Besides, I am always attentive in class when my teacher illustrates language points. As for my English learning, I find it a big challenge for me to apply the words and expressions to my written and spoken English. Although I can not find any difficulty in memorizing their meanings, yet I do not have any idea whether it is appropriate to use them in my writing. Sometimes, I even find the vocabulary stored in my mind goes blank whenever I make a conversation with an English speaker, which does frustrate me a lot.
Having read this text, I realize the means I have adopted in my English learning are far from enough. I should turn to more alternative means that are suitable to my learning style. For example, when I learn a new word or expression from a textbook, I will consult the examples given by a dictionary to see in what circumstance we can use it properly and then I will use it to make meaningful sentences of my own. In this way, I am confident that my proficiency in English can increase a lot.1. efficient adj. 有效率的; 高效的(working well and without wasting time, money or energy)
