In the coming autumn and winter, you'll see a new colour world using the theme of imperial and royal . Why do I say it? It is because most garments producers will use the heavy colourways on their products to bring out the theme. They will also use the bright colours; such as bright yellowish green, gold, and sharp red. Besides they will try to design clothes by mixing and matching the beautiful cherry red and grey, shocking blue and soft light yellow to create a whole series of design. Although all these colours are bright and sharp, the clever designers and garment producers will give their garments a harmonious and freshy look. All the above colourways together with fine cuttings will help create smarter outlooks.
On the other hand, the leather goods designers and producers are creating some unique looks for men and women. They chose the tranditional black, deep reddish brown, and some simple dark brown colours for the main colourways. The choices are save and welcome by most customers. But they make the products look different by integrating sporty outlook into leather garments. So collarless biker jackets with zipper fastening have been the most popular style in the market since this season. The other great styles, such as the double breast button jacket with belt details are favoured in the market as well. Besides, great designer like Yves Saint Larent used the soft fresh green onto his design of the smart biker jackets. This proves the sporty outlooks are important and favored in the leather field this autumn and winter.

A Email Message
Just want to tell you that I've downloaded your MP3 file successfully.
Before I received you file, I've pronounced the words and read the paragraphs quite a lot. The reading was really helpful. It helps me understand the structure of the message and the difficult part of the message. So when I listen to your reading, I can pay more attention to the "linkage sound" between the words. I'll try to imitate the ways you pronounced words and read phrases, so to improve myself. I think it is not easy to achieve fluency in a short time but I'll try my best. So thank you very much for your help!

The way of listening to the vocabulary continuously
I've followed the new way to listen to the vocabulary items for about 2-3 times a day. I found that simply listening to the tape while reading the book helped me learn. Here I I'd like to record the way I learn them in the past few days.
Monday Night
Read the articlel & the vocabulary items.
Tusday Morning
Listened to the vocabulary items again. I could only imagine some known words but couldn't realize the unknown words.
Tuesday Night - Read the book again & pronounced the vocabulary words. Try to pay more attention to the unknown words.
Wednesday Morning
Listened to the vocabulary words for 3 times. I can imagine most of the vocabulary words in the book while listening to them.
Wed. Night - Read the book again. Tried to memorize the unknown word.
Thursday Morning
Listened to the vocabulary words again for 3 times. Found that I could imagine the unknown words but not sure the pronunciation. I tried to spell them & thought that it could help myself to pronounce them.
Tuesday Night - Read & pronounced all the vocabulary words for 3 times.
Friday Morning
Morning - Listened to the vocabulary words for 3 times. I could recall and visualise almost all the words.
Night - Read & pronounced all the vocabulary words.
Saturday
Only listened to the words for few times. Started to feel bored.....sorry! Wanted to start the next article but I knew I hadn't done very well on the 1st group of words. I was thinking if I needed to recite all the words.
