英语口语、听力学习方法漫谈
——杜伟 著
我在新东方任教已经两年多了,以讲授与听力、口语相关的课程为主。我最大的体会是,中国学生的词汇量极大,一开口就能说出上千个美国人既没见过、又没听过的单词;并且中国学生对语法掌握的精深程度,完全可以胜任教老美TOEFL、GMAT语法之职。但是,一提到口语、听力,很多人便倍感痛苦,因为我们的听、说水平体现不出我们学习英语多年的功底,有时甚至连最简单、最基本的东西都听不懂、说不明白。有限的听说技能是横亘在许多学生求知路上的拦路虎,它使无数人在TOEFL、TSE以及国内的等级考试中吃尽了苦头。而如今国际性大公司纷纷抢滩中国市场,若想在其中谋得满意的职位,英语听说能力是必不可少的敲门砖。许多学生都认识到了在英语口语和听力方面取得突破的重要性而后迫切性,也投入了不少精力,却收效甚微。其实,英语听说取得突破并不是那么困难,关键在于掌握方法。若能把握住其中真谛,你就会很快体会到随心所欲听说英语的乐趣。下面我就谈谈英语口语和听力的学习方法。
一、语学习方法
1.语音问题
几乎每个人都接受过英语语音训练,但是在实际应用时,语音仍是最让人头疼的问题。若是语音不过关,开口说话时就会低气不足,并且无法辨别对方的发音,听力受挫,那么交流就会很困难。要突破语音这一难关,首先要明白单个音素的发音,在此基础上把握连读、缩读等口语表达时常见的语音现象,进而练习英语口语的语调和节奏。练习时要模仿原声录音,有条件的还应录下自己的发音,与原声带进行对比,这样比较容易发现自己的不足。纠正发音是一个枯燥的过程,只有具备耐心、细心和恒心,才会有进步。“Well begun is half done”, 因此,一定要有一个好的开端。
2.词汇问题
中国学生学习英语,词汇量并不是问题,但为什么我们说英语美国人有时听不懂呢?关键在于我们掌握的词汇含义,与实际的地道用法脱节。很多美国人都有这样一种感觉,中国学生讲英语时“talk like a book”,并且是一本“difficult book”。这样交流的效果肯定是大打折扣的。如何学习、掌握地道的口语词汇呢?我给大家的建议是多看原版电影。尽量电影情节是夸张的,但词汇是最地道的。在实际表达时,并不需要太大的词汇量,关键在于掌握其地道的用法,并加以灵活运用。
3.句型问题
解决语音、词汇问题的同时,还要积累大量实用、简洁的英语口语句型。由于传统英语语法教学定式的影响,很多人一开口就是结构复杂的句式,一会儿独立主格,一会儿定语从句,甚至从句套从句,这样讲话,美国人是无法听懂的。因为这样表达太麻烦、太复杂。语音是交流的工具,其目的是让别人明白“what you are talking about”,因此不要把它当做炫耀自己的手段。平时大家在练口语时,一定要学会使用口语化的句型,《英语900句》就是一本简单、实用的句型总汇。中国学生认为这本书太简单而不屑一学,这反映了我们学习英语口语的一个普遍问题:忽视了口语的本质是简单。英语口语表达的最高境界应该是“simple but elegant”。
4.思维问题
有些人发音不错,词汇不是问题,对句型的把握也可以,但是开口说英语时仍磕磕绊绊,词不达意,这里有一个很重要的问题,就是思维不到位。美国人的思维模式和我们有很大的差异。如果对两种不同的思想表达方式和思维逻辑关系把握不准,就达不到交流的目的。比如说,美国人在劝说、安慰或提建议时都是有一定的思维套路可遵循的,如果大家能把握好它,就能有效地“organize ideas”。语音、词汇、句型和思维是突破英语口语的关键。以此为基础,加上“hungry for speaking”的欲望和“ Practice makes perfect”的信念,进行大量的练习,只有这样,才能杂短期内真正地突
