How to learn English.
1 The first principle of learning English: strive to understand "what" and try to understand as little as possible "why".
Because English is a language, there is no rationale for the usage of many vocabulary and sentence patterns. There is no "why". This is how people use it and how it is said. Just remember it. Of course, a grammatical explanation may be found through careful analysis. When we were babies, when we were learning to speak, we never asked "Why did we say that?", but why did we speak so well later? Because we listened a lot and spoke a lot, so we naturally remembered it in our minds.
2 The best way to learn English: memorize the text.
Because English is our acquired language, we must repeatedly repeat what others have already said in our minds to form a neural reflex, without worrying about why we say it (same as the first point).
Recommend "New Concept English Volumes 3 and 4". It can be said that almost no textbook is more classic than "New Concept English". Its grammar is the most standardized and its structure is the most rigorous. It has been passed down for several generations and still maintains the most lasting vitality.
3 Learning English requires various forms of neural stimulation.
To truly learn English well, it is impossible to achieve the goal without reciting a lot of articles, writing a lot of things, and listening to a lot of articles. For example, if we see a new word in a book, write it down, recite it, and I can’t say that I really know each other. When you hear this word in listening, can you recognize it? When you want to express this meaning, can you recognize that you should use it?... When we first learned to speak, we all listened and spoke invisibly. , reading, writing and other inadvertent "practices" to fully master this language.
4 To learn English, you must be good at using fragmented time.
English learning cannot be learned in a rush. It is useless to spend several hours studying English all at once. Its characteristic is that "small water always flows". Spend more than ten minutes every day listening, memorizing a text, and memorizing a few words. If you persist for a long time, you will gradually improve.
5 Be careful about “showing off”.
Newly learned vocabulary and usage should be practiced and used in possible situations. Don't always use words or sentence patterns that you like or are familiar with. In this case, the newly learned things will never be reinforced, and they will gradually become unfamiliar, and people will always stay at the original level. Only by constantly changing new things into old things, and constantly being exposed to new things, and then changing them into old things, can we continue to improve.
