Like speaking, its to exchange ideasPeople generally use shorter words and shorter sentences in their writingThe important thing is to make your idea in your head and then to write it in clear lively languageChinese students read far too slowlyIf you read fast, you understand betterIf you read too slowly, by the time you have reached the end of a page you have forgotten what the beginning is aboutWhen you meet with new words, dont look them up in the dictionaryGuess the meaning from the contextYou may not guess quite correctly the first time, but as new words come up again and again in different contexts, their meaning will become clearer and clearerIf you look up every word, youll never finish a bookStudents of a foreign language need a particular knowledge, the knowledge of the life, history and geography of the people whose language theyre studyingThey should study these subjects in the foreign language, not only in translationIn this way one can kill two birds with one stone: learn a foreign language and get some knowledge of the foreign country at the same time51How many points are there in the passage?
