A：Hi Wang Ling, how are your studies going?

B：Well exciting, but sometimes I find them very difficult．Most of the other students can understand the lectures without d　　1　　, but I have to listen carefully and take lots of notes．

A：Yes, I know what you mean．Have you c　　2　　 recording the lectures?

B：No, I didn’t think we were a　　3　　 to．

A：Oh it’s no problem, you just have to ask the lecturer’s p　　4　　．

B：Oh, that’s a good idea．And I don’t get used to the teaching m　　5　　．We are often asked to have discussions．You know we seldom did this in China．

A：Well, discussions are really difficult for you at the b　　6　　, but they are really a good way of learning．The other students have different o　　7　　 and you can learn much from them．So during a discussion listen carefully．If there’s something you don’t understand, you can raise q　　8　　．

B：I see．

A：Anyway, don’t always worry about your studies．You need to r　　9　　 yourself．Say travel to some places in Britain．

B：That sounds a good idea．I am so glad to have a f　　10　　 like you in Britain．Thank you very much．

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳的选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

　　Although many Chinese students say that their knowledge of English grammar is good, most would admit that their spoken English is poor．Whenever I speak to a Chinese student, they always say, “My spoken English is poor．”　　1　　 I would like to suggest that there may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English．

　　First, they fail to find suitable words to express themselves due to a limited vocabulary．　　2　　 However, you can speak with a limited vocabulary, if you choose a positive attitude．Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know．

　　　　3　　 Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking because they are shy and nervous．Yet students should remember that their goal should be FLUENCY NOT ACCURACY．Your aim in writing is to be accurate following the rules for grammar and using the right words and spelling them correctly．However, in speaking your aim is fluency．You want to get your message across, to talk to someone in English, as quickly and as well as you can, even though sometimes you may use a wrong word or tense, but it doesn't matter．　　4　　

　　The third reason is that not enough attention is paid to listening．You have one mouth but two ears! All that hearing is necessary for you to start speaking．

　　Fourth, most Chinese students are reactive rather than proactive language learners．Instead of actively seeking out opportunities to improve their spoken English they passively wait for speaking　opportunities to come to them and wonder why their English always remains poor．　　5　　

A．The person you are speaking to will understand you and make allowances for any mistakes he hears．

B．They may try to avoid making similar mistakes next time．

C．Obviously the better answer is to expand their vocabulary．

D．If you have this proactive outlook, then you will see English opportunities wherever you go．

E．However, their spoken English does not have to remain “poor”!

F．Second, they are afraid of making mistakes．

G．The second reason lies in the reluctance of using what has just been learned．
