在学英语的四项基本技能“听”、“说”、“读”和“写”中，“听”是排在第一位的，由此可见听力的重要性非同一般。据统计，人们在语言交际中45％的时间用于听，说占30％，读占16％，写占9％。因此要想学好一门外语，不仅要进行阅读和写作能力的训练，更要重视听说能力的培养。 第四课、旅行（Travel) ▶How many places have you traveled to?▶I’ve visited all the provinces throughout my country.▶Who do you usually go with?▶I often go with my family, sometimes with my best friends.▶What’s your favorite tourist attraction?▶That would be Venice city in Italy.
