1. 听力的使用场景:
paper, teleconferencing, interview, daily communication
2.技法来源:
empirical experience(实践经验)and theoretical knowledge(理论知识)
3. Why did we fail in the past?
-1) 不够足够重视听力技能,normally focus on reading, speaking and writing, 不够重视、练得少,又怎样期待它会提高呢?
-2)提高英语听力的方式复杂、time consuming. If it is too much of a hassle or it is too inconvenient,then we do not tend to do it consistently
e.g. 听歌练听力:材料本身inappropriate, song-like quality(音乐特点), poem. 诗歌的语言往往是刻意的,deliberate。歌词chorus副歌部分,不断重复,词汇容量有限。歌手出于create vibe (营造感觉)需要,吐字并不清晰
e.g. 看电影练听力:not time efficient, subtitles, script
无法坚持的方法=无效方法
4. 正确提高听力的方法
immerse yourself in a natural environment of English communication every day for a long
stretch of time in an unconscious way(在无意识的情况下,每天听取自然纯正的英语素材,并坚持很长时间)
该方法的四个好处:
1). get used to the flow of people’s natural speech
2). get used to the intonation and stress of people’s natural speech
3). observe natural responses, avoid dramatic ones
4). learn accurate pronunciation
该方法的三个关键字:
1). unconscious 无意识
2). natural speeches
3). consistent
In other words,you should make a habit of listening to authentic English materials.

LanguageLearning Hypothesis:To truly learn a language, there is only one way: to interact meaningfully and naturally with the language
e.g. 香港,新加坡的wet market(菜市场), taxi drivers
5. 如果没有natural environment,应该如何做?
——提高passive learning/listening(被动学习)的机会
6. 推荐素材
观后思考:
1. 理论性的内容非常棒,今后需要增加自己的理论背景知识。
2. 高中在校生passive listening的详细方法没有仔细介绍,还需要探索具体做法。
