Reporter: Today, we invite May to share her experience of learning Spanish. May, when did you begin to learn Spanish? Why?
May: I started learning Spanish when I was six with the help of my mum. I chose to learn Spanish because I wished to become a doctor in Spain in the future. Learning Spanish allows me to help patients better.
Reporter: Is there anything surprising when you learn Spanish?
May: Yes, of course. At first, I didn't expect Spanish would be easy for me. But then I found there were some similarities (相似处)between English and Spanish. Some words in both languages have the same meaning and pronunciation. Putting those two languages together makes it much easier for me to learn Spanish.
Reporter: What's the best way of learning a language? Can you share it?
: May: The best way is speaking. You don't have to spend hours practising. But speaking some words in Spanish in my life helps me remember things easier and keep the language in mind.
Reporter: Do you have any other advice for those who start to learn a new language?
May: Taking detailed notes is also a great way. I write Spanish with a black pen and English with a red pen. That helps me understand it faster and better.

③Meaning. ④Pronunciation.
