    　　Like most English children, I learned foreign languages at school．When I made my first visit to the United States, I was sure I could have a nice and easy holiday without any language problem．But how wrong I was!

    　　At the American airport, I was looking for a public telephone to tell my friend Danny that I had arrived．An American asked if he could help me．"Yes," I said, '1 want to give my friend a ring．"

    　　"Well, that's nice．Are you getting married?" he asked．"No," I replied, "I just want to tell him I have arrived．" "Oh," he said, "there is a phone downstairs on the first floor．" "But we're on the first floor now," I said．

    　　"Well, I don't know what you are talking about Maybe you aren't feeling too well after your journey," he said．"Just go and wash up, and you will feel a lot better．" And he went off, leaving me wondering where on earth I was：At home we wash up after a meal to get the cups and plates clean．How can I wash up at an airport?

    　　At last we did meet．Danny explained the misunderstanding：Americans say "to give someone a call", but we English say "to give somebody a ring"．When we say "to wash your hands", they say "to wash up"．And Englishmen start numbering from the ground floor so the first floor is the second for Americans．

    　　When you are learning English，listening，speaking and writing are important，but reading can also be very helpful．When you read，you can not only learn some new words，but also learn how to use these English words．When you read，it gives you a good example for writing．

    　　Good reading tips (建议)：

    　　Try to read at the right level (水平)．Read something that you can (more or less)understand．If you need to stop every three words to use a dictionary，it is not interesting．

    　　Try to increase the number of your new words．If there are four or five new words on a page，write them in your notebook．But you don't have to write them while you read．Instead try to guess their meaning as you read；mark them with a pen．Then come back when you have finished reading to look them up in a dictionary and write them in your own vocabulary (词汇) book．Then try to remember them．

    　　Try to read regularly (定期)．For example，read for a short time once a day．Fifteen minutes every day is better than two hours every Sunday．Fix (固定) a time to read and keep to it．For example，you could read for fifteen minutes when you go to bed，or when you get up or you are at lunchtime．

    　　Read what interests you．Choose a book or a magazine about a subject that you like，because you are going to spend time and money to read it．So choose an interesting book．You can also read newspapers．There are many English newspapers in China．For example，21st Century Teens．It's easy enough for you to understand．There is something interesting in it．
