Although many Chinese students say that their knowledge of English grammar is good, most would admit that their spoken English is poor. Whenever I speak to a Chinese student, they always say,“My spoken English is poor.” 1.      I would like to suggest that there may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English.

First, they fail to find suitable words to express themselves due to a limited vocabulary.

2.___   However, you can speak with a limited vocabulary, if you choose a positive attitude. Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know.

3.   __  Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking because they are shy and nervous. Yet students should remember that their goal should be FLUENCY NOT ACCURACY. Your aim in writing is to be accurate following the rules for grammar and using the right words and spelling them correctly. However, in speaking your aim is fluency. You want to get your message across, to talk to someone in English, as quickly and as well as you can, even though sometimes you may use a wrong word or tense, but it doesn't matter. 4.      

The third reason is that not enough attention is paid to listening. You have one mouth but two ears! All that hearing is necessary for you to start speaking.

Fourth, most Chinese students are reactive rather than proactive language learners. Instead of actively seeking out opportunities to improve their spoken English they passively wait for speaking opportunities to come to them and wonder why their English always remains poor.

5.     

A. The person you are speaking to will understand you and make allowances for any mistakes he hears.

B. They may try to avoid making similar mistakes next time.

C. Obviously the better answer is to expand their vocabulary.

D. If you have this proactive outlook, then you will see English opportunities wherever you go.

E. However, their spoken English does not have to remain” poor”!

F. Second, they are afraid of making mistakes.

G. The second reason lies in the reluctance of using what has just been learned.

Here are a few tips we’ve put together to help you learn English well.

Speak, speak, speak

Practise speaking as often as you can—even speaking to yourself is good practice.

Try recording yourself whenever you can. Compare your pronunciation with the master version, see how you can do better and have another go. If you do this several times, you will find that each version is better than the last.

Why not learn with someone else?

It helps if you can learn with someone else. If you can persuade a friend or a family member to study with you, it will make you keep working.

Don’t get stuck by a word you don’t know.

Practise improvising(即兴的)ways of getting your meaning across when speaking spontaneously(本能地), even if you don’t know the exact words or phrases. Think of things you might want to say whenever you have spare time. Use facial expressions, hand movements, anything to get your meaning across.

Language learning is also about intuition(直觉).

Guesswork is an important way to learn a new language. When listening to recorded material, you aren’t expected to understand everything first round. If you play the same piece several times, you will most probably understand something new each time.

Build up your vocabulary.

A wide vocabulary is the key to successful language learning but don’t try to learn too much at once. It’s best to study frequently, for short periods of time. Take at most six or seven items of vocabulary and learn them. Put them into sentences to fix them in your mind, then come back to them later.

And above all, have fun!

1.Why should one have himself recorded when practicing speaking?

A. To improve his speaking.             B. To record his own progress.

C. To encourage others to start.           D. To compare himself with others.

2.In the writer’s opinion, which of the following is the most important in leaning English?

A. Speaking.      B. Pleasure.         C. Intuition.      D. Vocabulary.

3.It is implied in the passage that _______ is helpful when you are learning English.

A. body language            B. a good material

C. a good friend             D. a proper dictionary

4. According to the passage, one should ______ when you are learning English.

A. always work with other people        B. be able to guess everything new

C. often review what he has learnt      D. take little notice of grammar

When we read books we seem to enter a new world. This new world can be similar to the one we are living in, or it can be very    21   . Some stories are told   22   they were true. Real people who live in a  23  world do real things; in other words, the stories are about people just like us doing what we do. Other stories, such as the Harry Potter books, are not   24   . They are characters and creatures that are very different from us and do things that would be   25  for us.

But there is more to books and writing than this. If we think about it, even realistic writing is only   26   . How can we tell the difference between what is real and what is not real? For example, when we read about Harry Potter ,we  2 7   seem to learn something about the real world. And when Harry studies magic at Hogwarts, he also learns more about his real life than   28   . Reading, like writing, is an action. It is a way of   29   . When we read or write something ,we do much more than simple look at words on a page. We use our   30    --which is real—and our imagination—which is real in a different way --- to make the words come to life in our minds.

Both realism and fantasy(幻想)    31   the imagination and the “magic” of reading and writing to make us think. When we read    32  realistic, we have to imagine that the people we are reading about are just like us, even though we   33   that we are real and they are  34  . It sounds   35   ,but it works. When we read, we fill in missing information and   36   about the causes and effects of what a character does. We help the writer by   37   that what we read is like real life. In a way, we are writing the book, too.

Most of us probably don’t think about what is going on in our   38   when we are reading. We pick up a book and lose   39   in a good story, eager to find out what will happen next. Knowing how we feel   40   we read can help us become better readers, and it will help us discover more about the real magic of books.
