2、discipline and self-awareness.当然，这也算不什么，尤其对那些天生会读书的人来说来说，他们对各类学习方法可谓驾轻就熟。但实际上大多数语言学习技巧都是习惯，稍加自觉和训练便能获得。Here are the five most mon mistakes language learners make and how to correct them.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Theres a school of linguistics that believes language learni
3、ng begins with a “silent period”. Just as babies learn to produce language by hearing and parroting sounds, language learners need to practice 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
4、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 municative 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 t
5、arget 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 att
6、itude 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 subj
7、ect.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*，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。On the other hand, a learner who is keen about the target culture will be more successful in their language studies. The culturally curious students will be more receptive to the language and more
8、 open to forming relationships with native speakers.相反，对外语文化感兴趣的人更容易学好外语。对外语文化感兴趣的学习者更易于接受外语，也更愿意同当地人交往。3. Rigid thinking思维刻板Linguists have found that students with a low tolerance of ambiguity tend to struggle with language learning.语言学家发现，不太能容忍模糊性的学习者学起语言来会比较困难。Language learning involves a lot of
9、uncertainty students will encounter new vocabulary daily, and for each grammar rule there will be a dialectic e*ception or irregular verb. Until native-like fluency is achieved, there will always be some level of ambiguity.语言学习涉及很多不确定性学习者每天都遇到新的词汇，每条语法规则也都可能包含截然相反的阐释或不规则的动词。除非外语的流利程度已接近母语，否则学习者总会遇到这
10、种模棱两可的情况。The type of learner who sees a new word and reaches for the dictionary instead of guessing the meaning from the conte*t may feel stressed and disoriented in an immersion class. Ultimately, they might quit their language studies out of sheer frustration. Its a difficult mindset to break, but
11、 small e*ercises can help. Find a song or te*t in the target language and practice figuring out the gist, even if a few words are unknown.学习者如果遇到生词就立即查字典，而不试着联系上下文猜测词义，可能会变得毫无头绪、倍感吃力，最后甚至会因为受挫而放弃语言学习。这种思维定势很难突破，但稍加训练也可以有所改观。找一首外语歌曲或一篇外语文章，不去管那些生词，试着弄懂大意。4. A single method方法单一Some learners are most f
12、ortable with the listen-and-repeat drills of a language lab or podcast. Some need a grammar te*tbook to make sense of a foreign tongue. Each of these approaches is fine, but its a mistake to rely on only one.有些学习者比较擅长在语音室或跟着视频练习“听力-跟读”，有些则宁愿参照语法书摸索外语发音。这些方法都不错，但如果只单纯依赖一种方法就不见得明智了。Language learners w
13、ho use multiple methods get to practice different skills and see concepts e*plained in different ways. Whats more, the variety can keep them from getting stuck in a learning rut.方法多样化的语言学习者可以锻炼各种技能，并能从不同的角度理解概念。而且，多样化还能使他们避免学习时墨守成规。When choosing a class, learners should seek a course that practises
14、the four language skills (reading, writing, listening and speaking). For self-study, try a bination of te*tbooks, audio lessons, and language learning apps.在挑选课程的时候，学习者应选择能综合训练听、说、读、写四种技能的课程。若要自学，则应结合教材、音频及语言学习工具等。5. Fear心有畏惧It doesnt matter how well a person can write in foreign script, conjugate a
15、 verb, or finish a vocabulary test. To learn, improve, and truly use your target language, we need to speak.外文写得漂不漂亮、知不知道动词变位或能不能通过词汇测试其实真的不是很重要，重要的是你学有进步、真正学以致用。我们要的是能够交流。This is the stage when language students can clam up, and feelings of shyness or insecurity hinder all their hard work. In Easte
16、rn cultures where saving face is a strong social value, EFL teachers often plain that students, despite years of studying English, simply will not speak it. Theyre too afraid of bungling the grammar or mispronouncing words in a way that would embarrass them.这个阶段，学习者会因为害羞或不安而难以开口，导致所有辛苦付出难以收获回报。东方文化中，要面子是很重