破口语这一关。
二、听力学习方法
在提高听力水平之前,应该严格按照前文所述的方法,提高口语水平。但听说水平是相辅相成的有机整体,两者互为条件,互相制约,因此必须同时兼顾。除此之外,练习英语听力,还应该特别注意以下几个问题:
1.必须给自己创造一个尽量真实的语言环境
置身于一个处处可闻英语的环境,尽可能多地接受英语信号对自己听觉的刺激,随着熟悉度的加深,对捕捉到的英语的反应速度也会加快。提高听力是不能脱离语言环境的。如何置身于这样一个环境呢?学英语之初,我曾问过一位美国朋友,他说:最好的方法是 “Go to the United States”, 其次是“Marry an American”。当我表示实施起来有很大难度时,他说,那么其他有效的方法就是“watch American movies”。因为看完一部电影,就仿佛是在美国呆了两个小时,而学到的东西是你在美国两天、甚至两个星期都不一定能掌握的。我对此有很深的体会。在我教授电影课期间,很多学生的听力水平突飞猛进,原因就是电影为他们提供了一个真实的语言环境。
2.必须要大量泛听
英语不仅是一门知识,更是一种技能。俗话中用“拳不离手,曲不离口”来形容熟练掌握一种技能的诀窍。训练英语听力的办法也是如此:需要大量听,大量背。一个没有泛听过英语的人,不可能突然拥有良好的听力。一开始有兴趣就乱听,一点儿听不懂或听懂很少,这没有关系。也许三个月过去了,好像每个单词都这么熟悉,但还是不知道它的确切意思。你的感觉是什么?——没有长进。其实在不知不觉中,你已经有了很大的进步,只不过这是一个潜移默化的过程。泛听是一个知识储备的手段,为你打下了坚实的基础,为你迎接听懂英语的“一刹那”做好了必不可少的准备,有了这个基础,再配合精听,你的听力很快就能实现突破。
3.泛听必须和精听相结合仅仅泛听是不够的。它只是量的积累,是一个准备过程,只有在精听之后,听力才能有质的飞跃。我练听力之初,泛听过很多部美国电影,但对每部影片的理解也只有四成左右,似乎听力水平就停滞于此了。于是,我开始精听《毕业生》这部影片,经过仔细学习、揣摩电影中的词汇、文化和思维等,我对它的理解达到了80%以上。我又用同样的方法学习了《阿瑟》、《漂亮女人》、《哈里遇到塞丽》等其他四、五部影片。当我再去看其他影片时,我惊喜地发现,要理解60%以上非常轻松,真有豁然开朗的感觉。从那以后,我很注意看电影时的精泛结合,听力水平也一步一个台阶地提高了。精听电影,就如同为自己的听力插上腾飞的翅膀,成为突破听力难关不可缺少的步骤。
上述口语、听力方法的介绍,希望大家借鉴。同时大家也应该明白这样一个道理:“Rome was not built in a day”(冰冻三尺,非一日之寒)。只要持之以恒,突破口语和听力难关的那一刻离你并不遥远。

C 容易弄错的美语
下面一些用语或口语,在字眼上,颇有相似之处,但在意义和用法上,却有不同。使用时要特别小心,以免出错。
son of a gun 与 son of a bitch:
son of a gun 是对好友表示一种惊讶的口语(an interjection or an exclamation of surprise between very good friends),有点像「坏蛋」、「家伙」的味道。
但 son of a bitch(或 SOB)是美国人极为严重的骂人话(curse word),千万不可乱用,以免闹事。因为这不但意味这位 son 没有确定的父亲,同时母亲也是缺乏道德和贞操(less virtuous)。例如:
* I have not seen you for a long time;you(are)son of a gun!(你这坏蛋啊,我好久不见你了!)
