writer, read good writing. Unfortunately, you may not have understood what did good to you and even what
you were supposed to get from that experience.
As you start reading a book, poem, or story, do so with no thought at all and the experience will improve
your writing. Just read for pleasure to begin with, or to learn. As you progress through the work, think about
whether or not it is "easy" reading. Do you become so interested in the subject and flow of the writing that
you completely forget the person who wrote it, or does the composition sometimes call too much attention to
itself through words and phrases that seem out of place or unexpected? These latter situations are a chance to
learn from the writer"s mistakes. In fact, the reader should not have to worry about how an author does "his
thing"... he should be able to just enjoy and learn. Every time a word strikes you as poorly chosen, stop to
consider why it has this effect. Also, do not spend a lot of time analyzing (分析) the passage but put more
efforts in enjoying it from the whole.
Another thing I do, particularly with nonfiction (非小说) books, is to select a part to read as if it is a
completely separate work. Once again, read as a common consumer (消费者) rather than a critic (批评家).
For learning how words and phrases work together on the most basic (基本的) level, however, nothing is
more suitable than your devotion to reading poems. A poet is often trying to put a book"s worth of meaning
and feelings into lines, and every side of the work shows a very close attention to craft (工艺).
As you can see, there is no one simple way of reading to improve your writing. The key is not to make
it boring. Select authors you admire or like most, and enjoy their works as anyone else would. As long as you
are reading, you are improving yourself as a writer.

Many Chinese students who have learnt English for more than ten years are still unable to speak English very well when they meet a foreigner. They seem to have mastered the basic language structure (结构), but a conversation in English will make them feel uneasy. They are afraid that other people might find out their mistakes. It"s uncommon that many students who are bad speakers of English can write English perfectly. This proves that they are unable to organize their idea in English. The center of the problem is that they lack practice and confidence (自信). Why should you be afraid? Do you fear those foreigners with whom you are speaking? Don"t be shy, they will not laugh at you just for a little mistake you make. The best way to get rid of trouble is to learn to speak by speaking more. I am sure that constant practice will help you succeed. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

There are some very good things about open education. This way of teaching allows the students to develop their own interests in many subjects. Open education allows students to be responsible for their own education. Some students do badly in traditional classrooms. The open classroom may allow them to enjoy learning. Some students will be happier in an open education school. They will not have to worry about grades or rules. But many students will not do well in an open classroom. For some students, there are too few rules. These students will do little in school. They will not make good use of open education. Because open education is so different from traditional education, these students may have a problem of getting used to making so many choices. For many students it is important to have some rules in the classroom. They worry about the rules even when there are no rules. Even a few rules will help this kind of students. The last point about open education is that some traditional teachers do not like it. Many teachers do not believe in open education. Teachers who want to have an open classroom may have many problems at their school. You now know what open education is. Some of its good points and bad points have been explained. You may have your own opinion about open education. The writer thinks that open education is a good idea, but only in theory. In actual fact, it may not work very well in a real class or school. The writer believes that most students, but of course not all students, want some structure in their classes. They want and need to have some rules. In some cases, they must be made to study some subjects. Many students are pleased to find subjects they have to study interesting. They would not study those subjects if they did not have to. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
