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.
