河北省衡水市景县第二中学2020年九年级英语4月中考模拟试卷
Watching American TV and movies is a surprisingly free way to learn English. You learn modern culture, commonly used slang(俚语), improve listening, and most of all, it's super fun.
The language used in popular TV shows and movies actually represents real life. Sometimes native(母语的)speakers even use new phrases they learn from movies. The slang today is much different from the slang used by even my parents. Real spoken English changes quite quickly and it's important to know what's cool now and what sounds old and stupid.
Most people studying English by watching TV and movies make one or two MISTAKES however.
⒈Watching with subtitles(译文对白字幕).
This is a huge mistake because you learn a lot less than you think. Your eyes naturally go to the subtitles and often the translations aren't great. It's impossible to translate slang and jokes anyway. Another thing is that your brain is busy reading your own language. This really slows down the learning.
⒉Watching stuff(素材资料).
Turning the subtitles off isn't enough if you don't understand 100% of the movie or TV show. It's not enough to get the "general idea". I've watched so many movies and TV shows with people who aren't from English-speaking countries, and they always miss the real funny parts, because movies and TV shows are designed for English-speaking people. They don't need anything explained to them but you do. If you are learning English you need to have these slang expressions and jokes explained to you. Then you will totally "get" everything and your English level will improve like crazy.
No matter what your level is, I'm sure you'll learn something from this. Check it out.
