浙江省诸暨市浣东初级中学2024-2025学年九年级上学期9月月考英语试题
If you live in a place where most people speak the language you are learning, you may use the language for several hours each day. So, it may become a part of your "inner speech". In other words, you start thinking in that language. Your mind stops trying to translate ( 翻译) things from your native language into the second language. But most learners live in places where English is not the main language. This may be true for you. You may not have many chances to practice English. You may even be self-taught.
When you speak, your speech might be slower than you would like. This is because your mind is still translating from your first language, which can also sound unnatural. English, like every other language, has its own sentence patterns.
The good news is that thinking in English can bring you a huge step closer to proficient speakers! It is not very difficult, but it does work hard and practice. On today's Education Tips, we will share some exercises that can help.
Think in individual(单独的)words
Most experts note that it's best to start small. So, a good first step is to think in individual words. Look around you. What do you see? In your head, try to name each object in your mind.
Describe unknown words
If you're looking at your house and you see your garage, but you can't think of the name in English, you can say, "It's the place where I put my car. " Or you can say, "It's next to my house. I keep things there. "
