In order to know a foreign language completely, four things are necessary. First, we must understand the
language when we hear it spoken. Secondly, we must be able to speak it ourselves, correctly with confidence and without hesitation (犹豫). Thirdly, we must be able to write it. We must be able to make sentences that are correct in grammar. There is no short way to succeed in language learning. A good memory is a great help, but it is not enough only to memorize the rules from a grammar book. It is no much use learning by heart long lists of words and their meanings, studying the dictionary and so on. We must learn by using the language. If we are pleased with a few rules we have memorized, we are not really learning the language. We must “Learn through use”. Practice is important. We must practise speaking and writing the language whenever we can. 41. The most important things to learn a foreign language are . A. understanding and speaking C. writing and understanding

I like playing football on the playground where is in the north of our school. I like them because I can play football with friends happy and we can also have matches. Although we are busy with our study, we always spared as much time as possibly to practise. As matter of fact, I begin playing football when I was only eight years old, and I have been good at it. I joined in the school team as soon as I entered senior high school. How fun it is to play football, especially on the beautiful autumn days with a number of fallen leaf on the ground.
