一個(gè)人怎么練習(xí)英語口語？

　　我想你已經(jīng)知道，如果你想你的英語口語能力，你必須練習(xí)，對(duì)吧？你必須開口說。只學(xué)習(xí)語法永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)你的口語能力，單單練習(xí)英語聽力也不會(huì)你的口語水平。你得真正開口才行。但是如果你身邊沒有可以用英語交談的人怎么辦呢？那樣的話你該怎么練習(xí)呢？

　　Well,there's a technique that allows you to learn to speak English by yourself,no speaking partner is required.this technique can help improve many aspects of your spoken English:your sentence structure,your grandma,your vocabulary,and most importantly,your ability to express your thoughts and ideas effectively.so what is his technique?Here's what it is....

　　其實(shí)，這里有一個(gè)可以讓你不需要對(duì)話伙伴，自己練習(xí)口語的技巧。它可以從方方面面幫助你英語的口語能力：句子結(jié)構(gòu)、語法、詞匯，較重要的是，它可以有效地表達(dá)思想和觀點(diǎn)的能力。那么這個(gè)技巧是什么呢？那就是......

　　Learning to speak English throug himitation.when I say imitation,I'm not talking about repeating after Native speakers,using the exact same word to improve your pronunciation.I'm talking about something,a little more advanced than that.here's how it works:you listen to a conversation,a story,or some kind of speech,and then try to deliver that speech in your own words.

　　學(xué)習(xí)通過模仿來說英語。我所說的模仿，并不是要你把母語人士所說的話一字不落的重復(fù)跟讀來你的發(fā)音，我說的這個(gè)方法要比這個(gè)好用多了。它是這樣的：在你聽了一段對(duì)話，一個(gè)故事，或者演講視頻，嘗試著用你自己的話來復(fù)述出來。

　　let's see this technique in action:

　　(讓我們看看實(shí)際操作是怎樣的）

　　(聽)when I was a child.(說)when he was a child.

　　(聽)my parents liked to pretend,like many other parents.(說)his parents liked to pretend,like many other parents.

　　(聽)that SantaClauswould bring us presents at Christmas.(說)hisparents like topretend that Santa Claus would bring them presents at Christmas.

　　(聽)so when my siblings and I would wake up on Christmas morning,(說)so when he and his siblings would wake up on Christmas morning.

　　(聽)There'd be abunch of presents,from supposedly.Santa clause,sitting in front of the fireplace,(說)there'd a bunch of presents,from supposedly Santa clause sitting in front of the fireplace.

　　So that's how it works.but that's just oneway to do it,there are other ways too.for example,instead of imitating small portions of speech,like phrases and short sentences,you can imitatelarger portions of speech.so in this case,you wait until the speaker completeat hought or an idea.then pause and try to express that idea yourself.another approach is to simply listen to the whole speech,and then try to deliver that entire speech yourself.so there are several ways to go about it.

　　這個(gè)技巧就是這么操作的。但是這只是一種操作方法，還有其他的方法。例如，不僅僅是模仿演講中的短語和短句，這樣的小塊段落，你還可以模仿更大的段落。

　　所以在這種情況下，你要等到演講者說完一個(gè)完整的觀點(diǎn)后，暫停視頻，然后試著自己把這個(gè)觀點(diǎn)表達(dá)出來。另一種方法就是單純地聽完整個(gè)演講，然后試著用自己的話復(fù)述完整個(gè)演講。所以其實(shí)有很多種方法應(yīng)用這個(gè)技巧。

　　But what I recommend is to combine them all together,and I called this approach easy-to-hard imitation.Easy-to-hard imitationis based on the concept of progressive training.the idea is that your startwith something easy and then increase the difficulty of the activity,forcing yourself to get better.

　　但我的建議是把它們?nèi)拷Y(jié)合在一起，我把這種方法稱為“從易到難模仿法”。從易到難模仿法是建立在漸進(jìn)式訓(xùn)練的概念上而設(shè)計(jì)的。就是，從一些簡單的內(nèi)容開始，然后增加練習(xí)的難度，逼著自己變強(qiáng)。許多研究都發(fā)現(xiàn)這種培訓(xùn)是非常有效的。

　　A number of studies have found this kind of training to be very effective.here's how you can apply this concept:start by imitating small portions of speech first,like phrases and short sentences,then move onto imitating larger portions of speech,like long sentences or even groups of sentences,and finally,try to deliver the entire speech on your own.

　　接下來教你如何應(yīng)用這個(gè)概念：首先以演講為例，模仿演講中小塊段落，比如短語和短句，然后繼續(xù)模仿更大的段落，比如長句乃至整段的句子。較后，試著獨(dú)自復(fù)述完整個(gè)演講。

　　This technique offers many benefits.you get to listen and imitate correct English,which helps you learn to form sentences properly.you get to learn idioms,expressions,and other speaking patterns that are used in day-to-day conversations.you get to learn grandma,when you imitate other people,you're learning grandma through a process called implicit learning.this is the process where the learning happens without you rawareness.

　　運(yùn)用這個(gè)技巧有許多好處。你可以練習(xí)聽力和模仿正確的英語發(fā)音，這有助于你學(xué)會(huì)說出正確完整的句子。你還可以學(xué)到英語中的慣用語、表達(dá)方式和日常對(duì)話中經(jīng)常使用的其它口語句式。

　　你還可以學(xué)到語法，當(dāng)你模仿別人的時(shí)候，你其實(shí)在用一個(gè)叫做“隱性學(xué)習(xí)”的過程來學(xué)習(xí)語法，就是指在你沒有意識(shí)的情況下學(xué)習(xí)。

　　This is how baby and children learn the grandma rules of their first language.when you imitate,you don't think about grandma.You're not try to understand why the present perfect tense is used in this situation or in that situation.Instead,you're focused on communication,on understanding and expressing ideas.

　　這就是嬰兒和兒童如何學(xué)習(xí)他們母語語法的方式。當(dāng)你模仿的時(shí)候，你不會(huì)去想語法。你也并不會(huì)試著去理解為什么現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)態(tài)被用在這種情境下或那種情境下。相反，你專注于溝通、理解和表達(dá)想法。
