It means if we practice unfamiliar things again and again, we’ ll be able to perform it perfectly. The practice of learning English is a good example. We are not living in an English speaking country. So, in order to learn it well, we need extra practice, such as reading English books, going to English corners, or municating with foreigners. Only sitting at the desk cannot lead to the mastery of English. As another example, if we want to be skilled in using the puter, we also need to practice using it. Some children bee little experts in puter, just because they play with it everyday. On the contrary, if we just stick to books, we will still feel confused when using puters. Judging from the evidence offered, we might safely draw the conclusion that practice makes perfect. 199706 Directions: For this part, you are allowed thirty minutes to write a position on the topic Getting to Know the World Outside the Campus.
