Churchill and Bernard Shaw
Winston Churchill was prime minister of Britain during world war II. He was a fat and short man. Gorge Bernard Shaw was a famous writer. He was tall and lean. Both of them were humorists.
When they met at a reception , Churchill said to Shaw with a smile, “Mr. Shaw ,when people see you ,they must think there is a famine in our country.” “ yes,” said Bernard Shaw, “but they must think you are responsible for it.”

英语村:
1. 勤奋自信
学一种全新的语言并非易事。要养成良好的学习习惯:“先预习,后听课”,“先复习,后作业”;词不离句,句不离口,多说多用。
2. 对“症”下药
良好的开端是成功的一半(well begun is half done).英语学习靠训练、靠记忆、靠积累、重听说。要眼看、耳听、嘴说、手心、心(脑)记,多种器官一起开动,才能学好英语。
3.查漏补缺
在掉队的情况下,要处理好“补旧”与“学新”的关系,花大力气补学旧课是必要的。当然,也要保证新知识、技能的学习。
4.改进方法
“错误备忘录”和“卡片法”是行之有效的方法。制作一张精美的“学习日常活动的英语表达卡”,如,wash one’s face(洗脸),brush one’s teeth (刷牙)等。
5.及时请教
多教老师可少走弯路,节省时间;语音、语调等方面的辅导更是离不开老师。
