My view of oral English(reply to written & oral English)

Dear friends:

Sometimes, I am little bit interested in the reason why people should practise

their oral English in front of a mirror when there is no real partner. Why can

not practise when you are walking or doing something else. In other words, you can speak to yourself in English anywhere at anytime if you are eager to improve

your verbal English. You can raise your voice of speaking when there is no people around you, while if there are many to-and-fro people, you can just whisper to

yourself. Of course, provided you really do not care about the feeling of others toward your behavior, just keep what you are doing. Owing to my current major,

I seldom have the chance to practice my oral English in my class so that I should creat the environment of learning by myself. I will speak to myself in my mind on some topics and sometimes make a dialogue, although it is really weird. Sure, I am not crazy about doing that. It is only at some spare and boring time that I will practise what I mentioned above. I do not belong to that kind of person

who don't take others' opinion into consideration, so I won't speak out English

when there are many people around me just for practising.

Oral Enlish plays a very important role in real life. Some people can't find the right word when they communicate with others in English with the results that

they have the impression that they are poor at oral Enlish. With the time goes

by, they become more careful of picking up more exact word to express himself and that sometimes doesn't function very well. The fear of speaking English will come forth unconsciously accordingly.

Sometimes, it is not that they don't know the word to express but they have no

idea about which word should be chosen to make their expressions more profound.

It is self-evident that the process of picking up the ideal word will take some

time and another topic will appear by the other side and certainly the perfect word you choose has no chance of presenting itself. At this rate, the process of

picking up the ideal word will repeat all the time. After one round of conversation, you seldom got the chance of speaking.

The way of learning English varies people to people. Some are prone to learn from others' and follow the steps and advice of those victors in this field. While, some are inclined to find the way by themselves and can conclude their unique

way of learning. There is no criterion to measure which is better or worse.

As far as I am concerned, I am fond of reading those wonderful articles and some expressions, sentence structures, and different views toward life.In the same

way, I like reading some not-so-well-written articles not only because I can try my best to find the mistakes made in the article that can assure I won't make

the same mistakes anon but also because I can gain some very particular viewpoints toward the society and diverse experience of life.

I am not willing to be forced to receive some certain kinds of knowleage. Being forced seems to be abhorrent to every instinct of my body. I will become more

active to do those things out of my willingness. Whereas, I have to do many things most of the time and have already gotten used to this situation:-)

Warmly,
