Does reading Chinese sentences improve my speaking? If I do not have anyone to practice speaking with, will reading Mandarin help me speak Mandarin?
I’m Chinese and currently studying English.  If you're just reading, your progress is probably very slow.

I think that the best way to improve your skill is to have conversation with people.


  你好，朋友，我是中国人，我正在学习英文。
  如果你只是阅读，可能你的进展很慢。
  我觉得提升你能力的最好办法是跟别人交流。
