I like reading 21st Century, but my teacher told me I’d better read more articles written by native authors. Do you think it’s a piece of good advice?
我喜欢读“二十一世纪报”,可我的老师叫我最好多读些以英语为母语的作者写的文章。您认为这是个好建议吗?
Of course, a great deal of 21st Century is written by native authors (like me, for example!), but I agree with your teacher that you should read as widely as you can. You don’t want to read pieces which are mainly about language and language learning, so try to read articles in general magazines (either local or international). Yes, your teacher has given you a good piece of advice.
当然，“二十一世纪报”上的许多文章都是以英语为母语的作者(比如像我)写的，但我同意你的老师的看法，你应该尽量广泛地阅读。你一定不想只是阅读有关语言和语言学习的文章，因此要试着读一些一般性的杂志(当地的或国际性的)。是的，你的老师给你的是个好建议。
