Do you like English? How many English words have you learned so far? It seems that many students find it difficult to remember new words when they begin to study English．Let me give you some advice：

    1．Do not waste time in learning a list of English words．It is the hardest way to remember them．How did you learn to speak English? You did it by listening carefully to people talking around you．Find some radio programs，TV programs and records，and listen to them carefully．The best way to learn all new words is by ears．As you listen to more and more dialogues，you will learn how English is pronounced in phrases and sentences．Of course．it is not enough to learn new words；you must learn how words are put together, and why some words in English are emphasized(重讀)．

    2．Some people have found that they can learn tile names of everyday objects such as a box，a bottle，a cup，a desk，in the following way．They write the words as they say them．Try this and see if this way works for you．If it does not，then practice dialogues．
