How to improve English?

20 suggestions for learning English well

The first trick: listen to the English weather forecast.

Some teaching tapes deliberately slow down the speaking speed in order to cooperate with beginners' learning, which is not enough for English listening training. If you listen to English at normal speed, beginners will feel at a loss. Although English weather forecast is fast, its vocabulary is simple and fixed, its content is simple, it is likely to be repeated, and it can be confirmed at any time in life. It is a good textbook for listening comprehension.

The second trick: Listen to the English broadcast of Radio China International.

China Radio International has an hour-long English program every morning from 7: 00 to 8: 00, at noon1till 12. The content includes news clippings at home and abroad and various series of special reports. In addition to domestic announcers who are fluent in English, there are also recorded interviews with foreigners or visitors on a certain topic. The content is extensive, but the vocabulary is simple and the speech speed is moderate, which can be used to train or improve English listening.

The third key: make good use of tapes to exercise listening and speaking ability.

Some learners are always used to listening to tapes while reading, and use tapes as an auxiliary tool for reading, which can't achieve the purpose of practicing listening. Tapes should be based on the training of listening and speaking ability. Learners should choose listening tapes suitable for their abilities, and don't rush to achieve success, so as not to be frustrated. Listen to the tape again and again first. At first, just grab the outline. Listen to it a few times, and you will know more and more details. People with poor hearing can read the text first, and then

Concentrate on understanding the meaning of each paragraph and sentence. This kind of practice helps to cultivate your concentration in listening and make your listening progress quickly.

The fourth measure: Only by listening to English at a normal speed can we speed up the progress of listening.

Many teaching materials of broadcasting and listening always deliberately slow down their speech in order to match the level of listeners or learners. Although this is an understandable alternative, it will also have some bad side effects. For example: 1. Accustomed to slow-paced English, it is difficult to adapt to or even understand the English they speak at normal speed in actual communication with foreigners. When you deliberately slow down, you usually read every word in a sentence clearly, but in normal conversation, there will be many phenomena of assimilation, reduction and continuous reading. Therefore, listening to English at a normal speed is extremely important for listening and speaking.

The fifth key: learn the original English from the Internet.

Now the network is very developed, and there are many English learning resources on it. Listening, speaking, reading and writing can all be done online and can be repeated indefinitely until you learn it. However, the resources on the internet are also mixed, so you should find a website suitable for your own study. How to find a valuable learning website is actually not very difficult. Now many websites have collections of resources, such as two pages devoted to newspapers and magazines in English-speaking countries.

The twentieth trick: forget the dictionary for a while.

When reading English novels or newspapers, we will inevitably encounter some new words. If you always stop to look up the dictionary, it will be disappointing and your interest in reading will be stifled. Therefore, we suggest that you sometimes forget the dictionary temporarily.

First of all, the reading materials you choose should be equivalent to your English level and interesting to you. Just turn over a few pages and browse. If you can understand more than 80% of each page, you can conclude that this book is suitable for you.

Secondly, when you encounter new words in reading, don't look them up in the dictionary. It's enough to guess from the context first. After reading it from beginning to end, go to the dictionary for further study.

Read this kind of books, read more and read quickly. Students or friends might as well borrow from each other, which can not only save money, but also form the habit of fast reading.
