Topic:A better method to overcome pronunciation problems Introduction: Introduce the background: A comm

28、on method to overcome a pronunciation problem is to practice reading out the same sound or word over and over. State the thesis: A better method to learn English pronunciation is to train the ear rather than the mouth. Body: Explain the main idea with a personal learning experience with the vowels i

29、n “shoot” and “short”. Conclusion:Restate that the new method is successful. Sample essay:As English learners, many of us have encountered difficulties in learning to pronounce certain English sounds correctly. The method we commonly use to overcome the problem is to practice reading out the same so

30、und or word over and over. However, mere repetition is not an effective method since the core of the problem may lie in our poor ability to hear the differences between certain sounds. Hence, to some of us, a better method to learn English pronunciation is to train the ear rather than the mouth. You

31、 will better understand what I mean once you know what I once went through years ago. When I first started to learn English back in middle school, I had a hard time distinguishing between the vowel in “shoot” and that in “short”. I had thought my mouth and tongue were set in the wrong way, which mad

32、e me unable to accurately articulate the two sounds. So I spent lots of time reading out the two sounds and words containing them. To my frustration, I made little progress. It was not until I was in college that I realized the real cause of my incorrect pronunciation was not how I set my mouth and

33、tongue, but rather my poor ability to hear the differences between the two sounds. I found out this when I watched an English movie. A character in the movie said “shoot”, but I heard “short”. Then it suddenly occurred to me that I couldnt even tell the difference between the two vowels by ear. This

34、 discovery gave me a new idea about how to overcome my problem. I listened to the pronunciation of “shoot” and “short” on audio (录音的) tapes carefully until I could hear their difference. Then I practiced reading out the two words by somewhat exaggerating the movement of my mouth. Weeks later, I succ

35、eeded in pronouncing the two sounds correctly.From then on, whenever my friends or classmates say they have difficulties with a certain sound, I will tell them what I did with the vowels in “shoot” and “short”. This “ear-training” method proves to be much better than just practicing reading out soun

36、ds or words. Task: essay writing:Topic: Life as a single child Introduction: Introduce the background. State the thesis.Body:Support the main idea with personal experiences. The way parents and grandparents treated me My feelings of growing up as a single child in the family Conclusion:Restate the t

37、hesis. Part III ReflectionCritical Thinking:1Do you think the men and women you knew when growing up had equal rights? Why do you think so? Yes, I think so. My parents worked in a big state-owned factory, where both men and women worked at similar positions and earned more or less the same amount of

38、 money. No, I do not think so. I grew up in the countryside, where even today men are dominant in the family. In those days, men had greater power in deciding the important things, whereas women generally followed what their husband says. 2. Is a womans economic status related to her status at home?

39、 Why or why not? Yes, a womans economic status is certainly related to her family status. If she earns the same or even a greater amount of money as her husband, she can have great power in making decisions on family issues.No, a womans economic status has nothing to do with how much power and respo

40、nsibilities she has at home. Husband and wife should share in housework and decision-making regardless of who earns more money to support the family.3. What do you consider as the most important elements of gender equality? One is mutual respect between the two sexes. This means that men and women s

41、hould value each others choices and opinions in daily life. The second is equal rights to participate in the society. In particular, men and women should have the same opportunities to receive education, to have a job outside the home, and to have voices heard in politics. Finally, there should be laws or regulations to guard against gender discrimination. In this way, gender equality can be ensured through legal resources.Part IV Assignment1.
