英语学习方法的黄金法则(上)

 1．What is language for? Some people seem to think it is for practicing grammar rules and learning¹ lists of words--the longer the words the better. That’s wrong. Language is for the exchange of ideas, for communication.

    语言到底是用来干什么的呢？一些人认为它是用来操练语法规则和学习一大堆单词——而且单词越长越好。这个想法是错误的。语言是用来交换思想，进行交流沟通的！

    2. The way to learn a language is to practice speaking it as often as possible.

    学习一门语言的方法就是要尽量多地练习说。

    3. A great man once said it is necessary to dill as much as possible, and the more you apply it in real situations, the more natural it will become.

    一位伟人曾说，反复操练是非常必要的，你越多的将所学到的东西运用到实际生活中，他们就变的越自然。

    4．Listening and imitating² should always go together. Use the LIP³ method! Listen－Imitate－Practice!

    听和模仿一定要同时做，使用“LIP”方法：听、模仿、操练！

    5. Use all your senses to learn English. You must hear English, read English, touch English, smell English, and taste English. Feel English with your heart. Immerse⁴ yourself in this language. Begin to think in English.

    运用一切感官学习 英语 。你必须听 英语 、说 英语 、触摸英语、闻英语，还要尝尝英语的味道。用心去感受英语。让自己沉浸在这门语言当中。学会用英语思考。
