Speaking is not equal to learning.
You don't need to study grammar too much. The first suggestion may sound strange to many students who begin to learn English, but it is exactly important. 1. However, if you want to speak fluently, you should try to speak English without thinking too much of grammar. Studying grammar will only slow you down and make you hesitate. You will think about the grammar rules instead of naturally saying a sentence like a native.
You can't translate every word. When you try to speak English, you do not need to translate every word from your mother tongue. 2. Another problem you may meet is that you will misuse grammar rules that you have learned in your mother language.
3.The reason why many people can learn well is that they often practice. But in order to speak English fluently, you need to practice speaking. When you study, don't just listen.
Speak out loud the material you are listening to and practice what you hear. Practice speaking
out loud until your mouth and brain can do it without any effort. 4.
You should study correct material. A phrase you often hear is, "Practice makes perfect." This is not completely true. Practice only makes what you are practicing permanent. If you practice the incorrect sentence, you will have perfected saying the sentence incorrectly.5.
A. You should try to speak fluently.
B. You need to practice speaking what you hear.
C. By doing so, you will be able to speak English fluently.
D. If you want to pass examinations, you should study grammar well.
E. If you listen more, you can speak correctly and fluently sooner or later.
F. Therefore, it is important that you study material that is commonly used by most people.
G. The order of words is probably completely different and you may be both slow and incorrect by doing this.
NASA has opened the door to the next generation of space discovery by announcing great plans for a base for humans to live on the surface of the moon forever.
The project to build a base on the moon will begin soon after 2020, with astronauts living there within four years.
The project comes after several excellent scientists and environmentalists asked humans to look beyond Earth to ensure the survival of the species (物种).
Eventually, the moon will be a base for humans to explore the solar system and one day land on Mars.
NASA began planning for the first moon landing since 1972 when George Bush, the US president, announced his new plan for space exploration four years ago.
NASA has already talked about the design of the Orion spacecraft that will replace the old space shuttle fleet in 2010.
The plan for the moon base, however, is the first detailed explanation of how NASA intends to prepare for the first manned exploration of deep space and a possible Mars mission within 30 years.
Scientists also believe that the south pole on the moon contain rich natural gases such as the rare helium-3 that could be used as fuel for the generation of nuclear power. Besides, teams of astronauts living there for six months at a time would mine for hydrogen and oxygen to make water and possibly rocket fuel.
1.The reasons why NASA has begun the plan to explore space include the followings except ________.
A. to protect Earth
B. to explore deep space
C. to finish Mars mission
D. to show how powerful the USA is
2.In the future, when people fly to the moon, they will probably not bring with them too much ________
