Question

阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要

Many Chinese students have studied English for approximately ten years, but most of them cannot even speak English correctly or fluently. In my opinion, there are several obstacles(障碍)that have caused this to happen. The main obstacle is fear! Another is the habit of mentally translating from Chinese to English and then to change these thoughts into spoken words and sentences. Many of these difficulties are caused by the way Chinese people study and learn the language.

We must learn to speak as a child does. When we are learning a second language we need to remember how we learned our native language. Learning to understand and speak a language is one of the first skills a child develops. How does a child learn the language? He listens for a time and then he tries to repeat the words. Parents give great praise for the smallest effort and slightest improvement. Therefore, the child develops courage and is excited about learning. It takes a long time before he knows anything about grammar, spelling or formal sentence structures.

As for language teachers, they should avoid criticism(批评)and be very encouraging and generous with praise. Criticism or pointing out faults too often causes students to lose self-confidence and develop a fear of speaking. The best way to motivate a student is using Praise.

The most important aspect of speaking is having self-esteem. Self-esteem is how you feel about yourself. When most Chinese people are asked how their English is, or they are told their English is, or very are told their English is very good, they immediately respond by saying, ''Oh my English is very poor. ''If you say this to yourself often enough, you will believe it. When someone compliments(称赞)you, just say ''thank you ''.

【解析】

本篇考查概要写作。文章主要讲述了中国学生英语说不好的原因，并就该问题提出了一些解决方法。

通读全文，我们可以从以下四点进行概括：因为恐惧和不正确的学习方法，很多中国学生经过10年的学习也不能流利地说出英语；我们可以像孩子学习母语一样通过多听多重复来学习英语；老师应该多鼓励和表扬学生而不是批评他们；此外，自尊心在英语学习方面尤其重要。

【高级句型一】

It is important for students to have good self-esteem in speaking English.对学生来说在说英语方面有自尊心是很重要的。句中使用了it is + adj +for sb. to do“对于某人来说做某事是怎么样的”，it是形式主语，to do是真正的主语。

【高级句型二】

Actually, we should learn to speak English the way a child learns his native language by listening and repeating a lot.事实上，我们应该用孩子学母语的方法，通过听和不停的重复来学习说英语。the way作为先行词，定语从句是a child learns his native language。先行词是the way时定语从句的关系词用that/ in which/或省略连接词，本句省略了关系词。
