Dear Lin Tao,

    I was happy to read your letter. You asked me for some{#blank#}1{#/blank#}on learning English. At first, I also found it hard to remember so many words and phrases. Then I found that the best way was{#blank#}2{#/blank#}learn their pronunciations. There are some useful rules in the pronunciation, and they can help me remember new words{#blank#}3{#/blank#}. I also had some grammar problems when I was in the first grade. I tried to read more. Now it isn't very{#blank#}4{#/blank#}.for me to understand the sentences and passages. That's my secret of {#blank#}5{#/blank#} English. I hope it helps you. Please never give up!

Yours,

Mary
