English

I learn it for…

• Passing the entrance examination( 高考 )

• It will be important while I am seeking a job some day

• English is fashionable( 时尚的 )

• Most importantly, I’ve totally fallen in love with this beautiful language

attitude

• Passion-we should pour our passion in studying a foreign language

• Importance-english is importance itself

• 1).We study spoken English so as to make oral communications, so this order of importance of oral English study should be followed: Fluency( 流利 ), Accuracy( 准确 ), and Appropriateness( 恰当 ). That is to say, we have to pay more attention to practical communicating ability instead of only laying(puting) emphasis( 重点 ) on the grammatical correctness.

• 2)Try to find some partners practicing oral English together and exchanging English study experience, widening our sight and improve interest in English.

• 3).If English partners are not easy to get, then we have to create an English environment ourselves by speaking English to ourselves.

• 4).This method is very effective and easy to insist on( 坚持 )—interpreting( 口译 ) Chinese-English novels or books. First we read the Chinese parts and then try to interpret them into English and then compare our interpretation with the original versions( 译本 ) in the novels or books so that we can find out the mistakes, shortcomings( 不足 ) and progresses in our interpretation.

• 5).Interpreting what you hear---Changing Roles: Three people make a group: one speaks Chinese, one speaks English acting as the foreigner, one acts as interpreter. Then change roles. This is a good interpreting training method and is good for studying from one another. In addition, it may improve the responding ability and speed .

• 6)If possible, we may read some English tongue twisters loudly and quickly to train our oral cavity( 口腔 ) muscle and tongues suitable for English pronunciation.

• A big black bug bit the back of a big black bear. The big black bear bit back the big black bug.

• This fish has a thin fin; That fish has a fat fin ； This fish is a fish that has a thinner fin than that fish.

• 7)watch movies or dramas with subtitles for the first time, and without subtitles for the second time or more.

• 8)Dare to show off

• Nobody is naturally perfect, making mistakes is something usual. Don’t be afraid of losing face, just easily speak english.
