Many students ask for advice about how to improve their English. Here are three basic questions.

很多学生询求关于怎样提高他们的英语水平的建议。这儿是三个基本问题。

The first question is about understanding English films and songs. Li Hao from Hubei wrote, "I like watching English films and listening to English songs, but I don't understand very much. What can I do?"

第一个问题是关于（如何）理解英文电影和歌曲的。来自湖北的李浩写道：“我喜欢看英文电影和听英文歌曲，但我理解的不多。我该怎么办呢？”

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.

看电影和听歌曲是学习英语很好的方式！看和听几遍，并猜测生词的意思。每一遍你都会学到新东西。我还建议你和朋友们谈论一下这些电影或歌曲。

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?"

第二个问题是关于口语的。来自吉林的王帆写道：“我们学校有一位来自美国的老师。我很腼腆，不敢与她说话。我该怎么办？”

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.

你可以说：“嗨！你好吗？”“你喜欢中国吗？”这些都是发起交谈的好方式。在你开始（讲英语）前，你应该向她微笑！记住这一点：别害羞，去试一试。

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?"

第三个问题是关于词汇的。来自安徽的张雷写道：“我写下生词，但我很快就忘记了。我怎样才能记住它们呢？”

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.oRead the words when you see them, and try to use them.

别担心，忘记生词是很自然的！我建议你每天把四五个单词写在纸片上，放在你的房间里。看到这些单词的时候就读一读，并且尽量运用它们。
