三、阅读单选
As a language learner, you are not alone. About 1.2 billion people worldwide are learning a foreign language. _______ We talked to hundreds of successful language learners. They shared with us some of their habits (习惯).
One key to long-term success is “always working for the goal (目标)”. Most successful language learners make sure to spend a few minutes practicing every day. Some learners practice their language only in class. In the long run, they can be much slower than those who practice every day. They are also more likely to “drop out”.
The second habit of successful language learners is that they don’t “binge study”. Instead, they study through a number of short-time learnings in a long period of time. Some learners only study before the test. Although they spend a long time, it doesn’t go well.
Some language learners always want to learn as much new material (材料) as they can. But it turns out that one forgets what he or she has learned little by little over time. Let’s be honest: Do you still remember all the English words and expressions you learned last year Successful language learners go over the old material regularly (定期地). Going over in time turns your short-term memory (记忆) into long-term memory.
Are you having a hard time improving your English Then you may try to develop these good habits. Don’t worry if it takes time. Learning a second language is a long process (过程)—it should take time!

A.And what’s your dream
B.So, learning English is very popular.
