How do you improve your English speaking skills, so that you can communicate more easily and effectively? These tips will help you to become a more confident speaker.
Practice where you can and when you can. Any practice is good—whether you speak to someone who is a native English speaker or not.
It’s important to build your confidence. If possible, use simple sentence structure that you know is correct so that you can concentrate on getting your message across.
Try to experiment with the English you know. Apply words and phrases you know to new situations. Native English speakers are more likely to correct you if you use the wrong word than if you use the wrong grammar. Experimenting with vocabulary is a really good way of getting feedback(反饋).
Try to respond to what people say to you. You can often get clues to what people think by looking at their body language. Respond to them in a natural way.
Try not to translate into and from your own language. It takes too much time and you will find it difficult to get an English answer right away. You don’t know how to do well. The more you want to act well, the more slowly you act. This will make you more shilly-shally.
If you forget a word, do what native English speakers do all the time,and say things that ‘fill’ the conversation. This is better than remaining completely silent. Try using ‘um’，or ‘er’，if you forget the word.
Don't speak too fast! It’s important to use a natural rhythm in speaking English, but if you speak too fast it will be difficult for people to understand you.
Try to relax when you speak and you’ll find that your mouth does most of the pronunciation work for you. Speak English at normal speed.
Final tips
—Try to become less hesitant and more confident.
—Don’t be shy to speak—the more you do it, the more confident you’11 become.
—Remember to be polite—use "please" and "thank you" if you ask someone to do something for you.

With the deepening of reform and opening-up of our country, many people dream going abroad for further study. They insisted that there are more modern research facilities, world famous professors and excellent environment in some foreign colleges and universities, what lay a perfect foundation for their future development .Besides, there are still many people who is in favor of studying at home. They argue that, for one thing, studying abroad is too expensive and therefore doesn't pay off. For another, there are no language and cultural difficulties if they study in our country. Just as the old saying going, "Every advantage has its disadvantage," so I believe both opinions are acceptable in some sense. If students have the chances and financial resources, you should seize the opportunity to go abroad and broaden their eyes. On the other hand, conditions not permitted, they can pursue their studies at top university in our country. It is not the place where they study but what they can learn in that counts.

The World Health Organization ( WHO) said that processed meat may lead to cancer.Do you still dare eat cancer-linked processed meat? Here are some comments on the website.
Bill (Australia) I’d rather live a short，pleasant life than a long，unhappy one，denying (拒絕給予）myself tasty food just because some experts say it’s not healthy. We should all enjoy the one life we have—if I had listened to every piece of health advice I would never go anywhere, eat anything or enjoy life in any way. So, I won，t change my habit. I am going to have a bacon sandwich, glass of wine, burger, can of coke whenever I feel like it.
Tim (America) Is meat really as bad as smoking? I don't think so. According to the WHO 34,000 people die worldwide per year because they eat processed meat. In 2012, 8. 2 million people died of cancer worldwide. That means if you eat a lot of processed meat you have a chance of being among the 0. 41 percent of people dying of cancer because of processed meat. I'll take the chance.
Helen (Switzerland) The WHO doesn’t say that just one bite of meat causes cancer, it is rathersaying that people should vary their diet. People who eat more meat often have other unhealthy habits. They usually eat fewer fruits and vegetables and they also often exercise less.
Van ( China) Perhaps this report will make people consider becoming vegetarians (素食者）.So for your health，the environment and future generations，it is not difficult ； it just needs a change of attitude. There is a vast variety of other delicious food available to enjoy.

With the development of science and technology, new inventions, especially new electronic products, have made people’s lives easy and convenient. But as the saying puts: A coin has two sides.
One day, I was walking in the park with a friend and his cell phone rang, interrupting our conversation. There we were, walking and talking on a beautiful sunny day and…I became invisible, absent from the conversation.
The telephone used to connect you to the absent. Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent. Why is it that the more connected we get, the more disconnected I feel? Every advance in communications technology is a tragedy to the closeness of human interaction. With email and instant messaging over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever reaching anyone. If my mom has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine.
As almost every contact we can imagine between human beings gets automated, the alienation(疏遠) index goes up. You can't even call a person to get the phone number of another person any more. Directory assistance is almost always fully automated.
Pumping petrol at the station? Why say good morning to the attendant when you can swipe(刷)your credit card at the pump and save yourself the bother of human contact?
Making a deposit at the bank? Why talk to a teller who might live in the neighborhood when you can just insert your card into ATM?
Pretty soon you won’t have the burden of making eye contact at the grocery shop. Some supermarket chains are using a self-scanner so you can check yourself out, avoiding those check-out people who look at you and ask how you are doing.
I am not against modern technology. I own a cell phone, an ATM card, a voice mail system, and an email account. Giving them up isn't wise…they're a great help to us. It's some of their possible consequences that make me feel uneasy.
More and more, I find myself hiding behind e-mail to do a job meant for conversation. Or being relieved that voice mail picked up a call because I didn't really have time to talk. The communications industry devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier.
So I've put myself on technology restriction: no instant messaging, with people who live near me，no cell phoning in the presence of friends, no letting the voice mail pick up when I'm at home.
1. Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?
A. The Advance（進步） of Communications Technology
B. The Consequences（結果） of Modern Technology
C. The Process of Communications Revolution
D. The Automation（自動化） of Modern Communications
2. Paragraphs 5 to 7 are listed as examples, which show that the use of modern communications is ___________.
A. encouraging B. disappointing
C. satisfying D. embarrassing
3. The passage implies（暗示） that _______________.
A. modern technology is bridging the people
B. modern technology is separating the people
C. modern technology is developing too rapidly
D. modern technology is interrupting our lives
4. What does the writer think to do with the modern technology?
A. We may use them no matter what others are doing.
B. We can throw them away and return to the ancient.
C. We can be far away from them forever.
D. We can use them less and communicate with the people around us.

科目：高中英語 來源：2015-2016學年山東棗莊三中高二6月學情調查英語卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解
Arthur Miller (1915—2005) is universally recognized as one of the greatest dramatists of the 20th century. Miller's father had moved to the USA from Austria Hungary, drawn like so many others by the “Great American Dream”. However, he experienced severe financial hardship when his family business was ruined in the Great Depression of the early 1930s.
Miller's most famous play, Death of a Salesman, is a powerful attack on the American system, with its aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on money and social status as indicators of worth. In Willy Loman, the hero of the play, we see a man who has got into trouble with this system. Willy is “burnt out” and in the cruel world of business there is no room for sentiment: if he can't do the work, then he is no good to his employer, the Wagner Company, and he must go. Willy is painfully aware of this, and at a loss as to what to do with his lack of success. He refuses to face the fact that he has failed and kills himself in the end.
When it was first staged in 1949, the play was greeted with enthusiastic reviews, and it won the Tony Award for Best Play, the New York Drama Critics' Circle Award, and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. It was the first play to win all three of these major awards.
Miller died of heart failure at his home in Roxbury, Connecticut, on the evening of February 10, 2005, the 56th anniversary of the first performance of Death of a Salesman on Broadway.
1.Why did Arthur Miller's father move to the USA?
A. He suffered from severe hunger in his home country.
B. He was attracted by the “Great American Dream.”
C. He hoped to make his son a dramatist.
D. His family business failed
2.The play Death of a Salesman________.
A. exposes the cruelty of the American business world
B. discusses the ways to get promoted in a company
C. talks about the business career of Arthur Miller
D. focuses on the skills in doing business
3.After it was first staged, Death of a Salesman________.
A. achieved huge success
B. won the first Tony Award
C. was warmly welcomed by salesmen
D. was severely attacked by dramatists
