According to a study,【小题1】 students read affects the level of writing they achieve. In the study, researchers surveyed students about their reading materials, and they also took a writing sample from their cover letters. Upon analyzing their【小题2】 (find), researchers concluded that students who read academic journals and literary fiction scored 【小题3】 (high) in measures of writing complexity than those who 【小题4】 (primary) read popular fiction or web content. Although the study didn’t investigate why a link between reading material and writing ability exists, the authors suggest our writing may simply imitate what we read.

However, Andrew Jarosz, 【小题5】 psychology professor, says this study had a relatively small sample size and that it’s too soon 【小题6】 (conclude) that the complexity of the material we read 【小题7】 (affect) the complexity of our writing.

“It could indeed be that reading complex materials leads to more complex writing,” he said. “Alternatively, what if those who are better writers prefer to read complex materials that mirror their own writing abilities? That is, 【小题8】 is entirely possible that the relationship goes in the other direction.”

Jarosz says other variables (可变因素) may also be responsible 【小题9】 why some people write at a higher level than others, 【小题10】 (include) intelligence and the ability to store and process information at the same time.

Learning a foreign language is a challenging task, 【小题1】 it can also be 【小题2】 very enjoyable experience. Here are a few tips on how to learn a foreign language well. Firstly, work on your own pace. You’ll find 【小题3】 more effective to study for half an hour rather than try to do a whole unit at once. Secondly, use language 【小题4】 (communicate). Don’t be afraid of【小题5】 (make) mistakes. The important thing is to build up your 【小题6】 (confident) in speaking. Thirdly, build up your vocabulary. You should learn vocabulary by topics or in sentences, 【小题7】 is very effective. Besides, get used to hearing everyday language at normal speed. Listening to the course recordings as 【小题8】 (frequent) as possible is a good 【小题9】 (choose). And above all, have fun 【小题10】 (learn) language.

In order to know a foreign language 【小题1】(complete), four things are necessary. Firstly, we must understand the language when we hear it 【小题2】(speak). Secondly, we must be able to speak it correctly with confidence and without 【小题3】(hesitate). Thirdly, we must be able to read the language, and fourthly, we must be able to write it. We must be able to make sentences that are grammatically correct.

There is no easy way to succeed 【小题4】 language learning. 【小题5】 good memory is of great help, but it is not enough only to memorize rules from a grammar book. It is not much use learning by heart long lists of words and 【小题6】(they) meaning, studying the dictionary and so on. We must learn by using the language. If we are satisfied with only a few rules we 【小题7】(memorize), we are not really learning the language. “Learn through use” is a good piece of advice for those 【小题8】 are studying a new language. Practice is very 【小题9】(importance). We must practise speaking and 【小题10】(write) the language whenever we can.
