    学好英语的18条法则

    1.What is language for? Some people seem to think it is for practicing grammar rules and learning lists of words——the longer the words the better. That’s wrong. Language is for the exchange of ideas, for communication.
    语言到底是用来干什么的呢？一些人认为它是用来操练语法规则和学习一大堆单词——而且单词越长越好。这个想法是错误的。语言是用来交换思想，进行交流沟通的！
    2. The way to learn a language is to practice speaking it as often as possible.
    学习一门语言的方法就是要尽量多地练习说。
    3. A great man once said it is necessary to dill as much as possible, and the more you apply it in real situations, the more natural it will become.
    一位伟人曾说，反复操练是非常必要的，你越多的将所学到的东西运用到实际生活中，他们就变的越自然。
    4.Listening and imitating should always go together. Use the LIP method! Listen－Imitate－Practice！
    听和模仿一定要同时做，使用“LIP”方法：听、模仿、操练！
    5. Use all your senses to learn English. You must hear English, read English, touch English, smell English, and taste English. Feel English with your heart. Immerse yourself in this language. Begin to think in English.
    运用一切感官学习英语。你必须听英语、说英语、触摸英语、闻英语，还要尝尝英语的味道。用心去感受英语。让自己沉浸在这门语言当中。学会用英语思考。
    6. Relax! Be patient and enjoy yourself. Learning foreign languages is just a piece of cake.
    放轻松！要有耐心，并且享受英语带来的乐趣！学习外语只不过是小菜一碟。
    7. Rome wasn't built in a day. Work harder and practice more. Your hardworking will be rewarded by God one day. God is equal to everyone!
    冰冻三尺，非一日之寒。更加努力的学习，更加勤奋的操练，你所付出的一切将会得到上帝的报答，上帝是公平的。
    8. Use a dictionary and grammar guide constantly. Keep a small English dictionary with you at all time. When you see a new word, look it up. Think about the word——use it. in your mind, in a sentence.
    经常使用字典和语法指南。随身携带一本小英文字典，当你看到一个新字时就去查阅它，思考这个字——然后学着去用它，在你的心中，在一个句子里。
    9. Try to think in English whenever possible. When you see something, think of the English word of it; then think about the word in a sentence.
    一有机会就努力去用英文来思考。看到某事时，想想它的英文单词；然后把它用到一个句子中去。
    10. Practice tenses as much as possible. When you learn a new verb, learn its various forms. A thousand words will not leave so an deep impression as one deed.
    尽可能多的操练时态。学习一个动词的时候，要学习它的各种形态。千言万语不如一个行动
    11. I would also like to learn more about the culture behind the language. When you understand the cultural background, you can better use the language.
    我想学习和了解更多关于语言背后的文化知识，当你理解了文化背景，你就能更好地运用语言。
    12.Keep an English journal.Try to write a few sentences about your day and then blurt them out as many times as possible before you go to sleep. This will teach you to “think” in English. This habit will also help you live a move organized and fruitful life. Besides, you will score higher on your composition exams!
    坚持写英语日记。写几个句子描述一下你的一天，然后在睡觉前尽可能多地大声操练。这个方法可以教会你用英语“思考”。这个习惯还可以帮助你生活得更有条理、更有成效。此外，考试时作文你也可以拿更高的分！
    13.Choose materials that interest you! Reading about things that you like will naturally make learning more enjoyable and efficient. Everything is easier if you enjoy doing it!
    选择让你感兴趣的资料！阅读你喜欢的东西自然会使学习变得更愉快、更有效。你喜欢做，事情就会更容易！
    14.Make your friends proud by teaching them some English sentences. You can become an excellent teacher through tutoring your friends. Teaching is a great way to learn! Also remember, learning English can make people happier, feel younger and live longer!
    教你的朋友们英语，让他们感到骄傲。教朋友的过程中你会成为一名出色的老师。教学是学习的极好途径！别忘了，英语学习会让人更快乐、更年轻、活得更长久！
    15.Don’t be afraid to ask for help. The more times you ask for help, the more powerful your English will become. Never hesitate to ask! Learn as much as you can from as many different people as you can! An eager student will always find a teacher!
    不要害怕寻求帮助。你请求别入帮越多的忙，你的英语就会越厉害。不要犹豫，尽管发问！尽可能从不同的人身上学到更多的东西！求知欲强的学生总是会找到老师！
    16.Keep English constantly in your mind by listening, speaking of reading every day! Constant exposure will make it much easier to master this language. If you review only once a week, you will have a hard time remembering what you’ve learned.
    每天听，每天说，每天读，让英语时刻留在你脑中！持续的接触会让你更容易掌握这门语言。如果你只是一个星期复习一回，要记住你学的东西就太难了。
    17.Keep a positive attitude about English. If you think of English as a burden, it will be one! If you think of English as fun and exciting, you will practice more often and make progress more quickly!
    学英语要有积极的态度。如果你认为英语是个负担，它就是个负担！如果你认为英语有趣又刺激，你就会更经常地练习，进步得更快！
    18.Learning any language takes a lot of effort, but never give up. We will hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope!
    学习任何语言都是需要花费很多努力，但绝不要放弃。从绝望中寻找希望，人生终将辉煌！

