My grandma can speak several languages well. It made me interested in language learning when I was a primary student. My grandma moved from Switzerland to England when she was young. I was always surprised that she spoke English to me, Italian to my grandpa and French or German on the phone to her relatives and friends back home. What was more, she learned English by herself when she came to England.

As for me, although I can speak some Italian and German by listening to her, I only know a little grammar and sometimes get confused (困惑的). So it’s hard for me to understand how someone can speak several languages so well. I want to know how my grandma did it!

English is an international language and more and more people in the world speak English. I hardly use other languages in my own job. However, I think being able to ask for a meal in a restaurant while on holiday in a non-English speaking country would be great.

In fact, language learning is easier now than ever. New technology is the reason. For example, recording your voice helps you see how well you’re doing and helps you continue to improve. There are apps to help you learn new words. However, I still think going to classes improves conversation skills quickly. So it’s better to combine (结合) methods, or you can just spend a little time talking to my grandma!

“As China has a rich culture with highly developed economy, its language Chinese is important and interesting,” Afghan teenage Mohammad Ismael Adib tells Xinhua. “I have decided to learn Chinese because I would like to become a bridge of communication between Afghanistan and China,” says Adib, a junior boy student in the Department of Chinese Language and Literature of Kabul University. “More than 90 students including boys and girls are learning Chinese language in our university,” says Hamid Ghulami, director of the department. Ghulami, also a teacher of Chinese language in the department since 2014, says that learners of Chinese have been on the rise. “Although the department is new in Afghanistan, more and more students want to study in it,” Ghulami tells Xinhua. “I have learned Chinese for four years. It’s a very important language and I like it,” Khawaja Abdul Basir Sediqi tells Xinhua in a classroom of the Confucius Institute(学院). As a senior student in the institute, Sedigi says that China is a major economy with rich culture, and learning Chinese is necessary for cultural exchanges and business trade. “After graduation, I want to work as a translator or a teacher in Afghanistan to help push forward the relationship between the two neighboring nations,” he says.

Dear Jane,

I’m glad that you write to me and ask for advice on how to improve English vocabulary. Here are three pieces of my basic advice.

First, I suggest you read books. After reading for a long time, you can increase your vocabulary quickly because you may meet the same word for many times. Second, you said you are a shy school girl. It is natural that you are afraid of speaking English in front of your teachers or classmates. I advise you to make conversations with your classmates and act them out. Then you’ll become brave.

Third, you can write down five or six new words on a card every day and place it on your desk. You can remember these words any time you like.

I hope my advice can help you.

Yours,

Smith

Hello, everyone. My name is Zhang Li. I’m a thirteen-year-old girl. I can speak English very well. My classmates always ask me how to learn English. So, let me tell you something useful about it. Speaking, listening and writing are all very important.

If you want to speak English very well, you should read English fast and loudly. It can help you improve your pronunciation. If you do this for a long time, you can speak English like a native speaker.

If you want to be good at English, you should practise listening. When you talk with others, you should listen to them attentively (专注地). If you don’t pay attention to the dialogue (对话), you will miss a lot of things. What’s more, you can also listen to some English songs or stories. These will help you a lot.

Writing is also very important. When you learn a new word, you should use the new word every day. You can also make one or more sentences. So you will have more and more vocabularies. In this way, you can use the words very quickly.

You see, learning English is not very difficult. The most important thing is your interest. If we are interested in English, we can learn English well.

Many students face common challenges when studying a new language. Many Chinese students find it difficult to learn English, but not Chinese, because Chinese is their mother language. As an English teacher in Beijing, Xu Feng knows his students usually meet various difficulties in English learning. Among them, remembering new words, understanding the grammar and spoken English seem to be the most difficulties for students. How to deal with the difficulties in English learning? Here are Xu Feng’s suggestions:

First, copy new words on pieces of paper, stick them on the walls in the bedroom or living room, and read the words aloud when seeing them. Change the words often.

Next, focus on understanding and practicing the basic grammar rules before moving on to the more difficult ones.

Finally, practice speaking English as much as possible, whether it’s with foreigners, classmates, friends or teachers. Also, watching English TV shows or movies, listening to English songs, and reading English books are good ways to improve spoken English.

In a word, English learning is a challenging but rewarding (回报) experience. Remembering that practice makes perfect and never give up. We can achieve our language learning goals.

Chinese calligraphy(书法) is a traditional art of writing Chinese characters. Chinese scripts are the seal(篆), the official(隶), the regular(楷), the cursive(草) and the running(行). Different styles stand for different thoughts and emotions. The writing brush, Chinese ink, paper and ink stone are necessary materials and tools. They are known as the Four Treasures of the Study.

To write calligraphy, first of all, prepare the four treasures and lay out the paper. Then pour the ink into the ink stone tile(砚台). Next, hold the brush tightly with the thumb, index finger(食指) and middle finger of the right hand. Finally, dip the brush in the ink and write on the paper.

It’s not easy to write calligraphy. We need a long time of hard training to write beautifully. There were many famous calligraphers(书法家) in history such as Ouyang Xun, Yan zhengqing, Liu Gongquan and Zhao Mengfu, Calligraphers have created plenty of masterpieces which has been passed from generation to generation. Sometimes students are organized to admire the works of famous calligraphers. One of the most famous masterpieces is “Orchid Pavilion Preface(《兰亭序》) by Wang Xizhi another famous calligrapher in history.

Actually, writing Chinese calligraphy is a good way to keep calm. It’s a kind of high-level hobby in China. So on Chinese New Year’s Eve, many Chinese people can write couplets(对联) themselves and hang them on the door. It’s a symbol of good wishes for the coming year.

It’s very meaningful to spread our culture to future generation. We should try our best to learn calligraphy and carry it forward.
