9、 for their summer holidays、In the 1980s and 1990s, youngpeople in the UK became wealthier on average、As a result, they started to go abroad in groups toplaces such as Spain and Greece British holidaying habits have begun to change, however、Becausegoing abroad is more expensive, more British people a

10、re choosing to spend their summer holidays inthe UK、How to Speak Good En glishGood morning,ladies and gentlemen、Having authentic and polished oral English is everylearners dream, however,(1) many of my students spent a lot of years,money and efforts on speakingthis Ian guage well but failed to be ab

11、le to com muni cate and speak out.the reas on to which might bemainly the lack of con fide nee and right methods、(2) Many En glish lear ners have no courage to starta topic and face m awkward sile nee after the in itial greet ing was give n,thus the conversation comesto an end、Here I would like to g

12、ive you some advice on how to speak good En glish、There are 3-Dmethods (Dialogue, Discussion and Debate) to improve your eloquenee、First of all,itimportant to be involved in dialogues、I notice that many students do well in speaking whe n con duct ing a prepared speech or prese ntati on in class、(3)

13、But speak ing Englishflue ntly is not just about making prese ntati ons and givi ng speeches、It is about express ing yourideas and in sight on the mm mundane of thi ngs around you、The ability to make dialogues is very important in social communication、(4) Topics forcasual con versati on could in elu

14、de the weather, educati on, music, curre nt affairs, hobbies, travel,etc、Do not always ask foreigners“what is your name and how is your job”find one to practice your English with、Before going to English Corner, please read up on yourarea of interest and try framing sentences to express your opinions

15、、(5) Talk about it withsome one close to you or some on es higher tha n yours, so you can check for your Ian guageaccuracy and fluency、Secondly, discussion and debate play a key role、(6) I always enlighten my students thatwhe n you want toyour ability and academic achievements are very important and

16、 imperative,but the most important of allis your eloquence to communicate in the personal relationships、Elite may not have eloquenee, butan eloquent person must be an elite、Of course, other methods may work,too、Many students do want to improve their Englishby all means、(7) Its setivident that all of

17、 us like taking down notes when we are listening tothe lectures given by teachers at school、But its not a correct way to speak good languag8)Uni ess you use the Ian guage every day, you will n ever know how good you are at it、Ask your friendswho are good at English to help、Try to speak it as much as

18、 possible, and let them interrupt youwhenever you make mistakes and ask them to correct you、(9) Do not feelembarrassed to make mistakes,for that is the only wav you will learn、Enjoy losing face and enjoymaking mistakes because that is the way how the process of acquiri ng flue ncy in a Ian guage occ

19、urs、Then, there are attitudes that count most、(10) If you do want to learn something well, youare supposed to have con fide nee and passi on、And that is why I hope all of you can be con fide nt andfor what you have done and what you will be doing、Fin ally, I want to say: try to be con fide nt and pa

22、y to book and you know what you are gett ing、Butmore people are traveling today than ever before, for a greater variety of reasons than ever before、(1-2) So vacati on ren tals offer probably greater opti ons now, depe nding on the kind oftrip that you want to take、Youre literally renting somebodyhom

23、e, right?W: Yes、(2-1) You usually think itgoing to be more expensive automatically than a hotelwould be, bug thatoften not the case、The only concern that I might raise would be that, with a hotel,if you have any problems, you go and compla in to the man ageme nt、You are going to n eed thatsame level

24、 of service if you have any problems in a ren tal type situati on、M: The answer is yes、I mean, you neednworry about that, (2-2) because they can providelevel of service to you、But you have to do a little bit more homework on your own to guara ntee that,first of all, you are protect ing your in vestm

33、he protein into the brain、Fruits andvegetables, (7-1) milk and dairy products, all are great for raising mood、And crunchy foods, likepopcorn, are fabulous for making us feel happy、M: OK、Then you got a very happy dinner, right?W: YesM: OK、Let s talk about stressed-out food or foods that you do tend t