    商务英语中最容易犯的5个错误

    在竞争激烈的商务世界，你需要占领所有的优势。并且无懈可击的英语能让你独占鳌头。你认为太难实现吗？一点也不！看一下你的竞争对手常犯的商务英语错误列表并马上占领领先地位：
    Personal vs. Personnel
    密切注意这些单词的拼写和重音！"Personnel"是个名词意思是公司的职员。例如"Our company has the best personnel in the industry."重音落在单词的末尾。"Personal"是个形容词意思是私人或是个人。"I'm requesting a day of annual leave for personal reasons."重音容落在单词的开头。如果你不仔细，你就可能说成"personal meeting"而不是"personnel meeting."
    Executive
    "executive"是公司的管理人员。如果你正在向访客或是客户介绍你公司的高层executives，那就要注意单词的发音喽！如果你将重音落在 "u"上，那么"executive"马上就听起来象"execute" - 将某人杀死或判死刑。
    Present? Presentate? Presentation?
    当你作presentation时present信息。Present是个动词意思是将某物呈现给别人。presentation是常在商务中推出新信息时使用的一种形式。许多人－就算是一些英语的本土人士－ 认为"presentate"是 "presentation."的动词形式。不要犯同样的错误！
    "I look forward to hearing from you."
    这个短语通常用于商务信件中。但是学习英语者常写成，"I look forward to hear from you."这不正确并且让英语本土人士听起来有些滑稽。动词 "hear"在这个短语中总是要有"ing"的。
    Headquarters and Information
    许多的英语学习者把"headquarters"这个单词的"s"漏掉而在"information."后加上了"s"。Headquarters是个单数名词意思是公司的总部："I'm going to headquarters this weekend to meet with the CEO." Headquarters是个微妙的单词因为它是以"s."结尾的。看起来象是个复数名词！但是漏掉"s"会把headquarters变成个动词，"to headquarter."
    在另一方面，许多学习者在information后加上了"s"。大多数人的理由是如果他们需要很多的信息，他们就需要把这个单词变成复数，例如，"I need informations on overseas study programs."但是信息是个不可数名词（它没有复数名词）。你只需要说，"I need some information."

    用来接第三人称单数
    第三人称单数：除了you（第二人称）和I（第一人称）之外，其它所有表示单个事物的词。
    比如：she-她，he-他，it-它，cat-猫，cup-杯子，等

    She is Mary. [她是Mary。]
    She is a chicken girl. [她是个胆小鬼。]
    注解：guy通常用来指男性，如果说女孩子是胆小鬼，就是chicken girl或是直接用chicken。
    He is Tony. [他是Tony。]

    比如：a football fan，a chicken guy，a film，a sweater，a pie，an apple，an eggplant

    2] 几个......
    在表示两个、三个、几个、多个人或事物后加s构成名词复数；
    但有如下特殊形式：
    . s，sh，ch，x结尾和以辅音字母+o结尾的名词后（piano、photo例外）加es：
    . 以字母f或fe结尾的名词构成复数形式时，把f或fe改为v，再加es

    Buddy you're an old man, poor man
    Pleading with your eyes gonna make you some peace someday
    You got mud on your face
    You big disgrace
    Somebody better put you back into your place

    We will, we will rock you
    Singing
    We will, we will rock you
    Everybody
    We will, we will rock you
    We will, we will rock you
    Alright

    摇滚万岁

    伙计，你是个只会大声嚷嚷的孩子
    在街头鬼混，希望有一天能成为大人物
    你搞得灰头土脸
    狼狈至极
    把铁罐到处踢来踢去
    唱吧........

    我们要让你摇滚起来
    我们要让你又摇又滚

    老兄，你是个年轻人，一条硬汉
    在街头叫嚣，总有一天要接管这个世界
    你脸上流著鲜血
    颜面尽失
    到处挥舞著旗帜

    我们要让你摇滚
    唱吧........
    我们要让你又摇又滚

    老兄，你老了，穷光蛋一个
    眼里祈求著宽恕，总有一天可以使你得到平静
    你搞得灰头土脸
    狼狈至极
    最好有人能把你赶回老家去

    我们要让你摇滚
    唱吧........
    我们要让你又摇又滚
    大家一起唱
    我们要让你摇滚
    我们要让你又摇又滚
    好极了........
