I have received the letter of admission from Harvard University. This means I am going to do my doctor degree program this fall in America. After years of hard work, I know have finally realized my dream of being able to work in the most advanced laboratory in the world with the most outstanding top scientists in the field of genetic engineering.　　I am now very busy preparing for this trip of utmost importance in my life. I spend most of my time improving my oral and aural English. You know I have a good mand of written English. In fact, I have written my papers in English, some of which have been published abroad　　already. But my listening and speaking ability of English is far behind. I am afraid that this poor mand of listening and speaking will hinder the effective munication once I am abroad. Can you just suggest any good way of improving my oral English skills quickly? I am a bit anxious recently.　　Anyway, I will try my best.　　Hope to hear from you soon!　　Yours,　　Li Ming　　Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)　　1.
