教初中生一口流利英语的七大法则

教初中生一口流利英语的七大法则

　　I’ve spent the last few years traveling and living abroad， and during that time I’ve talked to a lot of people who spoke English as a foreign language.

　　我花了几年的时间在国外旅游和生活，那段时间我同很多把英语作为外语的人交谈过。

　　After talking to thousands of foreigners in English I’ve noticed several things that they do that hurt their progress as a language learner. Here are the top 7：

　　同成千上万个外国人用英语交流后，我发现作为一个语言学者，他们总能做出一些损害他们学习进步的事情来。这里主要有七点；

　　1. Don’t Be too Ashamed to Speak

　　1. 不要太害羞以至于不能开口说

　　There is only one way to learn how to speak English， and that is to open your mouth and speak English！ The only way you will ever get better at speaking is by speaking， and speaking a lot！

　　学习怎样说英语只有一种方法就是张开你的嘴，说英语！唯一能让让你的口语变好的方法就是说英语，说的越多越好！

　　Courage is resistance to fear， mastery of fear – not absence of fear. – Mark Twain

　　勇敢是抵抗恐惧，克服恐惧，而不是逃避恐惧——马克·吐温

　　You can make excuses for why you don’t want to speak， like saying that you’re too embarrassed to speak， but these won’t get you any closer to your goal of achieving English fluency. It doesn’t matter if you have no vocabulary， or if your pronunciation isn’t perfect， you need to open your mouth and speak if you want to improve.

　　你可以为你为什么不想说英语找借口，就像你说你太尴尬了以至于不愿意说，但这并不会让你实现口语流利的目标。没有词汇量是没有关系的，或者你的发音不是很完美，如果你想提高口语，你只需要张的嘴说出来。

　　What ever you do， don’t say that you can’t speak English because this will become a self-fulfilling prophecy. By believing that you can’t speak English you close your mind to trying， and never give yourself the opportunity to improve. The only way to improve your English is to practice it， no matter how bad you may or may not be at it.

　　无论你做什么也不要说你不会说英语，因为这将会成为事实的预言。你相信自己不会说英语，你就会封锁你的大脑不去尝试说，也不给自己机会去提高。提高英语的唯一方法就是不断的练习，无论你的口语有多差。

　　2. Don’t Be Afraid of Making Mistakes

　　2. 不要害怕犯错

　　Another thing you shouldn’t do when speaking English is to be afraid of making mistakes. Part of being human is making mistakes and sooner or later you’re going to have to accept the fact that you’re not perfect and that you will always make mistakes. The only way you can avoid making mistakes is by not trying at all. If you follow this approach you’ll avoid making mistakes， but you’ll never improve either.

　　说英语时另外一件不应该做的事情就是害怕犯错。大部分的人都在犯错，迟早要接受你并不完美、总会犯错的事实。你能避免犯错的唯一方法就是不再尝试。如果你跟着这个方法走，你将避免犯错，但是你再也不会提高了。

　　I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times， I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed. – Michael Jordan

　　在我的职业生涯中，我投篮不中超过9000次，输过300多场比赛。曾有26次人们对我抱有期望相信我能在紧要关头挽回败绩但我却没能做到。在我人生中，我一次又一次的失败，这正是我成功的原因。—迈克尔·乔丹

　　This may seem counter-intuitive， but you should try making as many mistakes as possible. If you are making mistakes that means you are actually speaking English and improving. If you aren’t making mistakes every day then you aren’t speaking enough. Of course， you shouldn’t intentionally make mistakes， and you should try to be aware of your mistakes so you can learn from them and improve your skills.

　　这可能看起来是违反直觉的，但是你应该尽可能的尝试多犯错。如果你在犯错，这实际上意味着你的口语在提高。如果你每天都没有犯错，说明你说的还不够。当然，你不应该故意犯错，你应该尝试着去意识你的错误，这样你才能从中学习并提高你的口语技能。

　　Grammar is the last thing you should be worried about when speaking English. You don’t need to have perfect grammar in order to communicate with someone in English. Native speakers aren’t going to judge you for having bad grammar， they are going to be more focused on understanding your meaning and continuing the conversation. As long as you speak clearly and confidently， it doesn’t matter if you use the wrong article， adjective ending or sentence order.
