如何才能真正提高自己的英语

dragonpig

真心觉得在澳洲最关键三件事是：英语，英语，还是英语
如果你有一技之长，英语可以说是系数，英语越好，你的能力被放大的也越多，这样才能变得更加自信，才能更好的生活，希望大家一起讨论如何能够真正提高自己的英语，可以到达自如的表达，口音什么的可能过了语言学习期很难消除了。希望大家能够列举一些操作性强的方案，比如在哪里啥时间有个英语corner效果很好，比如看啥啥的tv shows适合什么level的人，诸如此类，集思广益。

我个人觉得，循序渐进，目前我的（工作）生活应该是已经不用中文了，但是觉得学习英文将是一辈子的课题。

不用刻意去挑节目，有时间就多看新闻，阅读报纸，收听广播，尽量让自己身处在整个英文环境之中。

用英文吸收知识，用英文去思考，如果做梦是听见英文，也回答英文，那就对了！

如果能够达到思考也是用英语，应该就很不错了。
关键是多用。

我真心地觉得家里有个孩子，对提高英语帮助很大。
尽量跟上孩子，学他们在学的东西。

到了一定程度之后，就不是单纯语言的问题，而是一个文化体系的问题
我们从小的教育是中文教育，很多知识的涵盖都是用的中文，比如历史，
地理，生物，体育，文学等等。 如果要把这些已经学过和掌握的东西重新用英文组织一遍，也需要
花不少时间。

我觉得英语环境很重要，有条件跟说英语的人住在一起对提高英语会很有帮助

I've been in oz for one year. My listening skills improve greatly, 'cause I have a lot of chance to listen, but unfortunately, my pronunciation is a big issue. Bigger problem is it's very hard for me to change my accent, because I am not aware of my problem until somebody tells me.

For example, it seems to me that the following pronunciations are the same:
he as hey
her as here
....

I can't realize my wrong pronunciation until somebody points it out. Some English learners suggest me to record my voice then replay it, but it doesn't work for me. I can't find the difference between my real voice and the recorded voice. It's very frustrating. Sometimes it drives me crazy.

What a pitty that I have switched back to CHINESE dreams these years,
When would I dream in English again???

People can not get you wrong on He and Hey, they are for totally different scenarios
In most of cases under a certain context, people are confirming/matching what they expect to hear. It's easy for them to understand us though our pronunciation might be confusing.

The most difficult thing is to talk with a bad none-english speaker(just as bad as the counterpart) without a clear context....

Yes, that is true

On the first day I got three monitor on my desktop, one of my colleagues yielded to me, "star treck",
I was confused, later he explained to me - lots of screens - just like what you see in that show -- every one got a few monitors in front of them when they sit down.

I knew that movie and watched few episodes but it was hard for me to create such a legend without any tips.

我自己的方式是听广播，看电视，了解当地人使用的句子，然后尽量去模仿
同样一句how are you,有一千种回答的方式，你是不是还在使用同一种方式呢

再一个，作为一个曾经在英语教学从业过的人讲，发音有可能是和你本身的普通话发音有关系。举个例子，有些地方人l和n不分，law和now 不分，know 和 low不分

再一个就是看你在这上面写多大功夫，每天学一点，每天积攒一点，这都是学英语的好习惯。

没有情景，自己去创造情景，就像我们面试前都会想象着对方会问这样那样的问题，一样，我们可以想象着你去超市，你去买这个，买那个，或者和同事讨论的情景，这些都是会持续重复的情景，想象自己将要说的话，然后自我否定，自我纠正，知道自己满意为止，还有就是平时同事开的玩笑，不要一笑而过，不明白就不明白。

打个比方，同事给我讲坦桑马尼亚人的笑话，我们公司其中一个产品是头盔，结果同事就说，他们那里多少人，那边说，50，同事说，那好，我发100个过去，那边开始笑，这边同事说，you know，tasmanian got two heads,这个时候我还是没有得到笑点。

结果同事给我讲澳洲人不怎么待见其他地方的人。经常会互相损对方


in Tasmania, people marry their sisters and the children have two heads
