On Keeping a Diary in English
Keeping a diary in English is one of the effective ways to improve our English writing ability. Compared with other forms of writing, it is 36and takes less time. It can help us to develop the habit of thinking in English. 37we stick to this practice, gradually, well learn how to express ourselves in English. In keeping a diary in English, we 38run up against a lot of difficulties. In the first place, it happens that we have trouble in 39appropriate words and phrases to give expression to 40mind. Secondly, there are many idiomatic ways of saying things in Chinese. And it is extremely 41for us to put them into English properly. Surely, there are some other roadblocks we may come across 42keeping a diary in English.
As far as I am concerned, my suggestion is that we should always have a(n) 43and a Chinese-English dictionary within easy 44 . Whenever something beats us, we can put it down in our notebook and then consult our dictionary. We can also 45to English teachers for help, if necessary. In short, I believe that it is of great use to keep a diary in English for the development of our writing skills.
