head with too many new words at a time, some of them are bound to be crowded out. What you need to do is to deal withBefore ReadingGlobal ReadingDetailed ReadingAfter Readingnew words in di

36、fferent ways according to how frequently they occur in everyday use. While active words demand constant practice and useful words must be committed to memory, words that do not often occur in everyday situations require just a nodding acquaintance. You will find concentrating on active and useful wo

37、rds the most effective route to enlarging your vocabulary. Before ReadingGlobal ReadingDetailed ReadingAfter Reading2. Watch out for idiomatic ways of saying things. Have you ever wondered why we say, “I am interested in English”, but “I am good at French”? And have you ever asked yourself why nativ

38、e English speakers say, “learn the news or secret”, but “learn of someones success or arrival”? These are all examples of idiomatic usage. In learning English, you must pay attention not only to the meaning of a word, but also to the way native speakers use it in their daily lives.3. Listen to Engli

39、sh every day. Listening to English on a regular basis will not only improve your ear, but will also help you build your speaking skills. In addition to language tapes especially prepared for your course, you can also listen to English radio broadcasts, watch English TV, and see English movies. The f

40、irst time you listen to a taped conversation or passage in English, you may not be able to catch a great deal. Try to get its general meaning first and listen to it over and over again. You will find that with each repetition you will get something more. Before ReadingGlobal ReadingDetailed ReadingA

41、fter Reading4.Seize opportunities to speak. It is true that there are few situations at school where you have to communicate in English, but you can seek out opportunities to practice speaking the language. Talking with your classmates, for example, can be an easy and enjoyable way to get some pract

42、ice. Also try to find native speakers on your campus and feel free to talk with them. Perhaps theeasiest way to practice speaking is to rehearse aloud, since this can be done at any time, in any place, and without a partner. For instance, you can look at pictures or objects around you and try to des

43、cribe them in detail. You can also rehearse everyday situations. After you have made a purchase in a shop or finished a meal in a restaurant and paid the check, pretend that all this happened in an English-speaking country and try to act it out in English. Before ReadingGlobal ReadingDetailed Readin

44、gAfter Reading5. Read widely. It is important to read widely because in our learning environment, reading is the main and most reliable source of language input. When you choose reading materials, look for things that you find interesting, that you can understand without relying too much on a dictio

45、nary. A page a day is a good way to start. As you go on, you will find that you can do more pages a day and handle materials at a higher level of difficulty.Before ReadingGlobal ReadingDetailed ReadingAfter Reading6.Write regularly. Writing is a good way to practice what you already know. Apart from

46、 compositions assigned by your teacher, you may find your own reasons for writing. A pen pal provides good motivation; you will learn a lot by trying to communicate with someone who shares your interests, but comes from a different culture. Other ways to write regularly include keeping a diary, writ

47、ing a short story and summarizing the daily news. Language learning is a process of accumulation. It pays to absorb as much as you can from reading and listening and then try to put what you have learned into practice through speaking and writing. Learning English is by no means easy. It takes great
