How do you improve your spelling?1.Just as we learn spoken language by hearing lots of people speaking, we learn written language, including spelling, by reading what a lot of people write. Spelling is not about how a word sound, it’s about how it looks on the page, which means you have to look at a lot of words on the page to learn the correct spelling about it.

Make a list of your commonly misspelled words.2.When you get a chance, look it up and put the correct spelling next to it.

3. If you look it up more than once, add it to your personal list.

Write! Write! Write! 4.When you look it up how to spell a word, write it down several times in a row and do it again a day or two later. 5.Write a blog, a journal, e-mails, a novel, anything that will keep you using words and pay special attention as you write to the words that come up wrong.

A. There is no substitute(代替) for reading a lot.

B. Put a mark next to every word you look up in the dictionary.

C. Those of us who spell well have a hard time explaining it, too.

D. Let others read your writings, and ask them to circle misspelled words.

E. You’re trying to build up the motor memory of writing it correctly spelled.

F. The only way to really learn a word is to use it, and that counts for spelling as much as for learning its meaning.

G. When you catch yourself spelling the same word wrong over and over, write it down somewhere.

One spring, when I was 10, during one of my father’s layoffs (失業(yè)), I could tell my mother was unhappy. I decided to cheer her up by buying her a special Mother’s Day gift.

One day after school I rode my bike to the Agins, which, I learned years later, was known for its high-end fashions (時(shí)尚) and styles. I introduced myself to Sylvia Agins, telling her I was looking for a Mother’s Day present.

“Do you think she’d like a purse?” she asked. I told her. I thought she might.

She took out an Italian handbag made of leather. She asked me what I thought, and I told her that my mom would like it.

“How much money do you have?” she asked.

“Twelve dollars,” I said.

“You’re in luck,” she told me. “It’s only $11. You have a dollar left over for the card.” She gift-wrapped the purse and thanked me for my business, and I rode off home with the package under my arm.

When my mother opened the gift the next Sunday morning, she asked in an accusing tone, “Where did you get this?”

“I bought it at the Agins. It cost me $11.” I said.

My mother was shocked into silence.

It wasn’t until many years later, when I learned that the purse was worth several hundred dollars, that I appreciated just how wonderful Sylvia Agins had been to me. I always felt bad that I never had a chance to properly thank her.

“You know, my son, what really amazes me to this day,” my mother said, “Letting you have the purse for just a few dollars was unbelievable enough. But the fact that she let you leave the store with a dollar for the card was a touch of kindness that I’ll never forget.”
