As a student，英语论文题目，I have learnt English for more than ten years. Frankly speaking, I can’t communicate with English-speaking foreigners very easily. Not only I but also many other college students in China can’t easily do so.
How about other Chinese people in English-speaking countries？Yao Ming, basketball player in NBA now, entered NBA in 2017 with a translator for helping him communicate with American people. But after about 2 years, Yao “fired” his translator because Yao didn’t need him any more. He could communicate with others in English very easily. Another famous Chinese person Zhang Ziyi, world wide famous movie actress, had hardly learnt English before she started to act in Hollywood. But now she can speak English very well after working and living in USA for several years and successfully finds a rich boyfriend Vivid in America.
How could this happen? Ten-year study in China can’t beat several years’ living in USA, an English speaking country. We haven’t got an environment to study English well, especially the spoken-English. Yes, we can’t deny that we can get high points in so many exams if we do enough practice. And many of us can easily pass CET4 even CET6 so that we may get jobs easier. But the certificate given to you is used to prove that you have the ability to use English rather than helping you get a good job while you have the certificate but don’t have the ability.
In China, if you get high points in English exams then you are thought to be good at English. In my opinion, we do not learn English, we just do the papers again and again. When I was in senior school, the beginning two years I was taught by Mr. Lee who studied in America and got a Master’s degree of Education. He had some new methods which were different from other ways most teachers used. I could get my English ability improved by using the special ways, I mean the ability rather than the points I got in exam. Most of my classmates couldn’t get satisfying points in exams even though we liked English we studied hard as Mr. Lee’s methods. While in senior 3, Mr. Lee was replaced by an experienced teacher who had taught English for almost 20 years. Yeah, it’s “effectively”, our class’s English points got improved gradually, but just points.
I have some friends and classmates who study abroad. Most of them went to study after National College Entrance Examination in China. After studying about 2 years abroad, some of them can easily communicate with English-speaking foreigners. Others’ English ability is much better than that when they were in China. At least they now dare to speak with foreigners initiatively and they have much more opportunities to listen, to think and to speak while it is almost a luxury in China. I don’t mean that we all should go abroad to study English. What I want to say is that the English learning environment is very important to us. Yes, there are some places and chances for us to practice our spoken English. For example, you can go to Starbucks, there are always some forei，英语论文范文 |
