some vocabulary words — although those are important activities not to be ignored.Acquiring (学到) a language is learning a skill, not a body of information.It’s as much like learning to swim or ride a bike as it is like learning about the Second World War.That is, you must not only understand the ideas and have information at hand, but also make your body accustomed to using that information in physical activity: In this case, the physical activity is speaking, listening, writing and reading.

You need, then, not only to learn and understand, but also to practice!

Here are a few suggestions on effective practice/study techniques.

1.Make your mouth or hand do what your mind is learning.Study out loud.Do go to the lab and work on the tapes.Study with a friend, and, thus, participate in speaking and listening.Try to write sentences or a short paragraph using the skills you have practiced with your own lips.

2.Study day-by-day.You cannot get by in a foreign language course by cramming (临时抱佛脚) at the last minute.You may be able to “learn” vocabulary items that way, but you cannot teach your mouth to use them in sentences.

3.Sometimes go back and review “old”topics and vocabulary.Language learning is cumulative (累积的).You learn new skills on the basis of old ones.The more you “recycle”familiar information and skills, the better you will be able to take in new ones.

4.Don’t be afraid to make mistakes.Self-consciousness (害羞) can be a strong barrier to learning a language.Perhaps part of the reason small children readily learn languages is that they are not afraid of making mistakes.

A.memorizing vocabulary words is necessary in language learning

D.one may not find enough time to use at the last minute
