ents to remember more words. I have taken some measures to them to master words. The students can remember or master words by teaching the knowledge about affix(prefix and suffix). For example, the word “difficult” is an adjective pattern, but if we change the word ”difficult” into “difficulty”, it has become a noun pattern; Again the word “appear” is a verb pattern, if we change it into “appearance”, it has a opposite meaning of “appear”. Each word is each brick, it is the most basic material for putting up a high building. The more, the better.
B: Mastering and practicing the basic sentences.
Even though we have mastered quite many words, We should know how to make sentences with these words correctly and properly. Mastering and practicing all kinds of basic sentences is necessary.
C: The role of teacher.
In order to make students master all kinds of sentences. I have also taken some measures. At first, I ask my students to master some grammars; members of sentences, kinds of sentences, tenses of verbs and so on. I ask my students to familiar to them , then speak them out and at last use them . Second I try my best to make my students be interested in writing in English. If they have interest and courage, they must learn it well. Third I can speak English as much as possible in class and out of class, and encourage them talk to each other in English.
D: The role of students.
Students are mainly part of education. With the help of their teachers, they should use English in listening, speaking, reading and writing, especially writing. Students should write more compositions. So they can recreate these real life activities.
