10: Produce, produce, produce. No matter how shy you are or how much you don’t “get” English, force yourself to speak

说出来说出来说出来。无论你多么内向，英语多烂，逼着自己去说

Help out a tourist who looks lost. They won’t mind you struggling with the language while you’re doing them a favor! After class, talk to your teacher about how things are going and what you need help with in English. When traveling, ask around for directions in English, even if you don’t need them! Try purchasing things online and by phone, or using customer support in English.

帮助看似迷路的外国游客。只要是在帮忙，他们不介意你英语的好坏！课后和老师谈谈最近的近况，以及需要得到英语学习方面什么样的帮助。旅游的时候，用英语问一下路，哪怕并不需要！试试用英语网购、手机购物或使用客户服务！

It does not matter if you talk slowly, you are learning, that’s only natural!

说的慢没关系，关键在于你是在学习！

BONUS TIP: When seeing a new movie look up the original title on IMDB.com

最后的小建议：如果在IMDB网站看到新的电影，不妨你看看原版的名称

The translation sometimes does not correspond directly to the original. Find out what the original title really means. Ask yourself how the translation makes sense. What is the relation to the movie? You will never forget a new word that once it’s associated with an unforgettable movie. Works every time!

翻译有时候并不遵循原版。找出原来的电影名字，看看到底什么意思。然后想想这么翻译的意义，和电影有何相关性？看过一场难忘的电影，你绝对不会再忘记这里面的生词了，每次都这样做吧！
