外研版英语八年级上册Module 1 How to learn English Unit 2 课外作业练习题
There are some ways to improve your English, but I think the most important thing is to make English all around you. Here is some advice for you.
Listen to the radio in English. If there are no English radio stations where you live, listen to one on the Internet.
Watch TV and movies in English. If there are English channels on your TV, watch them. If there are no English channels, you can buy some DVDs of English movies.
Speak English to your friends. You can make friends with someone who is good at English and speak English with him or her as much as possible. You'd better make friends with people whose native language is English. Ask your friends to correct your mistakes when needed.
Study or travel to an English-speaking country. Of course the best way to improve your English is to live in English environments. You will find yourself surrounded with the language everywhere. It can be a more difficult and expensive choice, but you may find it to be a very valuable and helpful experience.

The first record of a kite was more than 2,000 years ago in China. It's said that Han Xin, the leader of an army wanted to dig a tunnel (隧道) into a king's palace. He flew a kite over the wall of the palace to make sure the length (长度) of its string. In this way, he could decide how long the tunnel should be. Kites have been flown in Japan for hundreds of years. In the 1700s, kites were flown in autumn to give thanks for a good harvest. They were also flown to send good wishes to couples who had their first son. Today in Japan, flying kites is seen as part of a celebration at the beginning of a new year. And kite festivals are held each year in many parts of the country. Kites have been used for science purposes in the western world. The United States Weather Bureau has used box kites to collect weather data for 35 years. How amazing the kites are! Weifang in Shangdong Province is famous for its kites. Weifang International Kite Festival, one of the most famous kite festivals, is held here in April every year.
