English is very i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )mportant 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 (有规律地) 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. 21世纪教育网版权所有

The Future of Chinese
As we all know, there are many languages in the world, and different countries have different languages as their mother languages, such as Chinese, English, Russian and French. Chinese, which can be dated back to thousands of years ago, is widely spoken in the world, and will have a bright future, acting a more and more

important role on the world stage. The reasons
are as follows.
First of all, Chinese characters are a kind of
writing in pictures, which are easy to learn and
memorize.
Second, compared with other languages,
Chinese has much emotional coloring,
including happiness, angriness, sadness and
pleasure. There are many words and
expressions for choices to express different
feelings.
Third, taking up one-fifth of the world's
population, China will have more and more
effects on the world in all kinds of fields, like
politics, economy and culture. China will
become the centre of the world. And certainly
Chinese, as the mother language of it, will be
used more and more often.
From a long run, Chinese will have a bright
future and have the opportunity to be the
world language.
