In many tests and exams,you will often have to speak English.Lots of students think that the only important thing 31. speaking is not to make any mistakes,but this is not true!You are tested on your ability to communicate 32. ,so fluency(流利) is a very important part of communication.
Here are some ways to help you speak fluently:
Keep calm and give yourself time to think.
Think about the message you want to send to the other person,not only about the grammar you are using.
If you make a mistake,don’t worry!It’s normal to make mistakes,so don’t panic(惊慌).
If you can’t remember 33. to say a word in English,don’t stop!Try to explain the word if you can.For example,if you can’t remember the word “kitchen”,say “The room in the house where I cook.”
It’s OK to pause(暂停) or stop if you need to think about how to say something.But try not to pause too many times or for too long.
34. you answer a question,try not to give too many short answers.For example,if 35. other person asks,“Do you have any brothers or sisters ” don’t just say,“Yes”or “No”.Say,for example,“Yes,I have a sister and she’s 12.And a brother,he is 11.”
All in all,speaking fluently is quite important when we communicate with others.By following the above advice,you may find your speaking improves.

Words are the key to language.And if you want to improve your ability to speak, listen and write in English,you have to learn lots of words.Here are some ideas to help you.
Record important words.Some words are more important than other words.For example,“rain” is very common and can be found in a number of important expressions. For example,rainbow,raincoat,rainy,pour with rain...Where possible,pay special attention to the high frequency(频率) words and all their associated(有关联的) forms.
When you want to record a new word or expression,remember to write it out in an example sentence.This will give you useful information about the way the word or term is used,and the other words often associated with it.For example,Rain—It’s been pouring with rain.
Learn words.Some words are easy to learn.For example,the English word “sofa” is similar in Chinese(sha fa).Other words are more difficult,but these ideas might help you.
Use the power of the similar sounds between words!For example,imagine you want to learn the word “whale”.Simply think of a word that sounds like “whale” in English or in your own language.Then,make a sentence with this word.For example,“The whale has a long tail.”
Use the power of humour!Simply make a funny sentence with the word.This will help you remember the word more easily.For example,“William,the whale was using his tail to sail the boat.”
Try these methods and find your own ways to learn words and expressions.

One possible version:
I Have Made Progress
How time flies! I have made great progress in my past three years.
I used to be lazy and wasn’t interested in English.I was not good at communicating with others,either.Last year,my new English teacher,Mrs.Liu,had a long conversation with me.She gave me great help and encouraged me not to give up.She taught me some good ways of learning English.So I made a decision to study hard at English.For example,I took notes in class.I watched English movies as often as possible.I spent much time learning English every day.Besides,she encouraged me to make more friends and be friendly to others.With her help,I became much more outgoing and had many great friends.
Now I’m glad that I have made some progress and caught up with others in my class.听力材料：
