第一篇:英語演講:一個獲獎者的英語學習之路大全
Three mirrors reflect the way I learn English
After I came back from the “21st century-Ericsson cup”7th national English Speaking competition with the award of the “Most promising Speaker”, people kept asking me the same question over and over again.“How did you learn English, especially as a Non-English major?” Actually I believe that a hundred people would have a hundred of ways to learn English well.However, I would like to share my personal experience of English learning with those who have the enthusiasm for improve their English.Since I have set up three mirrors in my prepared speech in hoping that they would guide our young generation on the way to globalization, I would like to maintain three mirrors here to reflect how I learned English.The first mirror, I assume, should reflect a steady foundation.This involves my first few years of English learning, which I consider as the key factor of all my achievements in the years to follow.At that time I entered the middle school attached to Xi’an Jiaoton University, I could only say my ABCs while others in my class could at least communicate in simple English.All the tales about the frightfulness of learning English then popped up in my mind and made me feel scared.Fortunately my first English teacher was very experienced in enlightening her students on English learning.She was a kind woman with a charming smile.But her homework assignments were not easy task: They required us to read after the tape for 20 times and recite the whole text.So it was quite natural that most of my classmates only recited the short essay within a short time and then went to play.But my fear of not being able to say a single word, made me sit down and immerse myself in what the teacher had asked me to do.Before every English class we would have an on duty report to let the students say something according to what they had learned.My first presentation in class was to recite a dialogue.But to my great surprise, my teacher praised me for my pronunciation.I tittered because I had imitated the readers in the tape for at least 20 times until finally I couldn’t find any differences between our pronunciations.And I did not realize that this little prize given by my teacher began to influence my English learning magically.I believe the first three years of English learning guaranteed the possibility of my further achievements because by means of imitation I built a foundation of good pronunciation and by means of reciting I restored the basic element of English language.On the whole, I would like to show my sincere thanks to my first English teachers.Yu Zhiling, who is now still caring for my growth.The second mirror I would like to mention here reflects an effective way of English learning.I still stick to my point of view that different people have different techniques to learn English well.But there are some methods that seem to be obviously ineffective.Let’s first have a look at the four important skills for students to master: reading, writing, listening and speaking.I have placed them in order of difficulty.Reading is the easiest skill.It is also the most widely found English language skill amongst Chinese student, Writing is a more active skill than reading.However it is still a little easier than speaking, as there is plenty of time to choose the right words look in the dictionary for help, and make corrections.Listening is the third most important language skill to learn.It is far more difficult to listen and understand spoken English than to read English in a book or in a letter.Speaking English may be the most difficult of the four language skills.It is an active skill, and requires the student to put words together into sentences without much time to prepare, and with no time for correction, yet it is the most exciting skill to have, as it opens up wonderful channels of communication with people of others cultures and countries.But this is just what we lack.More often than not I found some of the students who get high marks in their exams showed an inability to communicate with people in English.And this enabled me to understand deeper what my first English teacher has always emphasized: listening and speaking keeping ahead;reading and writing following up.I believe this is the rule of learning a language because we learn a certain language to communicate.As we conquered the most difficult parts: listening and speaking, we would easily master the writing and reading skills.Then how can we make it? I have seen lots of diligent students in the early morning reading aloud their English texts without paying any attention to their nearly unacceptable pronunciation.I feel sorry for those students because their hard work deserves a much better English level if they improve their method of learning.I found that my way of learning English that I formed from middle school still works today.By listening to tapes and imitating the speakers one can improve his pronunciation within a short time.By reciting classic essays one can enrich their language as well as enlarge their vocabulary.As a non-English major, I like to set aside a certain period of time for English learning everyday, usually an hour or at least half an hour.I utilize this precious time by listening to tapes and imitating their content and then reciting the short passages I like.To be frank, “Crazy English” has always been my favorite.This is definitely not intended to flatter.Instead of dividing my attention between too many materials, I’d rather concentrate on one particular resource at a time such as CE, not only because of its abundant content and native English, but also because of the benefits it has brought to me through intensive reading, listening and reciting, I believe that studying English by using these intensive methods will help you to get twice the result with half the effort.Last but not least, the third mirror reflects the interest in English learning.Confucius once said, “Knowing it is not as delighting in it.” Nowhere is this more true than on the matter of English learning.My experience in English learning initiated quite passively, but before long my interest in it began to inspire me to continue the process.To testify my English skills and to stir up even greater enthusiasm, I used to participate in various kinds of competitions.When I was preparing for a nation-wide English competition in high school, I got to know the “21st Century Cup” English speaking competition for the first time as I used their scripts as my preparing materials.I envied those contestants in the “21st Century Cup” very much.Their English skills and their quick response made me feel swooning.Although I did not get a good rank in the nation wide competition for high school students, I had begun my wildest dream of participating in the 21st Century Cup.Even after I became an engineering student I still held onto my dream, that it would come true some day.Because I can always find something new to challenge me, and set up those challenges as my goals to achieve, I never find English learning a dull job.I believe I will forever cherish the glorious moment when I was on the stage of the “21st Century-Ericsson Cup” 7th national English speaking competition, and my wonderful memories there without any doubt will add passion to my English learning in the days to come.Since the theme of this year’s competition was “globalization”, we have enjoyed various visions from contestants on thinking of what we young people should do to meet the challenges and the opportunities posed by globalization.But there’s one thing for sure: good English and communication skills are the gateway to the world arena.I hope some of man and woman in China who have conquered English to hold hands together to build up the bridge between China and the rest of the world with the world’s most widely used language!
