10. 例文赏析
Mr. Brown,
Recently I have had a discussion about the ways to learn English better with Allen, a student from Britain. In his opinion, the best ways are by reading English newspapers and talking with friends. He also believes that sometimes seeing English films isn’t a bad way.

11. I quite agree with him. However, I think, we can go surfing online, where we can find a lot of information in English to read. Besides, we can look for a pen pal from an English-speaking country so that we can get to know something about his or her country. Finally, learning English grammar well is also a great help.

Dear Li Lei,
I know it isn’t easy to learn English well, but I have some ideas that may help. You said you couldn’t understand people who talked fast. Well, you can try to listen for the most important words, not every word. You can also do lots of listening practice. I think it’s one of the secrets of becoming a good language learner. Another important thing that I think is English

14. grammar. In order to learn it well, you have to take a lot of grammar notes in every class. You can write English sentences using the grammar you are learning. You can also read more English books. Reading is as important as listening for us to learn English well. If you do so, I believe that you can learn English very well later on.
Yours,
Meimei