* After the two men called each other“son of a bitch”(SOB),they started a fight.(这两位男子互骂SOB後,就动起武来。)至於 son of a gun 的来由,据说从前女人可以住在海军船上服务。结果一位女人生下孩子时,不知父亲是谁,於是船上的人,就以「gun」做为孩子的 paternity,孩子也就被称为「son of a gun」。虽然只用在好友中,但有时也真有坏蛋的意思(evil person or a rogue)所以不是恭维语(complimentary word),除非真正好友,少用为妙。
at large 与 by and large: at large 当形容词,最常用的意思是指嫌犯脱逃,逍遥法外(escape,referring to criminal before arrest)而 by and large 当副词用,意思是一般而言(generally speaking on the whole)。例如:
* The murder suspect is still at large.(凶手仍然逍遥法外)
* By and large, I feel(that)the new proposal is sensible.(大体来说,我认为新的建议是很切合实际的。)
* By and large, most people will care about their weight.(一般而言,许多人关心他们的体重)
然而,有时 at large 也有「一般」(in general)的意思。例如:
* The Chinese people at large are peace-loving.(一般中国人是爱好和平的)
Here you go 与 Here you go again: Here you go 是指给别人东西时说:「这就是你要的」(=Here is what you want);有时也表示同意对方的意见(= you are right);有时又与 there you go 互用。
* The cashier said, “Here you go!”when she gave me the change.(当收款员找我零钱时,她说:「这就是!」)
但是 Here you(或 we)go again 意思是「你又旧事重提了」,表示对一件事情多次重复的厌烦。(feel annoyed when something is repeated over and over again)。例如: * When he brought up the same issue to me, I said, “Here you go again!”(当他向我提出同样的问题时,我说:「又是老话题了!」)至於“Here goes”又是指说话者开始做某事时说:「开始了」。例如: *“Here goes!”, shouted the racer as he started running.(当赛跑者开始跑步时,喊著「我就开始了!」)
to marry(someone)与 to be married to(someone): marry 当做及物动词时,多用主动语态(active voice)。例如:
* She married a man ten years younger(或older).(她嫁给一位比她小或大十岁的男人)= She married a man ten years her junior(或senior).但是 marry 用在被动语态时(passive voice),後面要用介系词 to。例如: * She is(was)married to a man ten years younger(older).= She is(was)married to a man ten years her junior(senior).(假如用 is,指目前还是夫妻,如用 was,可能已经不是夫妻了)
然而,在 married 後面用介系词 by 时,又有「牧师证婚」的意思。例如:
* She was married by a man ten years younger.(是指为她证婚的牧师,比她小十岁。)* She was married by my father.(为他证婚的牧师是我老爸。)(因为牧师证婚已成过去,所以要用过去式 was。)
near 与 near by:
near 是介系词(preposition)通常後面跟受词(object),但是 near by(或 nearby)当形容词(adjective)意思是指「附近」(=close),只指某一地方(somewhere),没有特定地点(no specific location)。例如:
* The school is near the railway station.(学校在火车站附近。)* The post office and library are near by.(邮局和图书馆都在附近。)
可见 near by(或 nearby)通常後面不加受词,不然就显得 awkward 了。所以很少人说:
* I ate at a near restaurant.不过可以说: * I ate at a nearby restaurant.;或
* The restaurant where I ate is nearby.(不过也有老外用 near)
school is open 与 the school is open:
school is open(或 schools are open)是指「学校开学」(classes are in session),这里的 open 是形容词,school 前面不加冠词 the,意味整个中小学的 school system。但是 the school is open,多指学校的建筑物开放著,但没有学生上课。
同理:He goes to school.是指他去上学读书受教育,而 He goes to the school.又指他去学校的建筑物(看朋友、参观等)。
至於 School is closed.(或 Schools are closed.)是指「学校停课」,前面也不加 the。
注意:close 当形容词时,也有「附近」(nearby)或「友善」(friendly)的意思。例如: * The school is close(=nearby).(学校在附近。)* That is a close neighborhood.(那是一个友善的住宅区),而 The school is opened at 8 a.m.;或 * The school is closed at 5 p.m.(都是指学校的建筑物开放或关闭的时间。)但是 The store is open.是指店铺在营业中(= Business is going on.),而 The store is closed.又是指店铺暂时不营业。
假如店铺是永久性的「关门大吉」,就应该说: * The store was closed down.(permanently)
不过 closed 当形容词时,又有「保守」(conservative)或受某种「限制」(restricted)的意思。例如:
* This is a closed community.(这是一个保守的社区。)(由於宗教信仰等原因,美国有的社区不欢迎外来的人。)
D 美国人的口头禅
9.It is a shame!这是一句可以用在许多适当情况的口语(Catch-all phrase),是表示一种轻度的「遗憾」或「同情」(a form of sympathy or regret)但没有「羞耻」的意思。例如:
It is a shame that your car got stuck in the snow.(你的汽车陷在雪里,真糟糕。)
When I said, “I lost ten dollars from my pocket.”,he replied, “It is a shame!”(当我说:「我从口袋里掉了十块钱」,他回答:「真遗憾?」)
至於 “What a shame”,其实与 “it is a shame” 意思相似,也有 “It is too bad” 的味道。例如:
What a shame that his son's behavior is so rude.(他儿子的粗鲁行为是令人遗憾的)
10.May it ever be thus!意思是:希望保持现在的情况,不会改变。(I hope it will not change;may the situation always remain the same.),通常用在喜庆时,也有祝你与现在一样的健康快乐之意。(I hope you are always as healthy and happy as now.)例如:
We are wonderful friends;may it ever be thus!(我们是好友,愿永远如此!)
