在外语学习中,如何避免“哑巴英语”

The so-called \"dumb English\" is an English teaching method that places extreme emphasis on written English and seriously neglects oral expression and the students' English ability cultivated under this teaching method. The main reason for this is that Chinese-style English education often learns words and teaches students how to use rigid grammatical knowledge to do questions, and does not pay attention to listening and oral expression. I don't even know how to think in English from a macro level, and use the words and grammar knowledge I have learned to make sentences on the spot. I have learned English for so many years, but it is \"dumb English\". How to improve speaking skills? 1. Adjust the mental state

Listening comprehension is the synthesis of a series of complex mental activities, and creating tension is the enemy of listening training. In order to stabilize the mood, the listening arrangements should be gradually transitioned from shallow to deep, from easy to difficult. 2. Strengthen the basic knowledge of language

Listening learning, like other content, must start from the basics, especially the correction and discrimination of speech. Only by starting with the basic content and gradually transitioning to words, phrases,

sentences, and dialogues, can the level of English be improved. 3. Combination of Intensive Listening and Extensive Listening

In order to overcome this process of listening and then translating, it is necessary to conduct targeted rapid listening training for paragraphs so that the content of the paragraphs can be heard immediately. In the listening class, it is necessary to train the correct listening methods and make extensive listening connections after the class. You can choose to listen to English news, movie soundtracks, VOA, radio, etc. according to your interests and hobbies. When listening, pay attention to the combination of intensive listening and extensive listening. For example, you can listen to VOA intensively, listen and write, listen to and write the parts that you don’t understand, and try to figure out why you don’t understand and what is the difference with what I heard. And like the English broadcast, you can listen extensively and listen to entertaining broadcasts, which is very attractive. After listening for a long time, you will be very proficient.

4. Speaking and reading proactively

If you don't learn dumb English, you have to say it out loud. I recommend two American dramas for learning spoken English. One is \"Friends\" and the other is \"Desperate Housewives\". Both of them are very spoken, with simple sentences, easy to catch, and rich in plot.

Reading with the protagonists, not only improved the spoken language, but also appreciated the original American style. On the basis of listening, you need to read aloud. You can find some famous books with recordings, read the books, and read them aloud following the recordings. Over time, you will find that your mouth and lips react faster and become more sensitive.

Finally, we must persevere, not afraid of embarrassment, and don't be afraid of making mistakes. The more mistakes you make, the closer you are to success.
