常听到有人抱怨，说我学英语这么多年了，可总有原地打转的感觉。怎么才能实现突破，达到“高峡出平湖”的境界呢？我们当年也有过同样的苦衷，所幸仗着一身牛脾气，不怕摔打，摸着石头过河，竟也突破敌人海陆空层层围剿，胜利到达彼岸。庆幸之余，在这里我们想把自己的探索奋斗经历讲出来给大家听听。如果有人从中得到鼓励，启发，发现有可借鉴的东西再好不过。如果没有也不妨，自当我自乐有方，自己玩过家家。诸位看官大可不必为我等叹息：“哎，这么好的孩子钻了牛角尖儿，也就这么废了”。

　　治病当治根，治水须及源。诸位有没有过玩什么上瘾的经历？上了瘾便不愁有学不会的了，只愁没有学不会的。热爱是可以培养的，全是个态度问题。如果你对英语没有热爱，则什么祖传秘药良方也救不了你。学得时间越长，抵触情绪越重。想想，本来就是上坡路，再不断给自己背上加码，情绪低落，骂骂咧咧，要上得去才怪呢。就象包办婚姻，如果不喜欢对方但又没法休了，与其恨得咬牙切齿，不如找找对方优点，即使不能相爱，过个安稳日子还是可以的。 话说回来了，英语再怎么不济，也落不到那份儿上。

　　废话少说。怎么才能喜欢上英语呢(或更一般说，喜欢上任何语言呢)？道理很简单，你怎么会对中文产生兴趣呢？ 如果花上七八年不干别的光分析语法，你还能喜欢上中文，那你这个人就没救了。大多数人你得扔给他一本好看的小说，剩下的你就用不着担心了，如果有词，有话不懂，他自己会想尽办法搞懂。如果真上瘾了，你夺下他手里的书，他会跟你拼命。你的英语能达到什么水平，在很大程度上取决于你的瘾有多大。下面的问题自然是： 你说得轻巧，读英语小说，谈何容易！这个我下面谈。另一个问题是，你说，我根本不想学那么多，我连搞文的都不是，要那么多英语干什么用，又不能当饭吃。这是一碗水和一桶水的关系。和跳高一样，你要想跳过一米五，你心里的目标和实际努力要达到的高度就要高于一米五。如果你一心想打擦边球，这球十有八九出界。只有炉火纯青的的高手才能指哪儿打哪儿。何况语言不过是个习惯。怎么能培养习惯呢？自然是接触越多，重复越多越好。

　　有多少底子可以开始看小说呢？ 如果你英语已经学了差不多有高中水平或更高，对读本书还没信心，我只能说是教育方式的失败。当然小说跟小说很不同，难易程度不一。你不会一上来就能啃得动Hawthorn的The Scarlet Letter 或 Henry James的 The Ambassadors。循序渐进才会效果最佳。可读的东西还是很多的。开始读报刊杂志不是好办法。难度大且内容较小说枯燥得多，学到的东西往往过偏，语言经常不如小说精致典雅 (几个小时内必须写出来的东西显然没法和坐家里写上几年的东西相提并论，而且，大多数情况下，无才可去补苍天的才沦落下界----记者的最大愿望就是辞了工作，回家写书) 再说报刊杂志上的文章没法口语化，涉及日常用语的机会也少的可怜。

　　本人当年学习英语的条件比现在差远了，可以说要什么没什么。没人指导，只有很有限的阅读材料。我其实并没有什么出众的语言才能，有的只是一股势不可挡的激情，热爱。

　　我是从读小说简写本开始的。我记得读了两三本简写本，其中有马克*吐温的<汤母历险记>，还有莎士比亚戏剧故事<威尼斯商人>。这类书的特点是，语言适中，疑难点有注释，读起来快，且保留了故事的精彩之处。读完这几本以后马上就觉得不过瘾了。于是乎，大叫一声，“孩儿，拿真家伙来，让老夫练上一练” 真家伙来了，拿起来耍上半个回合，一声长叹，“真家伙果然名不虚传，着实沉甸甸的”。可一想“我看过英文小说了“这话的份量，还有什么克服不了的困难吗？ 就这么着，我一步一个脚印地走过来了。不贪快 (这并不难，想快也快不起来)，重享受(好看的片段一读再读)，读得有滋有味的。 我印象最深的有三，四本书：最先读的是Jane Austen的<傲慢与偏见>(任何喜欢张爱玲的读者都不会失望，当然，我当年根本没听说过张爱玲)，Wilkie Collins的<月亮宝石> ， 还有<一千零一夜故事集>。 奇怪的是，我的印象里最难读的英语书不是任何上述著作，而是一本数学专业书，我清清楚楚地记得我在图书馆坐了整整一下午读了还不满一页。 几乎一半的词要查词典。那是最后一次读得这么艰苦，过了这个坎儿，速度越来越快，兴趣也越来越高。当你读懂一页英文书时，那喜悦跟老农出门捡粪捡回一根金条来差不离。

　　我可以告诉你，自力更生看懂自己想看的东西跟看懂一篇课文感觉完全不一样，特别是你知道那东西不是专为学英语写的，而是为千百万英语是母语的人写的。你要想把一个事业长期进行下去，最好的鼓励就是不断看到你努力的成果。看懂英语书的奖励是再美不过的了----说是人间仙境也不为过，我还没体验过比这更美妙的事情。很多年过去了，我现在读英语书远比读中文书舒服，也快的多(中文退化，惭愧)。不是天赋问题，而是努力和爱好程度。现在要书有书，要声像有声像，有了问题上网就问，甚至请来洋人手把手地教，再学不好实在没借口。
