English is very important in the modern world. Many people want to learn it well. Here are some things that I want to say about learning it.

To learn English well, you need two things－passion and good learning methods (方法). Passion is the more important one. Why? Because passion makes you want to learn English. Learning methods only tell you how to learn it better and faster.

If you love learning English, you will learn it regularly (有規(guī)律地) and spend much time on it. It will also be easy for you to remember new words and grammar rules. ________ For example, some people like history and know a lot about World War II. If you ask a person who doesn’t like history to memorize all the facts, he probably can’t do it.

When you don’t want to learn English, you can do the following things.

First, imagine that you can talk to native speakers just as you talk in your mother language. Imagine yourself to be a manager in a foreign company. Imagine you’re living in an English-speaking country.

Second, use English as much as possible. This is very important. The more you use English, the better you’ll learn it. English is very popular, so you can use it everywhere. You can watch American cartoons, write English diaries, and read interesting books written in English.

【小題1】The underlined word “passion” means “______” in Chinese.

    Have you ever thought of such questions as ‘‘Why do I have to study math?” or “I am not interested in history at all．My dream is to be an engineer．Should I give history up?”

    Maybe you are right．After you leave school，it's not necessary for you to understand everything．But please remember that at school，besides getting knowledge，you should pay attention to some other important things．

    First，try to find what you are most interested in．At school，you study many subjects．Try to find what you like and what you don't like。This may be helpful to you in the future．

    Second，maybe you don't like math and you want to drop it．But the logical thinking ability（邏輯思維能力）from math can help you solve some problems, At school，you should practice your brain by thinking．

    Third，you should believe in yourself．Maybe you learn French at school，but you don't need to speak French at all．But learning French can prove（證明）that you have the ability of learning languages。Suppose you go to Germany one day and find a job there．Then you call tell yourself, “I can do my job well．At school I learned French well．a(chǎn)nd now I must be able to learn German．”But if you have no confidence，what will happen?

    Try to challenge yourself as often as possible。I think many of us like playing computer games．When we fail in a game，we always want to try it again，why? Because it is hard for ns to get the highest mark．If we want to challenge ourselves，we must face more difficult things and make greater progress．

Thank for your message. Yes, I’m having a great time   1  my exchange in France .It’s even better than I thought it   2  . I was a bit 3   before I arrived here, but there was no reason to be. My host family is really nice. They go out of their way to make me 4  at home. And you 5  believe how quickly my French has improved! I’m very comfortable 6   French now 7   I still make lots of mistakes, it doesn’t bother me like it used to. My biggest challenge is learning 8   at the dinner table.  9   you can imagine, things are really 10   the way they are at home. For example, you’re not supposed to put your bread on your plate. You’re supposed to put it on the table! I thought that was pretty strange at first, but now I 11   it .You’re not supposed to eat anything with your hands 12   bread, not even fruit! (You have to cut it up and eat it with a fork.) 13  thing is that it is very rude to say you’re full. If you don’t want 14   food, you should just say, “It was delicious.” Also, it’s rude to put your hands in your lap. You should always keep your hands, but not your elbows, on the table. I find 15  difficult to remember everything, but I’m gradually getting used to things, and don’t find them so strange any more. I’ll write soon and tell you more about life in France. Hope you’re having a good school year.
