Long, long ago there was no zero. To write the number sixty-three people wrote 63. To write six hundred and three, people wrote 6 3. The space between six and three was there to mean “not any tens”. Sometimes people did not remember the space. It was hard to see and read.
Later people used a dot to hold the space. Six hundred and three looked like this 6?3. But the dot was hard to see. So people put a circle around it like this 6⊙3. Then people could see the dot. They remembered the space. At last, only the circle around the dot was used. It was like a zero. This is one story of how the zero came to be used.
Now zero has many important uses. Zero tells how many. Can you tell some other ways of using zero?

假如你班举行以“How to learn English well” 为主题的英语讨论会,请你根据以下认识写一份发言稿。
有些同学认为只要记住语法书的条文和背熟词汇表(Word lists)就可以学好英语。你认为这是不够的,还必须通过实践,也就是需进行大量的听说读写训练。平时尽可能多读,多听,课堂内外多练英语。用英语记日记,写信和写短文也很有用。(字数100个词左右)

Ⅴ. One possible version:
Some students think that they can learn English well if they remember the grammar rules and learn by heart long lists of words. But I don't quite agree with them. I don't think it enough only to learn rules from a grammar book or remember as many words as we can. We must learn by listening, speaking, reading and writing. We should practice speaking English both in and out of class, and reading and listening whenever possible. Besides, it is also helpful to keep diaries and write letters or short stories in English. Only in this way can we learn English well.
