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.
