My English Learning Tips
Ask yourself weekly: What do I want to learn this week?
Quickly review important new information shortly before going to bed.
While doing exercises and being alone at home or in your room, speak English aloud.
Do five to ten minutes of listening at least four times a week.
Look for situations in which you must speak/read/listen to English.
Language points
1. I was afraid to ask questions because of my poor pronunciation.
be afraid to do sth. 意为“害怕/不敢做某事”。
That little girl is afraid to go out alone.
Shy people are often afraid to speak up.
afraid 后可加不定式、of和动名词、that 引导的从句。
Don’t be afraid to ask questions.
Our teacher is strict with us, but we are not afraid of her.
I am afraid of going through that woods.
The little girl was afraid that she would die.
2. I fell in love with this exciting and funny stories!
fall in love with 意为“爱上;与……相爱”。
You will fall in love with this game, too.
The two fell in love with each other at the first sight.
be in love with 表示状态,fall in love with 表示动作。
They have been in love for two years.

3. My pronunciation improved as well by listening for just the
key words.
as well 意为“也;又”。
I write my own songs and I play the guitar as well.
He is a teacher and a writer as well.
【辨析】
also, too, as well, either 这些词均含“也”之意。
also 比too正式一些,语气较重,只用于肯定句,一般紧靠动词。
too 语气较轻,多用于口语,在肯定句中使用,通常位于句末。
as well 一般不用否定句,通常放在句末,强调时可放在句中。
either 用于否定句,放在句末,之前加逗号。
4. I discovered that listening to something interesting is the secret to
language learning.
(1) discover v. 意为“(出乎意料地)发现;发觉”。
She discovered the cat under the table.
We discovered her to be a good cook.
【辨析】
discover, find, find out, look for 这组词(组)都有“发现”的意思。
discover 指发现或偶然发现原来就存在但一直未被认识的东西。
look for 作“寻找”解时,指寻找的动作和过程。
find 指寻找的结果,即“找到”,是非延续性动词,不如discover正式。
find out 指经过观察、调查把某事、某物查出来,搞清楚,弄明白,多用于复杂而不易直接查出的情况。
(2) 这句话中that引导一个宾语从句,在这个宾语从句中主语是listening to something interesting,是一个动名词短语。
Riding a bike can make a man smart.
Our plan must remain a secret.
He made no secret of his dislike for me.
(3) secret n. 意为“秘密;秘诀”。
in secret 意为“偷偷地,暗地里”。
He has left the country in secret.
keep sth. a secret from/keep a/the secret from 意为“对……保守秘密”。
I keep nothing a secret from you.
5. I looked them up in a dictionary.
look up 在这里是“查阅”的意思。
You should look up the right pronunciation of this word in the dictionary.
look up 还有“向上看”的意思。
When looking up suddenly, Henry saw a rainbow in the sky.
【拓展】
look after 照看,照顾 look around 环顾;四周看
look at 看,朝……看;检查 look for 寻找
look into 朝……里面看;调查 look like 看起来像……
look out of 朝……外看 look over 仔细检查;细看;温习
