It's known that Chinese students pay much attention to reading and writing when they learn English.However,listening and speaking also play an important role in English learning. Recently,we have a survey about English speaking skills in No.12 Middle School. The number of the total students is about 2,000. Here are the results.
With the development of science and technology,many students will be more and more interested in man-machine conversation on the electronic products. And it is really very convenient for the students to practice anywhere. While the trouble is that spending too much time on the screen is bad for the eyes.
In addition,though students can take some after-school English classes,they feel really tired. In order to make their parents happy,they have to give up some free time.

At my primary school,I was one of the smartest kids there. I never studied,but always got perfect scores. I thought I was born clever. At least I believed so. I was also a prodigy in music according to myself. I could sing better than almost everyone else in my school. I was pretty sure that once I got to the sixth grade,everyone would be surprised by me. But actually,they weren't.
When I arrived at my new class,I couldn't wait to show everyone what I could do. However,there was always someone else who could do them better. My grades began to suffer. More talented(有天资的)girls often sang solos(独唱). I believed I wasn't smart. I believed I wasn't talented. I believed I was a failure.
Over the next two years,I had to work very hard. Every prize for the singing competition was given to me for hard work and effort. Grades were still very low but improving little by little. I worked really hard. However,I was never the best at everything.
I haven't realized until recently that I really don't have to be the best at everything. I was too hard on myself. In fact,when I did badly in a test,my classmates never laughed at me.
No one is perfect. There will probably always be someone better than me at something. Anyway,there are about seven billion people in this world. I will never be the number one at everything,and that's really okay.

At the age of seven,I started to go to an English school without knowing a single English word. I could only speak Spanish and English was very strange to me. I couldn't talk with other kids. When the teachers spoke in class,I was puzzled. I couldn't understand what they said at all. I was very lonely at that time,and sometimes I even felt like crying.
Soon I started to learn English,though it was very hard for me. By the end of the first year,I could read,speak and even write some simple sentences in English. The next year,I met a boy,Frank. It was his first year at this school and he didn't know lots of English,either. I began to practice English with him. At first,it wasn't easy for us,but gradually we got used to communicating with each other in English. We kept learning more each year and now we're both good English speakers.
This year,I'm in Grade Nine and I do well in all my subjects. Do you want to know the secret of learning languages well The key is that I never give up. I'm learning Japanese now. Although it's a little difficult,I have been holding on to it. Now I can communicate with people in simple Japanese. I believe I can learn Japanese better soon.

These days,more and more people enjoy sending and receiving messages on the phone. It can help them to get the latest news and communicate with friends. But I think I should read more books besides the textbooks, the more, the better.51. Of course, it can also help me to get good grades at school.
Different people have different reading habits. As for me,the most important thing is to make the purpose of reading clear.52. Most people read for two main reasons — pleasure or knowledge.
Clearing about the reading purpose can not only help me choose the book I really need to read,but also remind me why reading the book is important to me,so I will keep reading and complete the book faster.
53. In my opinion, enjoying what I read is the key. Whenever I realize that I am not enjoying the book I am reading,I often give it up. I am fond of the books which can interest me in some ways.
Setting a reading goal is also what I usually do. It is interesting that I always read the books borrowed from libraries faster than those I bought.54. This inspires me to set a reading goal. It helps me work out how much reading I need to do in a week or even a day. Before I read each book,I often ask myself what time I need to complete the book by.
All these habits help me keep reading. And I have found I am interested in different kinds of books while reading.55. Reading brings me lots of fun and happiness in my life. Why not be a book lover now

Everyone is born with the ability to learn. But whether or not you can do this well depends on your learning habits. Research shows that successful learners have some good habits in common.
Creating an interest in what they learn
Studies show that if you are interested in something,your brain is more active and it is also easier for you to pay attention to it for a long time. Good learners often connect what they need to learn with something they are interested in. For example,if they need to learn English and they like music or sports,they can listen to English songs or watch sports programs in English. This way they will not get bored.
Practicing and learning from mistakes
Good learners think about what they are good at and what they need to practice more. Remember,“use it or lose it!”Even if you learn something well,you will forget it unless you use it. Practice makes perfect. Good learners are also not afraid of making mistakes. Alexander Graham Bell did not invent the telephone overnight. He succeeded by trying many times and learning from his mistakes.
Developing their study skills
It is not enough to just study hard. You have to know how to study. Good learners find out the best ways to learn well. For example,they may take notes by writing down key words or by drawing mind maps. Good learners also look for ways to review what they have learned. They may do this by reading their notes every day or by explaining the information to another student.
Asking questions
Good learners often ask questions during or after class. They even ask each other and try to find out the answers. Knowledge comes from questioning.
The better your learning habits are,the more successful learners you will be.
