《新概念英语》第二册教学实践与经验总结——Lesson 9
《新概念英语》教材一共4册，在学习完第一册英语初阶（First Things First）之后，就可以进入第二册的实践与进步（Practice & Progress ）学习了。
如果说第一册是打基础的话，那么第二册学习就已经进行开始大量的阅读理解和听力理解，在积累词汇，完善语法的基础上，有目的地进行句子训练，而训练的方法是先模仿，再“创造”！
要知道：英语是一种用来交流的语言工具，而不是什么深奥的“知识”。我们学习英语就应该从一开始重视“听说”或“听力理解”，强调“英语听说” 在学习中的“引领作用 ”！
当然，除了“英语听说”之外，英语的基本技能还有阅读与写作，这些同样需要我们Practice, Only practice more, can we make more progress (只有经过大量的训练，我们才有可能取得进步）。
我在给学员教学《新感念英语》的过程中，严格遵循被实践也已证明是最佳的课堂教学法：听过的再说，说过的再读，读过的再写！
Nothing should be spoken before it has been heard.
Nothing should be read before it has been spoken.
Nothing should be written before it has been read.
这就道出了学习英语的顺序：，听 说 读 写

A large crowds of people went to the Town Hall on the New Year’s Eve to welcome the near year.

But that had nothing with the crowds of the people,They were laughing, singing and dance to cerebrate the New Year
根据摘要写作（P44-45）提成的问题，把答案组成一个段落，结果就变成了对课文内容进行创新改写，从而逐步形成自己的写作习惯！
6、补充资料（Clock to refuse the near year, 大钟拒绝迎接新年）
The title “A cold welcome” here has two meanings :First it refers to the cold weather in Winter, and secondly refers to the clock under the Town Hall , which was broken at five to twelve to refused to welcome the near year.
However, the large crowds of people gathered at the Town Hall were still happy to cerebrate the new year with laughing ，singing and dancing.
冰冷的欢迎！ 这个题目有两个意思：第一，冬天的夜晚天气寒冷；第二，市政厅的大钟在11：55的时候不走了，拒绝欢迎新年的到来。
然而，聚集在市政厅大钟下面的人们并没有因为大钟坏了而影响他们迎接新年的欢乐心情，他们载歌载舞，有笑有唱！
Where there is a will, there is way.
英语学习的四项基本技能：听、说、读、写 ，一定会在一个较短的时间内得到大幅度地提高。
Believe it or not? 信不信由你！反正我是相信了，而且早已经做到了！It is your turn to learn English in a unique way, NOT the traditional method to learn it as "knowledge".
谨记：英语是一种用来交流的语言工具，需要反复训练已达到脱口而出的目的， 而非是一种深奥的“知识”。衡量是否掌握一门语言，最终要看他运用如何，而不是他懂了多少“知识”！
正如《新概念英语》第二册教学目的：Practice & Progress (实践与进步)。只有通过不断的实践训练，才有可能学习进步，灵活运用这门语言！
