To improve our
English, it is critical to do more reading,
writing, listening and speaking. Besides, learning
by
heart
as
many
well-written
essays
as
possible
is
also
very
important.
Without
an
enormous
store
of
good
English writing in your
head you cannot express yourself freely in
English. It is also helpful to summarize our
experience as we go along, for in so
doing, we can figure out which way of learning is
more effective and will
produce the
most desirable result. As long as we keep working
hard on it, we will in due course accomplish the
task of mastering English.
