English is a very important subject for Chinese students, and now they have to learn it even in the kindergarten. Some parents are willing to spend a lot of money to let their kids master English better. While the fact is that college English teachers find that most Chinese students’ English are in the low level, this problem lies in the language background. The traditional way pays attention to the grammar. Students’ ability of speaking English has been ignored, because it works nothing in getting high marks. What’s more, as they barely have the chance to speak with local people, so they can’t master English well. Today, with the development of technology, we can have access to all kinds of resources, it is very convenient to listen to the foreigners and get used to their accent. Only the lazy students refuse to learn it well.

　　英语是中国学生非常重要的一门学科，现在甚至在幼儿园阶段就开始学习这一科目了。有些父母愿意花很多钱让他们的孩子更好的掌握英语。而事实是，大学英语教师发现大多数中国学生的英语水平处在比较低的状态，其实这个问题在于缺少语言背景。传统的方法是注重语法学习，而忽视学生说英语的能力，因为说的能力它并不会让学生拿到高分。而且，他们很少有机会与当地人说话，所以他们英语掌握得并不好。今天，随着技术的发展，我们可以获得各种各样的资源，听外国人说话、适应他们的口音是非常方便的。只有懒惰的学生才会拒绝去学好英语。