He said to the newly weds, “May it ever be thus!”(他对新婚夫妇说:「愿你们永远这样的恩爱、幸福」)
11.Am I being petty? 意思是:「我是气量小吗?」或「我是心胸狭窄吗?」(narrow-minded)这是一个人做了或说了某件事情後,唯恐别人批评或指责而自加「反省」的表态。(或表示谦虚)
这里用 verb to be 的现在进行式,表示气量小或心胸窄是「暂时性」的。而 Am I petty? 又是指「经常性」的。(但是谁又愿意承认自己是经常的气量小,心胸窄呢!所以为了「自尊心」,通常不说“I am petty”,只说“I am being petty.” 同理:
Am I being over-reactive?(或 over sensitive?)(我是反应过火或过份敏感吗?)
Are you being in bad mood?(你情绪不好吗?)都是强调「暂时性」。否则就不必使用现在进行式(being)(主词可用任何人称代名词 you, we, he, she, they 等,动词可用任何时态。)
12.Stay tuned!这多半是指播音员在收音机或电视上所说的。意思是:「稍等一下,下面还有」(Stay where you are in the same channel),但也可以表示对一件事情的继续讨论(to keep continuing the same issue)。(tuned是形容词,原意是调好电台或电视)例如:
Stay tuned, there will be more on this subject tomorrow.(稍等,这个问题明天再谈。)
Stay tuned 的等候时间,可长可短,要看情况而定。
然而 “wait a moment” 通常是指 immediately,时间较短。例如:
Stay tuned(或 wait a moment)I will be right back.(指马上回来)
但是:
We have to stay tuned regarding the name change of our school.(我们必须等待校名的变更)(等待时间较长)
13.You can say that again!这句话的意思是「我同意你」(I agree with you.)或「你对了」(You are right.)例如:
When the professor spoke on human rights, the students responded, “You can say that again!”(当教授谈到人权时;学生回答说:「你说得对!」)
虽然这句话的主词通常只用第二人称单数 You,但在某些情况下,也可以用其他人称。例如:
When we heard Mr.Clinton's speech on tax reduction, my wife turned to me and said, “He can say that again!”(当我们听到柯林顿先生减税的讲演时,内人转头对我说:「他说得对!」)
14.Let me sleep on it.意思是「让我考虑一下」或「让我想想看」(let me think about it.)(这与 sleep 没有关系)例如:
Let me sleep on your proposal.(让我考虑你的建议。)
When he asked if she wanted to stay with him, she said, “Let me sleep on it.”(当他问她要不要留下来,她说:「要想想看」。)
在 “let me sleep on it.” 中,me 可用其他人称代名词(him, her, you, us, them 等),it 有时也用 this 或 that 代替。
15.Take heart!意思是「勇敢些」、「不必苦恼」、「振作起来」(be brave;don't worry;don't let things get you down)(多半指感情方面,比较 emotional)例如:
Take heart, and the situation will be better.(不必怕,情况会好些。)
Take heart, I am sure you will be successful in the future.(振作起来吧,我相信你将来会成功的。)
16.Tune him out!意思是「别听他的」,「不必理会他」(don't listen to him;don't pay attention to him.)例如:
Mr.Lee just talked nonsense;tune him out.(李先生在瞎扯,别听他的。)
I am going to tune her out when she begins to speak on the subject.(当她谈及主题时,我不想理会她。)
