Like any other English learner, I met a lot of difficulties in learning English.

　　 First, I found it difficult to understand what I read because most English words have more than one meaning. Besides, I found it difficult to write in idiomatic English or put Chinese into idiomatic English. Finally, I couldn't express in English orally because I had no opportunity to communicate with native English speakers. Although I often read aloud, this didn't prove to be an effective way to improve my spoken English.

　　 But I didn't lose heart in removing these obstacles. I tackled English vocabulary in two ways. First,I tried to understand and memorize the specific meaning of a word that appears in the context. Second, I enlarge my vocabulary by learning the dictionary by heart. To overcome Chinese English, I tried to think in English directly. Although I still had no opportunity to communicate with native speakers, I improved spoken English by listening to the English broadcast and writing English composition. This expedient turned out to be effective.

　　 像任何其他的英语学习者,我在学习英语遇到了很多困难。

　　 首先,我发现很难明白我读,因为大多数英语单词有一个以上的意义。此外,我发现很难用地道英语或者把中国变成地道英语。最后,我无法用英语口头表达,因为我没有机会与以英语为母语的人交流。虽然我经常大声朗读,这并没有被证明是一个有效的方法来提高我的英语口语。

　　 但我不灰心的消除这些障碍。我从两方面解决英语词汇。首先,我试着去理解和记忆一个单词的具体含义,出现在上下文。第二,我扩大我的词汇量,学习词典。为了克服中国式的英语,我想直接用英语思考。虽然我还没有机会与母语者交流,我的英语口语提高了听英语广播和英语作文写作。这种办法是有效的。
