When it&amp;#39;s too fast for &lt;br /&gt;you, when you can&amp;#39;t understand it, that is exactly when &lt;br /&gt;you NEED to listen to it!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How can you improve if you don&amp;#39;t listen and practise?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you were a baby, did you understand your own &lt;br /&gt;language? When you were 3 weeks old, or 2 months, or 1 &lt;br /&gt;year, did you understand everything? Of course not! But &lt;br /&gt;you *learned* to understand by *listening*. Think about &lt;br /&gt;it. You learned to understand your own language by &lt;br /&gt;listening, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. After that, &lt;br /&gt;you learned to speak. Then you learned to read. And then &lt;br /&gt;you learned to write. *But listening came first!*&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
