English Anyone??

"I suppose it was inevitable that as my word-base broadened, I could for the first time pick up a book and read and now begin to understand what the book was saying. Anyone who has read a great deal can imagine the new world that opened." This statement by Malcolm X sums up our ability to read and write. As we grow, our vocabulary becomes more expanded; we also learn through social interaction. Growing up in the United States has made me more accustomed to the English language and the way it is used. There are many things that help me read and write using proper English rules. I first think about what I will write and then make a list of topics. Many times I write an outline to get my ideas organized and then I begin to write. I have learned that being prepared makes writing a lot easier.
