龙卷风网络收音机介绍

英语对你的生活是必需的，不是为了考试。然后创造一个小的英语环境。

首先下载“龙卷风网络收音机”免费软件，安装后就可以收听VOA，BBC等几百个英语电台的英语节目了。如果你的英语发音特别不准的话，你可以先从VOA的慢速英语来练习口语的正确发音。（听）

有了这个环境，我们开始解决第一个问题，记忆单词——这是一切的基础。学英语首先要学会正确的发音。新东方的4＋1课堂的语音语调，美国英语班，李阳的《疯狂英语》教材，郭锐峰的ASAP英语教材，邱政政的《TOEFL新听力》一书都可以很好的解决这个问题。（发音）

词根词缀记忆法，刘仁的《十天突破雅思真题词汇》是方法学讲的最好的，刘毅的《英文字根字典》是拆分最好的，蒋争的《英语词汇的奥秘》是分类最好的，朗文词典第三版。（记忆单词）

关于通过看电影学英语的方法，新东方的俞敏洪，杜伟老师建议，根据你的实际能力，先看2~3遍没有字幕的，然后再看一遍有字幕的，如果还搞不定，下载该电影的剧本，把剧本过一遍，先把剧本搞定（这已经是阅读问题了），然后再看一遍有英文字幕的，保证看着字幕理解是没有问题的。如果字幕的版本不理想，可以到射手网搜索下载，是全免费的（看电影学英语）

口语往往是衡量一个人英语水平的标准，可以根据走遍美国的磁带或者VOA的Special English进行语音语调的模仿。要求你大声的朗读，坚持背诵（reciting）。语言看懂了不是你的，背下来才是你的，背下来再说出来才真正是你的。在口语的发音方面，李阳疯狂英语的方法很值得推荐。针对中国人英语发音的缺点，李阳总结了五个发音秘诀：
双元音和长元音发音要饱满
I made a terrible mistake
短元音收小腹，短促有力
let‘s get together again soon
great minds think alike
I am so prode of you
Go Home
Sweat Dream
连读
I am working on it
I will think it over
省略
I don”t know what to do
咬舌头
3333
It’s the same thing
精确地发音有助于你正确的表达你的思想不被误解，例如下面的单词如果你发音不准的话，很有可能造成误会：
bad [i:] bed
beach bitch *
sheet shit
fool full

这是英语播音员常使用的方法。首先要保证的是，你的发音是要正确的。然后先做热身，尽最大可能噘嘴，发“屋”的音，然后尽最大可能咧嘴，发“一”的音，然后再噘嘴发“屋”的音，再转成咧嘴的“一”音。然后快速的转换，知道两腮酸痛为止。然后双手轻拍双颊，做一下简单的放松。接着找一份阅读材料来阅读。但是要注意，读的时候要咬住牙齿不要分开，然后尽量正确的发音，把这篇短文度2遍。你会觉得这么做很难受，本来发音就不准，现在更没谱了。没关系，当你觉得两腮酸痛的时候，张开嘴，以正常的方式再朗读刚才的短文，你就会发现，你的发音已经有质的突破了，元音自然就饱满了，嘴自然就张开了，自己会明显的感觉到发音到位了。（发音）
