How do you learn English best?

    This week we asked students at New Star High School about the best ways to learn English. Many students said they learnt English by using it. Some students had more specific suggestions. Li Lianli, for example, said the best way to learn new words was reading English magazines. She said that memorizing the words of pop songs also helped a little.When we asked about studying grammar, she said, "I never study grammar. It's too boring."

    Wei Ming felt different. He had been learning English for six years and really loved it. He thought studying grammar was a great way to learn a language. He also thought that watching English movies wasn't a bad way because he could watch the actors say the words. Sometimes, however, he found watching movies frustrating because the actors spoke too quickly.

    Liu Chang said that joining the English club at school was the best way to improve her English. Students could get lots of practice and they could also have fun. She added that having conversations with friends was not helpful at all. "We get excited about something and then end up speaking in Chinese ， " she said.

    Jia Meng used to keep a diary in Chinese. But one year ago, the 14-year-old girl from Heilongjiang began to write her diaries in English, because Jia found her mother was reading her diary secretly. She changed the language because her mother can't read English. "It's like killing two birds with one stone," said Jia. "My privacy(隐私) becomes safe and my English improves a lot."

    Jia's mother is not the only mom who reads her child's diary. Recently, Renmin University of China had a national survey among over 2,300 parents. The results show that about 40% of parents read their children's secrets.

That's why many teenagers try to find ways to protect their privacy.

    Wu Lei, 15, from Shanxi, keeps a diary, too. But he doesn't write it on paper. He writes online, which he thinks is perfectly safe because his parents "know nothing about the Internet".

    Lu Huan, 13, from Guangdong, said her parents always secretly listened to the talk between her friends and her on the telephone in their room. To solve this problem, Lu asked her parents to buy her a cell phone.

    "Parents want to know what is going on in their children's lives," said Shao Xiaozhen, a teenage expert in Beijing. "But sometimes they go about it the wrong way." Shao suggested the teenagers that instead of hiding their secrets, talking with parents is a better solution. "If your parents know that you are safe, they'll let you keep your secrets."
