18、y I had a conversation in Beijing with an adult Chinese friend who was complaining how difficult it was to study English. No surprises there. It is a difficult language to master, just like Chinese. I made a few suggestions based on my experience. One involved a very valuable fact which I learned fr
19、om my high school Latin and Greek teacher, Dr. SmithHe is a gifted linguist （语言学家）, and has an amazing ability to memorize things, like poetry, essays, speeches, etcHis advice to us students is that for memorization purposes, there is forty minutes each day in which our memory is more receptive than
20、 it is during the other 23 hours and 20 minutes. This 40-minute super memory period is divided into two parts: the 20 minutes before we sleep, and the 20 minutes after we first awake. The theory supporting this is pretty simple. First, the last information we input into our brain before bed has a be
21、tter chance of taking root than information obtained during the noisy daytime; and，second, our mind is free of disturbance when we first awake in the morning一so more receptive to inputs, like a blank slate（石板） I took the advice to heart and it served me well in my school yearsIn my university days,
22、our Chinese teacher would assign us 200 new vocabulary words each day, on which we would be quizzed the following day. Without the magic 40-minute technique, theres no way I would have passed those daily quizzes. As far as language study goes, its not only useful for memorizing vocabulary. Its also
23、a very useful window of time to listen to the language were studying even with background noise, and even if its at a level we find difficult to understand. It might be audio（声音的）language study aids, or just radio, TV or whatever. Beyond our years of formal education, memory skills are hugely import
24、ant in any career. How many times have we heard a speaker read their speech from. a prepared text, or read the word-by-word content of a PowerPoint presentation as they present each slide? These are annoying, boring, and ineffective ways of communicating. They are almost guaranteed to lose the audie
25、nces close attention and interest, let alone persuade or inspire anyone to do anything. And yet lots of people still make this mistake. If we use the 40-minute technique, we may not succeed in memorizing our presentation content on a 100% word-by-word basis, but well be familiar enough so that we ca
26、n spend much more time making eye contact with our audience. We will engage them in the process, while glancing at our text instead of staring at it. This will also free up our hands and arms to convey some extra messages through gesture As you see, the technique really works, but like many things,-
27、 it takes practice to perfect it. Therefore，wed better find ways to use the language outside of the classroom，as regularly and frequently as possible. One fundamental rule of language learning is, Use it, or lose it” Seize the forty-minute learning window and well bring in a rich harvest of language

My Advice on Learning English BYellowstone WeatherYellowstone National Park is at high altitude(海拔). Most of the park is above 7,500 feet (2,275 meters).Yellowstones weather i
33、s changeable. In summer, it may be warm and sunny with temperatures in the high 70s. At night in any given month, the temperature may drop close to freezing. So it is best to come prepared for cold evenings and mornings, especially if you are camping. When you leave your campsite, please leave it pr
34、epared for possible thunder showers and wind.A sunny warm day may become fiercely stormy with wind, rain, sleet and sometimes snow.

43、asnt really a doctor at all. Everybody cheats; nobodys playing the game. Is cheating acceptable, a natural way of surviving and being successful? Or is it something that should be frowned on, and young people discouraged from doing? If its the latter how can we explain to children why so many bend t
44、he rules?Take sport for example. The World Cup was filled with cheating. Whether diving, pretending to be hurt or denying a handball, footballers will do anything for a free kick or a penalty shot. France striker Henry denied cheating to win the free kick which led to his sides second goal in their
45、3 1 victory over Spain. Many footballers, however, are often putting it on. Whatever the nationality theres one common ploy: the player rolls over holding their leg, ankle or head seeming to be in great pain. As a result a yellow card and / or free kick is given for the foul and then, a few seconds later, the player is up and about as if nothing had happened ! The ref (裁判) may be taken in by it but youngsters watching the game arent. they also see their heroes getting away with it.Of course its not just football. In 1998 the Tour de France, the worlds greatest cycli
