Questions and answers
Send your questions to Diana, the Language Doctor.
征求意见
watching English films and listening to English songs, but I don’t understand very much. What
can I do ”
Watching films and listening to songs are great ways to learn English! Watch and listen several times, and guess the meaning of the new words. Each time you will learn something new. I also advise you to talk about the films or
songs with your friends.
advise sb. to do sth.建议某人做某事
The second question is about speaking. Wang Fan from Jilin wrote, “Our school has a teacher from the US. I am shy and I am afraid to speak to her. What should I do ”
You can say, “Hello! How are you ” “ Do you like China ” These are good ways to start a conversation. And before you begin, you should smile at her! Remember this: Do not be shy. Just try.
be afraid to do sth.害怕做某事
The third question is about vocabulary. Zhang Lei from Anhui wrote, “ I write down new words, but I forget them quickly. How can I remember them
Do not worry. It is natural to forget new words! I suggest you write four or five words a day on pieces of paper and place them in your room. Read the words when you see them, and try to use them.
记下；写下
试图做某事
Match the persons with the questions.
