老师：Hello boys and girls. Nice to meet you. I'm Miss Liu from Hongguo Middle School. Welcome to this lesson. Today we are going to learn Unit 4, Life on Mars, study skills. Hello, boys and girls. How are you doing with your English study? How do you know that? We may have an examination, do a questionnaire, use computers and so on. When you know what you are good at, you find out your strength. When you know what you are not good at, you may find your weaknesses. Then what other ways can we use to know about ourselves? We can do a self assessment. Pay attention to self. Self refers to a person. So self assessment always refers to the process of judging your own progress, achievement and etcetera. And after that, we can make plans. Our friend Kitty wants to find out how she is doing with her English study now. Let's listen and tick.
学生：Hello, I'm Katie. I like English very much. I often speak English in class. I enjoy talking with others in English. Listening is a bit difficult, so I sometimes answer listening questions correctly.
学生：The first problem is the vocabulary. It's hard for me to remember new words. I usually spend an hour every day to read new words, but I often make spelling mistakes. I'm thinking about ways to improve it.
学生：The second problem is grammar. There are so many rules and they are so boring. I cannot learn new grammar rules. Well. I read English books when I'm free and sometimes I get good results in tests.

老师：The third aspect, it's grandma. She finds it difficult. The false aspect is listening. She could sometimes listen to questions, play, and what's her plan? Let's read her plan and find it out.
老师：I often speak English well in class, but I still need to practice more. I need to work harder to learn new words and grammar rules. I plan to copy the new words in my notebook and read them every morning. I plan to remember 5 new words every day. Grammar rules are difficult, so I will keep an English diary and try to use the new grammar rules I have learnt. I plan to watch English TV programs every weekend in order to improve
