Retelling exercise: Retell some articles or English stories in our own words.

　　复述练习:最简单也是最有效的口语学习方法.从治本上攻克英文的方法,特别适合初学者和中级学者,用自己的话背颂所听的英语故事或文章短文,应该大量地练习.

　　If possible, we may read some English tongue twisters loudly and quickly with one or two cakes of candy in our mouth (just as the Chinese cross-talk actors

　　do.) to train our oral cavity muscle and tongues suitable for English pronunciation.

　　如果可能我们也可以大声且快速朗读英文绕口令(就象相声演员练嘴),还可以同时口中含块糖以加大强化训练的力度.这样来强我们的口腔肌肉迅速适应英文发音,使我们的口语相当流利 ,清晰,而且还有自信.例如:

　　☆A big black bug bit the back of a big black bear. The big black bear bit back the big black bug.

　　☆This fish has a thin fin; That fish has a fat fin;

　　This fish is a fish that has a thinner fin than that fish.

　　aying more attention to phrases and small words as one major shortcoming of Chinese English (especially Chinese oral English) is that Chinese students ten d to use big words in their oral language, but the idiomatic oral English is abu

　　ndant with short, active and vivid phrases. And most of such phrases are made of small words.

　　特别注意短语(词组)和小词的运用,中国式的英语尤其是口语一个很大的缺点就是中国学生喜

　　欢用大词,而真正地道的英语口语确是充满着短小,活泼,生动的短语,富有生气.而这些短语大

　　部分有小词构成.
