Improving Your Motivation for Learning English
Hi, everyone. In today’s lecture, we will share the techniques for improving your motivation for learning English as a foreign language together. We used them all the time when we were learning English and we still use them when we need to boost our motivation in areas other than English.
Imagine you can talk to native speakers just like you talk in your first language. Imagine other people wanting to speak English as well as you do. Imagine the possibility of writing email to people from all over the world.
It is helpful to read an article about the advantages of knowing English well. There are a lot of articles on: Why learn English and English makes you feel good.
You should know that it is possible to learn English really well. Just look at other people who have done it.
First of all, remember that you are already good. You already know some English. That’s a big success! Now it’s time for more successes. Time starts using powerful methods of effective learning. Time to gain an impressive knowledge of English. Remember there is a lot that you don’t know. You are good, but your English probably isn’t perfect. You probably can’t understand English-language TV, read books in English, talk to native speakers easily, write letters without mistakes, etc. You should never think your English is perfect. Even if you are the best student in your class, always try to find your weak areas and work on them. When you’ve learned to speak English well, your problems will be quite small: punctuation, rarely used grammar structures, rare words, understanding "street language". Right now, your problems are probably more basic: mistakes in pronunciation, small vocabulary, grammar problems with the present perfect tense and conditional structures.
Secondly, use your English whenever you can. This is very, very important. The more you use English, the more you will want to learn it. Because English is so popular, you can use it everywhere. You can use Google to find English-language websites with interesting information, you can watch American cartoons, you can play adventure games on your computer, you can read interesting books in English, or you can do other things that we write about. If you also use effective learning methods, your English will grow faster than you can imagine.
Thirdly, talk to people about English. This is a very simple method, but it is very effective. Here’s how it works: You usually talk about things which interest you. But the opposite is true, too. If you start talking about a boring subject, you will begin to get interested in it. Imagine you are studying a subject that you hate. You are bored and tired, but you have to pass the test tomorrow. If there are people near you, you have two options: you can tell everybody how much you are suffering or you can tell these people about the things you’ve learned. If you choose the first option, you will only feel worse. If you choose the second option, and start a conversation on the "boring" subject, you will begin to look at it in a totally different way. Suddenly it will become a subject worth talking about—therefore, an interesting subject. How can you begin such a conversation? If you’re studying English, you can surprise another person by talking to him or her in English. If there are no people near you, you can telephone or send an email message to your friend. What will your friends say? Probably they won’t be very interested, but it doesn’t matter! The important thing is this: After talking about English, you will study it with much more passion. Try it. If you can find a friend who is learning English and is on a similar level of skill, you will be in an excellent situation: you will have someone to talk about English with. These conversations will increase your interest in English, as explained in the previous section: learning English will be easier, because you will be able to discuss your problems with your friend: you will study English more, because you will want to be better than your friend. You should meet your friend regularly.
Then, don’t forget to spend some money on learning English. If you spend your money on something, you will want to use it. For example, if you buy an expensive tennis racket, you will probably go out and play tennis every day. This rule is also true for learning English. If you want to increase your desire to learn English, buy a new dictionary, an interesting English-language book, English-language cable TV, etc. The idea is simple: You paid for it, so you will want to use it, and you will improve your English. This method is helpful, because it gives you an impulse to start learning. For example, if you buy a dictionary of phrasal verbs, you will probably learn some words from it. Then you should try to use them. For example, write an email message with these words. This will increase your motivation, and you will learn more.
Lastly, remember that learning English requires action. We have said this many times. One small action is more powerful than reading hundreds of articles. Yes, we know it is very hard to do things, even if they are good for us. We humans are lazy creatures. That is why not many people speak English well. Still, we hope you can do the things we talk about in our English learning method—not only read about them. You will be successful only if you change something about your life. So don’t put it off. Begin now.
To conclude, the lecture has discussed the ways to improve the motivation for learning English. Hope all of you can bear them in your mind.
选项
答案
success
解析
此题是上一题的并列内容,一同构成了action的具体内容。录音中提到“只有你的生活稍做改变,你才会成功(You will be successful only if you…life)。”此处空格位于enjoy后面,结构缺宾语,由此可知应填入successful的名词形式success。
