Let's compare two English learners, Lora and Julie. Lora is a typical English learner with an evidently low level of motivation. To be specific, she is $\underline{1}$ to all English homework and has just occasional moments of high motivation. She only studies English the day before her test or when she feels $\underline{2}$ by the inability to communicate freely with an English speaker. In other words, her $\underline{3}$ pushes her to improve her English. However, this never lasts long. Even when she spends two whole days before an exam studying with a(n) $\underline{4}$ effort, it's still inadequate. She forgets 90 percent of the things she has learned within a month, which means she hasn't $\underline{5}$ the knowledge. This is not at all surprising because the $\underline{6}$ of our short-term memory is short, and we need to review lessons all the time; otherwise, we just forget them.
Now let's look at another English learner, Julie. She has been reading abundant English stories written in $\underline{7}$ versions, believing it will be beneficial. She reads different stories almost every day for 30 minutes to $\underline{8}$ her vocabulary. She has bought an English dictionary and uses it to look up English words whose $\underline{9}$ meanings are unfamiliar to her. It was hard for her to study regularly at the beginning since every sentence was a challenge. Fortunately, now she can read much faster. Because she reads regularly, she forgets less than other English learners, and her English $\underline{10}$ keeps increasing. She will soon be able to read newspapers and other materials written for native speakers.
