English Corner 弋果新鮮事

今天弋果新鮮事要討論的主題是: 學英文最常發生的錯誤。Today we're going to discuss some of the biggest mistakes people make when they're learning English. 這個主題將分兩集來談，首先來聊聊學英文時最常發生的幾個問題: Being so afraid of making a mistake that you don't practice (因為害怕出錯而不練習說英文); Memorizing countless words but not focusing on how to describe (一直死背新單字但沒有學習怎麼形容或使用); Not practicing regularly (沒有經常性的練習); Not being well rounded (不夠多元化); Ignoring the target culture (沒有注意文化上的語言變化) (For more about this topic, please listen to the show.)
