There are many aspects（方面）t language learning, such as hw t say wrds, which wrds t chse, and what frm f wrds t use. All f these aspects tgether can make learning a freign language very difficult. But there are sme pints that might make it easier, and mre fun.
First, dn’t wrry t much abut prnuncing wrds the wrng way. Prnunciatin is imprtant, f curse. It helps the listener t understand what is said mre clearly. Hwever, the mst imprtant step in learning a new language is t practice speaking it. Like learning any new skill（技能）, practice makes perfect. And when yu practice speaking the new language, the native speaker（说本族语的人）usually thinks highly f yur hard wrk and is ready t help imprve yur prnunciatin.
Secnd, dn’t be afraid t guess the meaning f what smene says. There will be a lt f wrds t learn while studying a freign language. In fact, there are tens f thusands f different wrds in English. And a wrd may have mre than ne meaning. The same ges with any ther language. It is impssible t knw all the wrds and all the meanings. Use clues（提示）t guess the meaning f what thers say. When meeting a persn that says “Hla” and waves his r her hand, ne might guess that the persn is giving a greeting. It is nt imprtant at that mment t knw the exact meaning. With mre practice f guessing the meaning f new wrds, yur vcabulary will increase.
Third, dn’t lse hpe. Learning a new language always takes time. Many will give up learning because learning all f the rules f anther language is t hard r bring. Sme may think that ther peple will make fun f them fr making mistakes. But it’s OK t make mistakes. Nbdy is perfect, after all. Dn’t give up and keep trying.
In the end, learning a new language can be difficult, but remember that it can have great benefits（益处）. Learning a new language desn’t just mean the ability t speak in that different language. It can als include making new friends, experiencing new adventures in a different culture, and tasting new fds!
23. What can we learn frm the passage?
A. English has mre wrds than any ther language.
B. Native speakers think highly f perfect prnunciatin.
C. Guessing the meaning f new wrds is an imprtant skill.
D. Learning grammar rules is easier than learning prnunciatin.
24. The writer suggests a freign language learner shuld __________.
A. g t a freign cuntry t learn it
B. feel relaxed abut making mistakes
C. remember as many wrds as pssible
D. find interesting ways t learn the rules
25. What is the passage mainly abut?
A. Advice fr learning a freign language.
B. Reasns fr learning a freign language.
C. Difficulties in learning a freign language.

It’s Gd t Ask fr Help
Part f grwing up is learning hw t wrk things ut fr yurself. Hwever, yu dn’t have t struggle alne all the time. Learning hw t ask thers t lend a hand is als an imprtant life skill.
When yu might need help
There are lts f reasns why yu culd need help, fr example, with schlwrk, learning a new skill, r when yu feel sad, wrried r angry.

Asking fr help will mve yu frward mre quickly than trying n yur wn.
27
Asking fr help isn’t always easy. Yu might feel red-faced that yu need help, r yu think asking fr a helping hand is a sign f weakness. These thughts make it hard fr yu t turn t anther persn. Angela McMillan, a cunsellr（顾问）wh advises yung peple, says asking fr help can als feel risky, especially when yu are nt sure wh t ask. “Yu might feel afraid that they dn’t have time, r they wn’t take yur prblem seriusly.”
Asking fr help is brave
Everyne finds things difficult smetimes—yu’re nt the nly ne. McMillan believes asking fr help is an act f bravery. “Letting smene in, believing in them and asking them t listen t yu and help yu slve a prblem takes great curage（勇气）.”
Asking fr help is gd fr yu
When yu ask fr help, it makes yu less wrried, and it usually prduces a better result. There are ther benefits t. By asking fr help, yu practice speaking up fr yurself and saying what yu need. It shws yu hw smene else might feel when they’re struggling, which means yu culd be mre able t ffer a hand when smene needs it.
