Children are amazing! They① pick up languages so naturally and easily. Have you ever wondered why? It's not because they have great natural language abilities.② In fact, studies show that an adult's potential(潜能) to learn language is as good as a child's .

So why do children still seem  to acquire(学到) languages more quickly than the rest of us? It's because of the way they learn. Children learn by simply doing  what comes naturally—they listen, copy and communicate. Let's take a closer  look at how children ac quire languages. Perhaps we can discover a better, more "natural" way to learn English.

Children don't practice grammar drills, but use  languages to talk about things that interest them. This helps them learn to express themselves. They don't worry  about inadequate(不足的) vocabulary or poor grammar.  They find ways  to express themselves, and they do it successfully.

③Students should pay more attention to genuine(真实的) communication. Look for chances to talk with people in English. If you can't find a foreigner to talk to, talk with other English students instead. Start an English discussion group and chat about music, movies or whatever interests you.

Don't worry about making mistakes. The aim is to learn how to communicate easily and comfortably. Remember that you can communicate successfully even with a small vocabulary.

Trust your own natural ability  to learn English. You've got more potential than you probably realize!
