啞巴英語 “Mute English” among Chinese Students
Itis a serious phenomenon that a large number of college students in our countrycannot talk with others in English or speak English fluently or correctly. Whatwould result in this phenomenon and how can we solve this problem?
這是一個嚴重的現象，在我們國家有很多大學生不會用英語和他人交流或者說一口準確、流利的英語已經成爲一個嚴重的現象了。這個現象會導致什麼樣的結果呢，我們又該如何解決這個問題呢？
Asfar as I am concerned, several reasons can account for this phenomenon and Iwould like to list some of them. First, lack of practice is the most importantfactor—most students in China do not pay enough attention to their oral Englishpractice because they think they will not use it in their career nd, lack of the language environment is another reason. The majority ofstudents in china will not be willing to speak English unless they arerequested in class in that they will feel weird and uneasy if they use Englishto talk with others. In addition, some students are too shy and nervous tospeak English fluently.
我認爲有幾個理由可以解釋這一現象，我想列出其中一些。第一，缺乏實踐是最重要的因素——在中國大多數學生都不重視英語口語實踐，因爲他們認爲在他們職業生涯中不會經常使用到它。第二，語言環境的缺乏也是另一個原因。大部分中國學生不願意說英語，除非他們要求在課堂上說，因爲如果他們用英語交流的話他們會感到奇怪和不安。此外，一些學生太害羞和緊張而無法說一口流利的英語。
Takingabove general reasons into accounting, I would like to make some suggestions toavoid “mute English”. For one thing, to correct the attitude is the mostimportant. Students have to adjust their attitude towards oral English so thatthey will have further motivation to practice it well. For another, practice isequally important. As the saying goes, “practice makes perfect”. Students shouldpractice their oral English as much as possible. Only in this way can they geta satisfying result and avoid “mute English”.
根據以上的原因，我想提出一些建議來避免“啞巴英語”。首先，端正態度是最重要的。學生必須調整自己對英語口語的態度，這樣他們纔會有更深的動機來把英語口語練好。另一方面，實踐是同樣重要的。俗話說，“熟能生巧”。學生應該儘可能多的練習英語口語。只有這樣他們才能得到一個令人滿意的結果，避免“啞巴英語”。
