How do you improve your English speaking skills, so that you can communicate more easily and effectively? These tips will help you to become a more confident speaker.

Practice where you can and when you can. Any practice is good—whether you speak to someone who is a native English speaker or not.

It’s important to build your confidence. If possible, use simple sentence structure that you know is correct so that you can concentrate on getting your message across.

Try to experiment with the English you know. Apply words and phrases you know to new situations. Native English speakers are more likely to correct you if you use the wrong word than if you use the wrong grammar. Experimenting with vocabulary is a really good way of getting feedback(反馈).

Try to respond to what people say to you. You can often get clues to what people think by looking at their body language. Respond to them in a natural way.

Try not to translate into and from your own language. It takes too much time and you will find it difficult to get an English answer right away. You don’t know how to do well. The more you want to act well, the more slowly you act. This will make you more shilly-shally.

If you forget a word, do what native English speakers do all the time,and say things that ‘fill’ the conversation. This is better than remaining completely silent. Try using ‘um’，or ‘er’，if you forget the word.

Don't speak too fast! It’s important to use a natural rhythm in speaking English, but if you speak too fast it will be difficult for people to understand you.

Try to relax when you speak and you’ll find that your mouth does most of the pronunciation work for you. Speak English at normal speed.

Final tips

—Try to become less hesitant and more confident.

—Don’t be shy to speak—the more you do it, the more confident you’11 become.

—Remember to be polite—use "please" and "thank you" if you ask someone to do something for you.

Dear Ms. Wang,

I am writing to inform you of some arrangements about my composition course and Latin course next year.

I’ve decided to re-establish the 5-paragraph essay as the goal for the composition course. I interviewed some of my former students and they all agreed that being able to write critically and continuously was important to them.

So next academic year, Term 1 will be like always: sentences to paragraphing. And Term 2 will work toward the 5-paragraph essay. The final 3 weeks of Term 2 will be reserved to introduce writing for TOEFL and CEE. By that time, if the students have done their job correctly, then they should be able to write quite well.

As for the Latin course, I will post notices around campus next week so that the students will understand what’s on offer before I actually introduce the course. A number of students already emailed me about the course.

I am sure you don’t understand what a big deal our opening this program at our school is. People around the world are interested in what we plan to do. There are many rewards available to the students who succeed in the course. Please share what I have said with the administration. I want them to understand the importance of this course. The reason I have contacted these colleagues (actually Oxford contacted me) is that I have confidence in our students and in myself. I know that when those professors meet our students and hear them speaking and reading Latin, they are going to be amazed. It will open all sorts of doors for students that they never even thought of knocking on.

Well, that’s it for now. I’ll see you soon.

Yours,

Edward Johnson

Seal(海豹) seizes raft

This seal really rocked the boat when he found himself an unusual place to hang out. After the seal came across a boat in the harbor where he lives, he fell inside and wouldn’t budge for four days.

“One morning the seal just pulled himself aboard,” says Ed Stubbings, who owns the boat-turned-bed. Probably thinking the boat was a rock, the seal made himself at home. The seal didn’t move an inch-----not even to eat or drink.

Stubbings was a little worried that the 500-pound animal might sink it. Luckily on the fifth day, the seal fell back into the water and swam off.

Alligator(短吻鳄)gets new tail

When Mr. Stubbs the alligator swims through his pool at the Phoenix Herpetological Society, he looks like any other gator-----except that his tail is made of rubber. Mr. Stubbs is the first alligator known to wear an artificial tail.

Mr. Stubbs was brought to the society nine years ago. “His tail was missing when he arrived,” says President Russ Johnson. Mr. Stubbs couldn’t walk or swim properly. “We showed him how to swim in the water,” Johnson says. “But that hurt his back.” Later, the scientists used rubber to build an artificial tail attached to Mr. Stubbs’s back legs. “Once we put the tail on him, he walked with ease,” Johnson says.

Gone are the days when being a celebrity(名人) meant reaching the top of the social ladder. With the Internet, people now no longer need to be actors, sports stars or politicians to be famous.

