Nowadays many students overlook the spelling in english study.The reason for this phenomenon lies in several aspects. Firstly, the students don't spend much time in reading and memorizing the words they learned in the lessons carefully.Heavy study load takes much of their time. Secondly, Many of them think that reading and listening is more important in the english study while spelling is of little use.To change this situation, I think we should begins from the following items. On one hand, ease the study burden to make the students assign their study time more reasonably. On the other hand, change the english study ideas of the students and let them know that the spelling is the basic skill to learn a kind of language and also very important.In a word, to learn English well, everyone should put spelling, reading,listening and writing in the same position.
