I think we make quite a few mistakes when we study English. First of all, we do not spend enough time on reading (I personally believe 60% of our time should be used for reading). The consequence is that we do not have enough vocabulary and expressions and we are also unable to organize the sentences fluently. Therefore we should read foreign magazines and newspaper as much as possible. Secondly, we ignore the importance of listening comprehension. It is not hard for us to understand the meaning of short sentence. How about understand four or five sentences? How about understanding the talk of American soap opera? It is far enough. That’s why I suggest 30% of our time is used for listening comprehension. (to be continued)
