How many roads must a man walk before we call him a man？

　　How many years must I learn English before I pass the exam？

　　This is a popular song in school. It reflects a common thought that English is difficult to master. In some students’eyes, English is ghost. Is it true？

　　Michel Jordan said, I love this game pointing at a basketball he was holding in his arms. Therefore, he focused his life onit, exhausted after each game but happy all his life. At last, he succeeded, and is now known as the world’ s Flying Man .Einstein said, Interest is the best teacher. He loved physics, so he wrote a historic book Theory of Relativity. It’ s true that one’ s talent plays an import role in success, but perhaps the real key lies in one’ s interest, his or her deep affection towards career.

　　One can’ t devote him or herself to career without keen interest. Studying English is the same. If you are eager to learn English well, the best way is not to recite word by word, or to bury your head in routine exercises. Instead the first thing you should do is to love English.

　　In my eyes, English is an angel. Studying English is a source of pleasure tome. I always feel energetic when I study English, each word in my eyes is a glass of fresh water, and I were as a person desert ed in desert for several days or weeks or months. I can’ t help myself reading or reciting new English texts as soon as possible. I believe English is angel, she has a magic effect onme. I am deeply attracted to this interesting language. Maybe that’ s the most important reason why my best subject is English. English is a ghost. many students think, so English keeps a distance away from them.

　　English is an angel. I think, so English becomes my best company in life.

　　魔鬼乎？天使乎？

　　一个人要跋涉过多少条路途才能真正做到顶天立地？

　　一个学生要学多少年后英语才能及格？

　　这是一句在校园中流行的歌词。英语很难掌握，这似乎是一个普遍的现象。甚至在一些同学眼中，英语是魔鬼。真的是这样吗？

　　迈克尔•乔丹指着怀中的篮球说：“我热爱这项比赛。”于是他不遗余力地打球，挥汗如雨却笑容满面，所以世界称他为“飞人乔丹”。爱因斯坦说，兴趣是最好的老师。对物理浓厚的兴趣让他废寝忘食，于是《相对论》———这部创造历史的著作诞生了。诚然，在他们的成功中天赋扮演了重要的角色，但或许是对事业的热爱最终引领他们走向成功。

　　一个不热爱自己事业的人不可能对其全力以赴。学习英语也是如此。

　　如果你真的热切盼望着学好英语，最好的方法不是去“勤奋”地死记硬背，不是整日埋头题海，要做的第一件事应该是去热爱英语。

　　在我的眼中，英语是天使，学习英语对我来说是快乐的源泉。当我学习英语的时候，总感到浑身有着无尽的活力。每一个单词在我眼中都是一杯澄澈的泉水，而我的确是一位在沙漠中口渴了几天的路人。情不自禁地，我想去阅读它们，背诵它们。我不得不相信英语是位天使，她对我有着魔力，这门有趣的语言深深地吸引了我。或许这就是为什么英语是我最拿手的一门学科的根本原因。

　　英语是魔鬼，很多同学这样说。因为他们讨厌英语，于是英语“知趣”地远离他们。英语是天使，我这样认为，于是英语乐意与我结伴而行。

　　学习经验介绍：让英语

　　刊物常在身边，将英语磁带听得四分五裂，让英语单词在心中滚瓜烂熟，让外国朋友听得“赏心悦目”，让中国的同学听得“云里雾里”，让英文字母常在脑海中徘徊，让学习英语为己一大荣幸。