第二篇:“CCTV杯”英語演講大賽獲獎者的學習策略探微_2010
【“CCTV杯”英語演講大賽獲獎者的學習策略探微】
摘要:本文研究分析了一些優秀語言學習者,某校“CCTV杯”英語演講大賽獲獎者的學習策略,他們都有明確的學習目標,善于使用多種學習策略,對英語教學有所啟示,教師應幫助學生培養學習策略。
關鍵詞:演講獲獎者;優秀語言學習者;學習策略
一、引言
“CCTV杯”英語演講大賽是全國性的英語演講賽事,要求選手具有較高的演講水平、綜合能力、思辨能力以及文化溝通能力。某校從2006年開始組隊參加比賽,先后有7人9次參賽,最好成績為所在省賽區二等獎。學習策略是指有目的地對整個學習過程進行設計、組織、監控、反饋、選擇的活動方式、技能、方法和手段,它以現代認知心理學為理論依據,研究學生的學習思維活動和認識過程。在我國,優秀語言學習者的研究得到了深入的開展,但是對英語演講獲獎者這類優秀語言學習者的研究卻不是太多。英語演講比賽是對學生的英語綜合應用能力的一種考察。選手要想在比賽中勝出,不僅需要具有扎實的語言基礎,而且必須具備較強的邏輯思維能力、思辨能力以及豐富的知識面,還需要冷靜沉著的大賽經驗。因此,英語演講獲獎者不同于一般考試高分獲得者。對于這些優秀語言學習者的學習策略的調查研究對英語教學具有一定的指導意義。
二、學習策略的分類
1)O'Malley和Chamot(1990)將學習策略分為三類,即元認知策略、認知策略和社會/情感策略。元認知策略指學生的自我學習意識和學習計劃,要求學生培養學習監控和評價意識,它是保證學習活動高效的高級執行技能;認知策略指直接運用于具體的語言習得任務的方法和途徑;社會/情感策略為學習者提供更多接觸語言的機會。2)Oxford(1990)將策略分為兩大類,即直接策略和間接策略。直接策略包含記憶策略、認知策略和補償策略;間接策略包含元認知策略、情感策略和社會策略。3)Cohen(1998)把策略分為語言學習策略和語言使用策略。學習策略的選擇對提高學習能力有著決定性的影響,任何運用得當的學習策略都更有可能使學習者獲得學習上的成功。越是成功的學習者,使用的學習策略越多。
三、對演講獲獎者的學習策略的分析
通過對問卷調查的分析,演講獲獎者使用最多的學習策略是元認知策略,說明這些獲獎者在英語學習過程中具有明確的學習目的,知道如何安排和計劃學習,有針對性、靈活、恰當地運用學習策略,并知道如何進行自我監控和自我評估。除了元認知策略外,他們還擅長使用認知策略、補償策略、社會策略和情感策略。演講獲獎者在學習策略運用等方面具有以下特征:(1)有明確的英語學習目標,制訂相應的學習計劃;2)注重語音語調,注意模仿;(3)喜歡分析語言結構,尋找語言規律;(4)注意分析自己學習中的進步與不足,探索適合自己的學習方法;(5)注重語言的交際功能,借助手勢、表情等進行交流;(6)懂得如何控制情緒、調整學習態度;(7)擅長運用元認知策略,并且善于將它和其他學習策略結合起來使用;(8)在英語學習中能克服焦慮的心理,控制自己的情緒并不斷鼓勵自己。
四、對英語教學的啟示
英語教師不僅是英語知識和技能的傳授者,而且也是學習策略的培訓者。
(1)讓學生充分認識到學習策略訓練的重要性。(2)給學生提供充足的有關學習策略的信息。(3)幫助學生確立學習目標,制定學習計劃,選擇學習策略,讓學生學會反思及評價自己的學習策略。(4)在教學中采用“以學生為中心”的模式,讓學生成為教學活動的主體,促使學生有意識地關注自身學習的認知過程,有效激發學生的內存學習動機,培養學生的自主學習技能。研究表明,這些優秀語言學習者都具有很強的自學能力,有適合自己的學習策略,會不斷進行自我總結、反思,乃至生成新的策略。因此,教師應該在教學中滲透學習策略,幫助學生培養適合自己的學習策略,提高學習效果。參考文獻:
