Good guidance can save you a lot of detours.
I have been in the United States for 4 years, from an English idiot to the present English level.
At the beginning, if someone could give me some good advice, I wouldn't have to suffer so much injustice.
The prime minister's concept and attitude are very important.
1, the concept, without any skills, all those quick things on the internet are nonsense. If you are human, no matter how many hours you study every day. In four or five months, it is absolutely impossible for you to become a master of English from a poor one.
2. Attitude must hold the attitude of wanting to learn and being happy to learn. A common misunderstanding is that. Many people in China want to learn English, so they ask me what materials to review.
English is a language. If you really want to learn English well, you should integrate it into your life. Instead of rote learning.
High school, learning English, can be said to be dealing with the college entrance examination. But in college, you learn English to improve your comprehensive ability. The trend of globalization in China is inevitable. I think you know the importance of English without me. Otherwise you wouldn't ask.
If you can't speak a few words clearly after studying English for four years, it will be a bit sad. Needless to say, many China students have studied English for four years and their English level is really poor. I don't mean poor reading ability, I mean poor oral English. An example around me, my sister passed CET-4 and CET-6 in China. When she first arrived in the United States, hey, don't mention it, you know. For example, revenge, utensils, Beverly, shower head, bedspread, vent, Detergene, Hobo, I don't know, let alone slang, you know what I mean here.
I don't mean to belittle anyone here. I have also experienced a painful learning experience. It is common to be laughed at. Hey, let's not talk about my past here. Ha ha. . .
Ok, how to learn English well. Five o'clock. .
1. Read an English newspaper every day. Now that the internet is so developed, just find an authoritative English newspaper. Choose some topics of interest (interest is everything in learning). For example, The new york Times and Time Magazine are all good newspapers. After reading them, you will know how your English level is. Ha ha. .
2. Generally don't use English-Chinese dictionaries (unless absolutely necessary). Using an English-Chinese dictionary can only make you speak Chinglish. If you rely on translation, then commit suicide, haha. .
The most popular English dictionary website:
/topics/35639/
This better place is its pronunciation function. I dare not compliment the English pronunciation level taught by China.
I have studied English in China for five years, and I can't pronounce even the most basic words when I first arrived outside. Another advantage is that it is explained in English. If you don't understand the word in the explanation, you can double-click the word and it will explain itself automatically, which is very convenient. Many "entity" words, such as what you can see, can be searched through google image to establish a direct relationship between images and languages, rather than from images to Chinese and then to English.
The third point, I personally think, is the most important one. Practice pronunciation and listening. If you can't speak and listen when learning English, what can you say? But this has nothing to do with the exam, hehe. (China exam-oriented education)
Never use the pronunciation method taught by your middle school or high school teacher, or your future will be ruined. I'm also a victim. O(∩_∩)o ... Practice with the dictionary website I provided, not with the pronunciation provided by Kingsoft. To tell the truth, many are not allowed. If you look up more words, you will find a little regularity in pronunciation. . Then more importantly, watch American TV shows and movies. But to emphasize, don't always watch those with Chinese subtitles. It's no use watching that. Download all English or Chinese and English subtitles. Prepare a pen and paper, write down all the words you don't know, and look them up according to my method after reading them, without Chinese annotations, and use English annotations. The next one depends on perseverance. When you understand the meaning, read what you read again. This time, try to understand every sentence. The best way is that they say something and you repeat it. This is very difficult, I often can't do it myself, but if you can, your vocabulary in English life will be greatly increased. Speaking and listening will also increase greatly.
The fourth point is as important as the third point, which can be said to be together. Your vocabulary has increased, your spoken English has been trained, and then you should use it. This step is very difficult at first, that is, every time you say a Chinese sentence, you immediately think about how to say it in English. When you encounter difficulties with words, you will write them down in your notebook and look them up as soon as you have time. There are things around you that you see. Think about how to say this thing in English. Such as soap, lamps, drawers, whatever you can see. I don't know. Write it down and check it. I need not emphasize the role of this point.
If you really make up your mind,:-), write an English diary every day. . Hehe, occasionally, because there is no habit of keeping a diary.
If you can strictly implement the above five points, your English level will be greatly improved after one year. . But let me remind you first, and take myself as a reference. Even if you persist in this way for one year, your English level is still far behind that of native English speakers. Unless you are better now. I'm not referring to the English scores in the college entrance examination. Otherwise it is estimated that you will live for two or three years.
If you want to read any books. I recommend the basic models that Americans have generally seen. Frankenstein, The Great Gatsby, The Old Man and the Sea, three musketeers and Gone with the Wind.
The Scarlet Letter, Animal Farm, Pride and Judgment. There are many more. Please read these first and leave me a message if you still recommend them.
Personally, I think English is very beneficial. I didn't say that English is better than Chinese, and I never thought so. But if you master English well, you will feel that your knowledge of life will double. Then you don't have to read the translated English classics. Learning computer will be much easier than others. Knowing more about western culture and then combining things will be very helpful for your future development.
I never write so much, but I hope more and more people in China can learn English well, because I personally think it is a good thing. But because of the education system in China, I hope to write some opinions and help my compatriots. Come on! ! I believe you will succeed. Remember, it's all on your own, and no one has any skills. There is no systematic learning method. English is a language, and language learning should be in daily life, not in individual books.
