Whenever I speak to a Chinese student, they always say

41、, “My spoken English is poor.” 36 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. 37 However, you can speak with a limited vocabulary, if you choose a positive at

42、titude. Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know. 38 Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking because they are shy and nervous.

43、or grammar and using the right words and spelling them correctly. However, in speaking your aim is fluency.

44、rd 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(主动的) language learners. Instead of actively seeking out opportunities to improve the

Because 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 t

However, their spoken English does not have to remain “poor”! F. Second, they are afraid of making mistakes. G. The second reas
