Reading is the key to school success and, like any skill, it takes practice. A child learns to walk by practicing until he no longer has to think about how to put one foot in front of the other. An excellent sportsman practices until he can play quickly, correctly and without thinking. Educators call it "automaticity (自动性)".
A child learns to read by sounding out the letters and finding the meaning of the words. With practice, he stumbles less and less, reading by the phrase. With automaticity, he doesn't have to think about the meaning of words, so he can give all his attention to the meaning of the text.
It can begin as early as the first grade. In a recent study of children in Illinois schools, Alan Rossman of Northwestern University found that automatic readers in the first grade not only read almost three times as fast as the others, but also got better results in exams.
According to Rossman, the key to automaticity is the amount(数量)of time a child spends reading, not his IQ. Any child who spends at least 3.5 to 4 hours a week reading books, magazines or newspapers will probably reach automaticity. It can happen if a child turns off TV just one night for reading at home.
You can test yourself by reading something new which is suitable for your level. If you read aloud with expression, with a sense of the meaning of the sentences, you probably are an automatic reader. If you read brokenly, one word at a time, without expression or meaning, you need more practice.
Five Tips for Learning Language
Although learning a foreign language can be difficult, the following tips will increase your ability to succeed in language learning.
{#blank#}1{#/blank#}
Accept the fact that you will not understand everything. Not understanding and making
mistakes are a very natural part of the language learning process. In fact, at the very beginning, you will not understand much at all. Don't expect too much.

Research shows that language students learn better when they study more often. And they also learn better for shorter periods of time. Try to study each day, and whenever possible, several times a day.

The process of using language from your mind to your mouth is a skill that requires a great deal of practice. So say vocabulary words out loud, read passages in the text aloud, do pronunciation activities aloud and not just silently.

Work together on homework assignments(任务), to learn vocabulary, to study for tests, or just to practice speaking the language. Communication does not only happen between the teacher and students, but more among you and your classmates.

There is no" best" way to learn a language, because everyone learns a bit differently. Find your own personal advantages and let them help you in your learning process. It is more important for you to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every word.
A. Set possible expectations. B. Work with study groups. C. Practice language actively. D. Divide study time into smaller parts. E. Be patient to work with classmates. F. Find your own way in language learning. |
