英语口语五步法

zhangyl

第一步：大量背诵原汁原味的单句、对话、生活习语。
第二步：把每天背诵过的素材反复消化，借助想像力，身临其境把它们表演出来。
第三步：写日记。这个习惯看上去练习的是写作，其实它更是练习口语的妙法。当你动笔的同时，你的大脑正在激烈地做着英文体*。用英文进行思维是高级的口语训练方法。
第四步：大量阅读报刊、杂志及各种故事、杂文，之后将它们复述出来。(超级提示：是“复述”而非“背诵”。)同一篇文章的复述工作应该反复滚动。
第五步：一年左右逐渐过渡到用英文进行日常的思维活动。每当遇到不会的词、句就记录在本子上，集中解决，并定时更新、复习。

SKILLS TO BETTER LISTENING

Making predictions: Before you start your listening, try predicting what you will hear. Training yourself to be one step ahead of the speakers enables you to be familiar with a particular topic quickly. Although you may not get the exact words, you have the framework of the topic.
How to predict

Use your background knowledge. What do you already know about the topic ?
Think of questions that listening materials might provide answers for.
Create a spidergram which shows everything you know about a particular topic.
Pay attention to voice emphasis   People usually speak with stress. The position of stress is a good indicator of key points. Recognising stress can help you to tell the more important points from the less important ones.
Pay attention to signposts   Speakers frequently speak with signposts. They are words, phrases or questions which signal what you are going to hear for the next stage.
Some examples of signposts are:

To introduce a new point: “right, Okay, good, now, well”

To list points : “first, first of all, for a start, second, another, also, then, next, finally, last”

To explain: “In other words, that is, I mean, look at it this way”

To signal important points: “the important/central point, I would like to stress, You have to remember that, the fact is that, so you see that, in fact, what I am saying is that”

To express result: “so, therefore, as a result”

To give an example: “for instance, for example, take the case of , imagine, like, such as”

To show contrast: “but, however, on the other side”

To sum up at the end: “In conclusion, In short, In brief, summing up, so you see , the result is that”

  

Pay attention to repetition   People often repeat or rephrase what they have said for various reasons. Listeners can use these opportunities to catch the meaning a second time.
Pay attention to clues   Understanding spoken words actually goes beyond the literal words. In order to guarantee successful listening, an intelligent listener will make use of relevant clues which go along with the speech. These clues include:
Who said the words? If the speaker is a politician for example, you can probably make predictions about what will be said.
Where did you hear the words? In different contexts, people use different words to suit the context. The language that a news reporter uses in a news report is not the same as the language which he uses in his daily life.
Did the speaker’s tone change? A change in tone may imply a change in meaning.
Obviously, you will not be able to use all these opportunities for listening. However, you should choose a few of your favourite opportunities. Then try to practise all the skills of listening. Relax and keep listening!
