Directions: Based on the given key words and phrases, you are required to state your opinions about Key words: speech, groundwork, exercise, write, reading
Reference:
How to Learn a Foreign Language Well?
In order to know a foreign language well, four things are necessary. First, we should pay attention to speech, which is the groundwork of reading and writing. So it is much better to try to talk, even though you do make mistakes.
Second, we have to do a lot of exercises. A good exercise is to write – keep a diary, write notes, letters or article; then if you can, get someone to go through what you have written and tell you where it is wrong. Through correcting the mistakes you make, you can do better in learning a language.
Third, we need to do a lot of reading. The important thing is to choose something to read that is not too difficult for you and that really interests you. When you are reading in this way, don’t look up words in the dictionary if you can guess their meanings or if they are not of any immediate importance in the sentence. You can do that some other time.
Fourth, we must learn by using the language. “Learning through use” is a good piece of advice for those who are studying a new language. Practice is very important. It is the only way for students to use a foreign language. Through reaped use you can help yourself improve your language ability.
