It is a difficult language to master, just like Chinese. I made a few suggestions based on my～experience. One involved a very valuable fact which I learned from my high school Latin and Greek teacher, Dr. Smith．He is a gifted linguist （语言学家），and has an amazing ability to memorize things, like poetry, essays, speeches, etc．His advice to us students is that for memorization purposes, there is forty minutes each day in which our memory is more receptive than it is during the other 23 hours and 20 minutes. This 40-minute super memory period is divided into two parts: the 20 minutes before we sleep, hnd the 20 minutes after we first awake. The theory supporting this is pretty simple. First, the last information we input into our brain before bed has a better chance of taking root than information obtained during the noisy daytime; and，second, our mind is free of disturbance when we first awake in the morning一so more receptive to inputs, like a blank slate（石板）． I took the advice to heart and it served me well in my school years．In my university days, our Chinese teacher would assign us 200 new vocabulary words each day, on which we would be quizzed the following day. Without the magic 40-minute technique, theres no way I would have passed those daily quizzes. As far as language study goes, its not only useful for memorizing vocabulary. Its also a very useful window of time to listen to the language were studying even with background noise, and even if its at a level we find difficult to understand. It might be audio（声音的）language study aids, or just radio, TV or whatever. Beyond our years of formal education, memory skills are hugely important in
