How to learn esp


Nowadays people have to cross very high requests, especially at studing. Scholars have to learn a lot of new information, to study hard subjects and to do difficult tasks. For these reasons it is becoming more and more complicated to learn ESP, what is one of the most important thing for good specialist. I'm telling this not without reason, it was noticed that learning new words and definitions takes long time and endeavour, to make it easier there were found some methods how to do that.

First of all, you have to change your life a little — do crazy things like talking to yourself in English or spending your evening reading a dictionary. In order to do these things, and do them regularly, you have to enjoy doing them. If you are like most learners and don't feel like doing these things, you will have to work on your motivation.

Secondly, example sentences are more important than definitions: if you want to improve your speaking/writing ability, read the example sentences in your dictionary. They show you how to use a word and they program your brain with correct English.

Moreover, if you want to avoid making mistakes you should study pronunciation (all the English sounds and at least basic English words) before you open your mouth and get lots of English sentences into your head (by reading and listening) before you open your mouth or write in English. To avoid mistakes, you need to follow good examples, also when you speak or write, be careful, slow, and use simple language.


To conclude, one of the most important thing for learning
english for special purposes is motivation. Strong resolution will keep you up going to the intention and some methods can make it much easier, so don't waste your time and good luck !

Psychology of shopping


Shopping can be one of the most amzing and the worst thing at the same time. There people who pray and beg God to help to build a new mall centre and there people who can't stand it at all, so lets rethink why it is so paradoxical.

First of all, shopping is very popular ant gives satisfacion for human beings because of very tricky atmosphere in shops. There are a lot of beautiful advertisements, music that relax us, it is fitted confortable so if we get tired during the shop or if we want to eat we can do it at the same place, also there are a lot of colourful things that attract and other entertainments so usually shopping means not only buying but also leisure.

Secondly, shopping can give us ralaxation because of spending money for buying thinks. Some people believe that when we buy something we sweeten our ego, we feel pleasure that we spend money for ourselfs, because usually going to shops when someone else need smth isn't so welcome.

On the other hand, malls also can give unpleasant feelings, f.e when we really want to buy smth we can't decide what to buy because of variety and usually it doesn't mean that we will find want we want despite of diversity. Some people believe that shopping takes away money from them because they often buy things that are optional by being affected of the atmosphere.

In conclusion, it depends on situation and on persanality what kind of feeling gives shopping. Sometimes we want to spend our free time in malls and sometimes we fluster around the shop because we can't find what we want.