The husband tuned out his wife when he was watching the football game.(老公看足球赛时没有理会太座。)
(tune out 有时也可连在一起使用)(在 “tune him out” 这句口语里,动词 tune 可用任何时态;受词 him 也可用其他人称代名词。)

我的英语在大学就一直不行,勉强混过四级,只能说是碰巧读了研,英语怎么考过的我自己都没想明白。从毕业四年后基本都快把英语忘掉了。三年前因为一个特殊的机遇进入外企(美国 企业)工作以来,断断续续学了很久的英语。进展一直不大,也就是能看看技术书书籍,英文帮助而已。“听”、“说”、“写”比 没学过英语的人好不了多少。由于工作的需要,经常性的去参加培训自己感觉水平稍微提高了一点。最主要的是对学习英语的认识改 变了,学习方法改变了。
有次有个老外对我说,英语是skill不是knowledge。我觉得这个总结得相当好,英语不是知识,只是一门技能。学习知识和掌握技能所用的方法是截然不同的。掌握技能关键是要用,用得多了自然就掌握了。但同时也要讲究方法。就象学游泳一样,好的老师用正确的方法教,那肯定比自己瞎扑腾要学得快学得好。
想起以前总是傻傻的背单词,还自己写了程序背。其实单纯背单词的学习效果是很差的。远不如背句子及短文。
练习听力我个人觉得钟道隆的逆向英语见效最快,尽管刚开始时很难坚持。它的方法就是听写,一边听一边把听到的内容写下来,没听清楚就一句句反复,至于听什么倒无所谓,自己根据自己的水平找适当的就行了。这种方法强迫你听懂每一个词,包括很多一 带而过的介词,连读等。坚持下来很容易见效。
“说”,其实找老外对练是最好的了,但是有个问题是不是哪里都有老外,也不是谁都认识老外,前段时间发现一个练口语和听力的网站不错,下面网址推荐的第一个,我感觉不错。需要练习的朋友可以去看一下。
写就没这么简单了。很多短语,或是语法,在阅读时都不是问题。可要在自己写东西的时候却什么也写不出来,全认得,就是写 不出。其实和练听力时是一个道理,最好是背诵一些短文。我记得以前高考之前,为增加写作能力,也有很多同学整本的背一些什么 优美文章集之类的。每天如果能用英语写写日记应该也是个好办法。(可惜我自己连写中文日记都坚持不下来。)
另外记忆是一个不断重复,加深映象的过程。所以复习和复习的频度也是非常关键的。子曰:“学而时习之,不亦乐乎。”。只 学不复习其实是很笨的做法,这样做只会浪费了第一次的学习时间。
所以为了更好的学习英语,更好的锻炼我的口语(工作性质决定我并不需要翻译工作,能和老外流利的对话才是在外企工作的根本,所以流利的口语在参加工作以后更为重要)。我找了一些学习英语的网站经行对比学习,发现下面这些网站不错,而且免费,推荐给大家http://(美诺学习网)

第五篇:英语口语如何学
英语口语如何学
【学习方法】 2008-09-07 13:57:13 阅读331 评论1字号:大中小 订阅
“口语不是学出来的,是练出来的。”外语口语学习对中国人来说一向是弱项,要想大胆说出英语,应做到
以下几点:
一、从背简单句开始
中国人学英语的最大问题就是发音是否标准。针对基础比较弱和基础比较好两类不同的英语学习者的角度提出建议。对于英语基础比较薄弱的学习者,建议背诵大量的简单、实用的句子,比如„I quit‟。这些句子积累到一定的量再进入下一阶段口语的学习。对于中国学生来说,学了10多年英语,词汇量、语法上
问题都不大,关键是运用能力不够。
学英语时,我们会不自觉地用汉语思维,然后再翻译成英文,所以要不断练习,达到尽量用英语进行思
维的程度,所谓“熟能生巧”。
很多人平时练得不错,但一见老外就讲不出来。克服心理的障碍很重要,怎么做呢?“给自己一些心理暗示,比如„说英语很简单‟、„我能说得好‟等。另外也可以先找一些英语说得好的中国人交流,多看英文报
纸和英文电影,适应一下,等具备了一定的自信就可以了。”
二、日常生活中的口语
“对于基础好的英语学习者来说,他们要解决的问题就是,如何才能大段大段流利地说出英文。”建议他们可以背一些经典的英语小短文,适应语速,模仿电影里的发音。“还有一个具体情境下运用的问题,有的时候我们背诵的是正确的,但运用起来就不一定了。还要了解西方文化习俗、西方人的思维方式。而且
还要注意语体,跟朋友讲话与跟上司讲话表达的方式也是不一样的。”
专家最后介绍说,学习口语是个日积月累的过程,重要的是用轻松的心态去学习口语,找到学习的乐趣。学口语不一定要单词、语法什么的都觉得非常好再去学,在日常生活中也可以学,比如坐地铁时,注意听
广播里报站名,也是一种学习口语表达的方式,注意看广告里的英语也是一种学习。
三、看英文电影是很有效的方法
第一遍可以先看带中文字幕的,第二遍再看英文字幕,会议一下第一遍听的是不是正确,第三编就不看
任何字幕。一部电影最起码看三遍,这个方法很有效。
四、其他方法
看一些原版小说和老外写的英文教材,勇敢地说出口。
