论文部分内容阅读
In this article， we share our techniques for improving your motivation for learning English as a foreign language. 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.
在本文中，我们会分享提高英语这门外语的学习积极性的技巧。当我们学习英语的时候，我们一直在使用这些技巧，当我们需要在英语以外的领域提高我们的积极性时，我们仍然要用它们。
Imagine Yourself in the Future
想象一下未来的你
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 e-mail to people from all over the world.
想象一下，你可以像用母语说话一样和以英语为母语的人士交谈。想象一下其他人和你一样把英语说得那么好。想象一下给世界各地的人写电子邮件的可能性。
It is helpful to read an article about the advantages of knowing English well. You should know that it is possible to learn English really well. Just look at other people who have done it.
讀一篇关于学好英语的好处的文章是很有帮助的。你应该知道学好英语是可能的，看看其他已经做到了的人。
Remember that You Are Already Good
记住，你已经很好了
You already know some English （you’re reading an article in English right now）. That’s a big success！Now it’s time for more successes. Time to start using powerful methods of effective learning. Time to gain an impressive knowledge of English.
你已经懂一些英语了（你现在正在读一篇英文文章）。这是一个巨大的成功！现在是取得更多成功的时候了;是开始采用高效学习方法的时候了;是获得令人印象深刻的英语知识的时候了。
Remember There Is a Lot That You Don’t Know
记住，还有很多你不会的
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.
你很好，但你的英语可能不太好。你可能看不懂英语电视、读不懂英语书、不容易和英语母语者交谈、写不了没有错误的信等等。
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： punctuation2， 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.
你千万不要以为你的英语很好。即使你是班上最好的学生，也要努力找出薄弱环节并加以改进。当你学会说好英语后，标点符号、很少使用的语法结构、很少使用的单词、理解“街头语言”都不成问题。现在，你的问题可能更多的是基础知识方面：发音错误、词汇量小、现在完成时态和条件句等语法问题。
Use English Whenever You Can
尽量多用英语
Probably the most important way to improve your motivation is to use English.
