口語聽力不分家：要想英語說得好 聽力是關(guān)鍵

What is the most important English skill? What skill must you have to communicate well?

*重要的英語技能是什么？達(dá)到有效溝通所必須的技能是什么？

Obviously, number 1 is Fluency. What is fluency? Fluency is the ability to speak (and understand) English quickly and easily... WITHOUT translation. Fluency means you can talk easily with native speakers- they easily understand you, and you easily understand them. In fact, you speak and understand instantly。

顯而易見，關(guān)鍵是要流暢表達(dá)。那么什么是流暢表達(dá)呢？流暢表達(dá)是不需要考慮就能快速和輕松說(理解)英語的能力，表示你能夠容易地與當(dāng)?shù)厝诉M(jìn)行交談，交談雙方能輕松地相互理解。也就是說，你能夠立即表達(dá)和理解。

Fluency is your most important English goal。

流暢表達(dá)是學(xué)習(xí)英語*重要的目標(biāo)。

The research is clear- there is only ONE way to get fluency. You do not get fluency by reading textbooks. You do not get fluency by going to English schools. You do not get fluency by studying grammar rules。

研究表明，只有**一個途徑能實現(xiàn)流暢表達(dá)。你既不能通過閱讀課本、也不可能通過上英語學(xué)?；蛘咄ㄟ^學(xué)習(xí)語法來達(dá)到。

Listening Is The Key

聽是關(guān)鍵

To get English fluency, you must have a lot of understandable repetitive listening. That is the ONLY way. To be a FANTASTIC English speaker, you must learn English with your ears, not with your eyes. In other words, you must listen. Your ears are the key to excellent speaking。

想要說一口流利的英語，你必須要進(jìn)行大量能理解的重復(fù)性聽力訓(xùn)練，這是達(dá)成目標(biāo)的**方法。要成為了不起的英語表達(dá)者，你必須通過耳朵來學(xué)英語而不是眼睛。也就是說，你一定得聽，你的耳朵才是實現(xiàn)卓越口語的關(guān)鍵。

What kind of listening is best? Well, it must be understandable and must be repetitive. Both of those words are important- Understandable and Repetitive。

怎樣的聽力訓(xùn)練才是*好的呢？那就是：聽力材料必須是你能理解的，而且要反復(fù)聽。這兩點都很重要——理解和反復(fù)。

If you don't understand, you learn nothing. You will not improve. That's why listening to English TV does not help you. You don't understand most of it. It is too difficult. It is too fast。

假如你對所聽內(nèi)容不理解，你將學(xué)不到任何東西，也就得不到提高。那就是為什么聽英文電視對你沒有幫助，它對你來說太難、太快了，你幾乎不明白它在講什么。

It's obvious right? If you do not understand, you will not improve. So, the best listening material is EASY. That's right, you should listen mostly to easy English. Most students listen to English that is much too difficult. They don't understand enough, and so they learn slowly. Listen to easier English, and your speaking will improve faster!

這個觀點顯然是正確的吧？如果不理解，就無法提高。所以，*好的聽力材料是容易懂的材料。沒錯，你應(yīng)該將主要精力用于聽簡單的東西。大多數(shù)學(xué)生選擇的聽力材料太難了，他們不能充分理解，學(xué)起來就很慢。試著去聽容易些的材料，那樣你的口語會提高得更快。

Understanding is Only Half The Formula。

理解只是方法的一半。

Understanding is not enough. You must also have a lot of repetition. If you hear a new word only once, you will soon forget it. If you hear it 5 times, you will still probably forget it!

光理解還不夠，你必須要進(jìn)行大量的重復(fù)。如果一個新單詞你只聽過一次，那么很快你就會把它忘記；如果你重復(fù)聽五次，可能還是會忘記。

You must hear new words and new grammar many times before you will understand them instantly。

在你能夠自如的理解新單詞和語法規(guī)則之前，你必須要反復(fù)聽上很多次。

How many times is necessary? Most people must hear a new word 30 times to remember it forever. To know a word and instantly understand it, you probably need to hear it 50-100 times!

必須聽多少次呢？對于大多人來講，要想徹底記住一個新詞，必須重復(fù)30次；要想認(rèn)識一個新詞并立刻明白它的意思，你可能需要聽上50至100次。

So, the two most important points are: listen to easier English and listen to each thing many times。

所以，*重要的兩點是：聽較為容易的材料，并將每一個材料反復(fù)聽。
