First of all, successful language learners are independent learners.
They do not depend on the book or the teacher;
they discover their own way to learn the language.
Instead of waiting for the teacher to explain, they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves.
They are good guessers who look for clues and form their own conclusion.

Someday in the future we may not need to have money in our pockets. Is life easier when people don’t need to carry any coins for currency at all? Is money heavy to carry? Is it safe to carry money? Maybe in the future each of us will have only one small plastic credit card. We will use it to buy all the things we now buy with money. We will not need money to pay for things.
Of course we may still have some of the same problems with cards that we now have with money. Sometimes we lose money. Maybe will lose the cards. People steal money. Maybe someone will take the card. Someone may even make a card that looks like our card. Since we can’t buy anything without our cards, the credit card may be no better than currency.
Is there something even easier to use than credit cards? All of us have a thumbprint. No two thumbprints are the same. Maybe someday the government will keep people’s thumbprints with a number. No person will have the same thumbprint or number. When you want to buy something you will put your t thumb on a machine or a computer. Each store or business will have one. Everyone’s thumbprint will be in the computers. It will be very difficult to lose our thumbprint. It will be difficult for someone to steal it or to make one like it.

The angry woman stood by the station. “ The railway owes me ?12,”she said to Harry Jenks, the booking clerk (订票员). “My ticket was for May 22nd, and there was no ship from Jersey that night. My daughter and I had to stay in a hotel. It cost me ?12.”
Harry was worried. He remembered selling the woman a return ticket. “Come into the office, madam,” he said, “I’ll just check the Jersey timetable for May 22nd.”
The woman and her little girl followed him inside. She was quite right, as Harry soon discovered. There was no sailing on May 22nd. How ever had he made such a big mistake? Wondering what to do, he smiled at the child. “You look healthy,” he said to her. “Did you have a nice holiday in Jersey?”
“Yes,” she answered. “The beach was beautiful. And I can swim too!”
“That’s fine,” said Harry. “My little girl can’t swim a bit yet. Of course, she’s only three-----”
“I’m four,” the child said proudly. “I’ll soon be four and a half.”
Harry turned to the mother. “I remember your ticket, madam,” he said. “But you didn’t get one for your daughter, did you?”
“Er, well-----” The woman looked at the child. “I mean-----she hasn’t started school yet. She’s only four.”
“A four-year-old child must have a ticket, madam. A child’s return to Jersey costs----let me see----?13.50. So if the railway pays your hotel bill, you will owe ?1.50. The law is the law, but since we have made a mistake-----”
