名师支招：高二英语学习的5个"拦路虎"思维导图

下面是语言学习者最常犯的五个错误，以及改正错误的方法。

1. Not listening enough

听得不够

There’s a school of linguistics that believes language learning begins with a "silent period"。 Just as babies learn to produce language by hearing and parroting sounds， language learners need to practise listening in order to learn. This can reinforce learned vocabulary and structures， and help learners see patterns in language.

很多语言学观点认为，语言学习应该从"无声阶段"起步。但是，就好比婴儿通过收听与模仿牙牙学语一样，语言学习者也需要通过听力练习加以提高。这不仅能强化学过的词汇与结构，还有助于学习者领悟语言模式。

Listening is the communicative skill we use most in daily life， yet it can be difficult to practise unless you live in a foreign country or attend immersive language classes. The solution？ Find music， podcasts， TV shows and movies in the target language， and listen， listen， listen， as often as possible.

听力是我们日常生活中最常用的交流技巧，可练习起来就未必容易——除非你在国外生活或学习大量的语言课程。那到底该怎么办呢？找些英语歌曲、视频、电视剧和电影，然后尽可能地多听、多听、多听！

2. Lack of curiosity

兴趣不足

In language learning， attitude can be a key factor in how a student progresses.

学习语言，态度是决定学习者进步程度的关键因素。

Linguists studied attitude in language learning in the 1970s in Quebec， Canada， when tension was high between Anglo- and Francophones. The study found that Anglophones holding prejudices against French Canadians often did poorly in French language learning， even after studying French for years as a mandatory school subject.

20世纪70年代，在加拿大的魁北克省，讲英语和讲法语两派之间关系紧张，语言学家为此研究了语言学习中的态度因素。研究发现，对加拿大法语派持有偏见的英语派，即便多年接受法语义务教育，法语水平还是普遍较差。