You may still remember the time when Furong Jiejie, or Fengjie, appeared online. All of a sudden they were the talk of the town because of their crazy clothes and abnormal values.

But when the word wanghong, or “Internet celebrity”, was named one of Yaowen Jiaozi magazine’s “popular cyber words” in 2015, its meaning had changed. Those who are popular in the world of wanghong are largely famous for their heavily Photoshopped selfies(自拍) and the special lifestyles they advertise on social media.

The same thing is happening overseas as well. There are many women addicted to posting photos. This has led to the rise of “Instagram Husbands”, men who are willing–or most likely forced–to take photos of their wives or girlfriends for their Instagram accounts.

But what wanghong offer their fans is much more than many pretty pictures. “There is a longing for the effortless of life,” commented China Youth Daily.

Though their lifestyle may seem “effortless”, some wanghong take great pains to run their Taobao stores, communicate with their fans and think of ways to keep their viewership(收视率), for example.

Zhang Dayi, a famous wanghong with over 4 million followers on Sina Weibo, revealed some of her secrets for attracting fans. “Usually people look up to celebrities at a 45-degree angle. But I reduced that angle to 15 degrees, because no one likes to strain their necks too much,” she said. Her social media strategies include being very kind to fans. “As soon as you let down your guard, people will start to approach,” she said.

1.What is the author’s attitude toward Furong Jiejie?

A. Negative B. Concerned

C. Favorable D. Doubtful

2.How do men get the name “Instagram Husbands”?

A. They take and share photos to attract fans on the net.

B. They open Instagram accounts for their girlfriends.

C. They show off their photography skills on the internet.

D. Their duty is to take pictures of their wives or girlfriends.

3.What can we infer from Zhang Dayi’s words?

A. Celebrities are hard to meet.

B. Being a internet celebrity is not easy.

C. She has the most followers on the net.

D. Being friendly is a way of attracting fans.

4.What can be the best title of the text?

A. The age of Internet is coming.

B. Internet offers fast track to fame.

C. Internet celebrities set examples for people.

D. To become Internet celebrities, beauty isn’t a must.

The World Health Organization ( WHO) said that processed meat may lead to cancer.Do you still dare eat cancer-linked processed meat? Here are some comments on the website.

Bill (Australia) I’d rather live a short，pleasant life than a long，unhappy one，denying (拒绝给予）myself tasty food just because some experts say it’s not healthy. We should all enjoy the one life we have—if I had listened to every piece of health advice I would never go anywhere, eat anything or enjoy life in any way. So, I won，t change my habit. I am going to have a bacon sandwich, glass of wine, burger, can of coke whenever I feel like it.

Tim (America) Is meat really as bad as smoking? I don't think so. According to the WHO 34,000 people die worldwide per year because they eat processed meat. In 2012, 8. 2 million people died of cancer worldwide. That means if you eat a lot of processed meat you have a chance of being among the 0. 41 percent of people dying of cancer because of processed meat. I'll take the chance.

Helen (Switzerland) The WHO doesn’t say that just one bite of meat causes cancer, it is rathersaying that people should vary their diet. People who eat more meat often have other unhealthy habits. They usually eat fewer fruits and vegetables and they also often exercise less.

Van ( China) Perhaps this report will make people consider becoming vegetarians (素食者）.So for your health，the environment and future generations，it is not difficult ； it just needs a change of attitude. There is a vast variety of other delicious food available to enjoy.

1.What if Bill has to change his habit?

A. He’ll become a vegetarian.

B. He’ll live a pleasant life.

C. He’ll feel unhappy.

D. He’ll go on a diet.

2. What does Tim think about eating processed meat?

A. Very unhealthy. B. Quite safe.

C. Full of risks. D. Not worthwhile.

3. What may be Helen’s response to WHO’s warning?

A. Caring little about it.

B. Eating whatever she likes.

C. Varying the diet and doing exercise.

D.Taking a diet without meat.

4. Who have the most similar viewpoints?

A. Bill and Tim.

B. Tim and Helen.

C. Helen and Van.

D. Bill and Van.
