Consistent practice can result in perfect performance. Practice is of great importance in doing anything. Take my personal experience in learning English for example. Three years ago, I had great trouble in listening comprehension. I couldnt understand the teacher in class, let alone tapes. This was obviously due to my lack of practice in junior high school. To improve my listening, I started to read English aloud every morning and listen to tapes and radio every evening. My efforts paid off and in the final examination I did an excellent job in listening. I strongly believe that practice makes perfect.
