英语口语 此生能遇见你,已然 幸福得一塌糊涂 Jimmy's Note 吉米老师前言:学好英语口语的5大秘诀! . 不要让热情在最开始就耗尽 When the adventure of a new language starts, your enthusiasm knows no bounds. On the one hand, that’s something very positive. On the other hand, it’s important not to rely on enthusiasm alone. When the newness and initial excitement has worn off, you might not know where to find the motivation to learn. That’s why it’s necessary to steer your initial exuberance in the right direction, and not let it disappear like a flash in the pan. 当新鲜感和一开始的兴奋褪去,你可能就找不到学习的动机了。这就是为什么将你最初的情感控制在一个正确的方向是必要的,不要让它如同昙花一现般消失。 It’s better to take it slow - tame your enthusiasm and make sure that learning a language becomes a regular daily activity. 放慢节奏会更好——控制住你的热情度,确保学习语言成为一项有规律的日常活动。 Tips Steer your initial exuberance in the right direction and make sure that learning a language becomes a regular daily activity. Ten minutes a day is better than full-on for a week and then nothing after that. 正确控制你最初的热情,确保学习语言成为一项有规律的日常活动。比起将一个星期的时间塞得满满当当,每天花十分钟的效果会更好。 The benefits of a bad memory We’re talking to all those people who think that memorization is the key to everything, to everyone who boasts about their photographic memory, and to everyone who gets stuck on vocabulary lists. Don’t get us wrong: a good memory is definitely helpful, but one should not forget (no pun intended) to use and train it the right way. 别误会我们:好的记忆力固然很有帮助,但是一个人不要忘记,要用正确的方法来使用并培养它。 Use your memory and make it your ally. Learn phrases and words with which you can make associations or create mnemonic devices. And when a word doesn’t seem to want to come out, find an alternative or paraphrase what you mean. In this way, you don’t only get your synapses firing, but you can also remember things better and for longer periods of time. Try it for yourself! 用这样的方式,你就不用太伤脑筋,却又可以更好、更长久地记住东西。试试吧! Tips Your memory is an important ally if you use it intelligently. 如果你能够聪明地运用你的记忆力,它将会成为你重要的助手 Nobody's perfect 人无完人 No one is perfect… and you shouldn’t try to be! One of the first obstacles you encounter on the path to “fluent mastery” of a language is the absurd and premature demand you place on yourself to speak with perfect and error-free pronunciation and grammar. Of course, you can and will get there with a lot of practice, but it shouldn’t be the highest priority when you’re getting to know a completely new language. 当然,你可以,也应该通过大量的练习做到这一点,但是当你学习一门完全陌生的语言时,你不必将其作为头号任务。 Tips Give yourself a break and don’t be afraid to make mistakes! You’ll soon see the progress that’ll bring you closer to your goal. 给自己休息的时间,不要害怕犯错!你很快就会看到使你接近目标的进步! All work and no play It’s exactly you – so tirelessly and steadfastly learning – who we’re speaking to here: Are you finally going to get up out of that chair, or do you want to put down roots right where you’re sitting? You’re diligent and persistent. You’ve used your memory and your desire to learn in the best way possible. You’ve trusted yourself to speak to people because you understand that we all learn from making mistakes. And now? Now it’s time to give yourself a reward! 你尽可能以最好的方式运用自己的记忆力和学习的欲望。你相信自己能够在人们面前说外语,因为你明白失败乃成功之母。现在呢?给自己奖励的时间到了! When you set such a big goal as learning a new language, it’s important now and then to pat yourself on the back and enjoy the success you’ve achieved. Watch a film, sing a song at the top of your lungs, or listen to the radio… but, of course, in the language you’re learning! When you couple language learning with activities that bring you joy, you’ll learn more effectively and remember what you’ve learned more easily. 看看电影、放声歌唱、或者听听广播······但是,当然是和你所学语言相关的!当你将学习语言和快乐的活动结合在一起的时候,你会更有效地学习,并更轻松地记住所学的内容。 Tips You don’t have to learn like a crazy person. There should also be time to combine the enjoyable with the practical, and have fun while learning! 你不需要像一个疯子一样地去学习。只要将兴趣与实践结合,快乐地学习! The goal is always within sight Learn the art of always keeping your goal within sight. Of course, anyone could say that learning for learning’s sake is the ideal pictureof education… that goes without saying. But if you want to reach the end of the road, it’s important that you’re aware of why you stepped onto the path in the first place. 但如果你想走到路的尽头,明白自己当初为什么走上这条路是很重要的。 Keep your goal in sight and imagine that with every tiny step forward, the path to your goal gets shorter and the top of the mountain gets closer. 设置现实的目标,想象你每前进一小步,通往目标的路就越短,你距离山顶就越近。 Tips Keeping a goal in sight increases motivation. Before you start, set a goal! 通过设立现实的目标来激发动力。在开始之前,设立目标! 免费送哈利波特1-7部!
