How To Learn English!

Here are some tips which may help you to master the English Language!

Speak without Fear

The biggest problem most people face in learning a new language is their own fear.  They worry that they won’t say things correctly or that they will look stupid so they don’t talk at all.  Don’t do this.  The fastest way to learn anything is to do it – again and again until you get it right.  Like anything, learning English requires practice.  Don’t let a little fear stop you from getting what you want. 

Use all of your Resources

Even if you study English at a language school it doesn’t mean you can’t learn outside of class.  Using as many different sources, methods and tools as possible, will allow you to learn faster.  There are many different ways you can improve your English, so don’t limit yourself to only one or two.  The internet is a fantastic resource for virtually anything, but for the language learner it's perfect.

Surround Yourself with English

The absolute best way to learn English is to surround yourself with it.  Take notes in English, put English books around your room, listen to English language radio broadcasts, watch English news, movies and television.  Speak English with your friends whenever you can. The more English material that you have around you, the faster you will learn and the more likely it is that you will begin “thinking in English.” .

Listen to Native Speakers as Much as Possible

There are some good English teachers that have had to learn English as a second language before they could teach it.  However, there are several  reasons why many of the best schools prefer to hire native English speakers. One of the reasons is that native speakers have a natural flow to their speech that students of English should try to imitate.  The closer ESL / EFL students can get to this rhythm or flow, the more convincing and comfortable they will become. 

Watch English Films and Television

This is not only a fun way to learn but it is also very effective.  By watching English films (especially those with English subtitles) you can expand your vocabulary and hear the flow of speech from the actors.  If you listen to the news you can also hear different accents.

Listen to English Music

Music can be a very effective method of learning English.  In fact, it is often used as a way of improving comprehension.  The best way to learn though, is to get the lyrics (words) to the songs you are listening to and try to read them as the artist sings.  There are several good internet sites where one can find the words for most songs. This way you can practice your listening and reading at the same time.  And if you like to sing, fine.

Study As Often As Possible!

Only by studying things like grammar and vocabulary and doing exercises, can you really improve your knowledge of any language. 

Do Exercises and Take Tests

Many people think that exercises and tests aren't much fun.  However, by completing exercises and taking tests you can really improve your English. One of the best reasons for doing lots of exercises and tests is that they give you a benchmark to compare your future results with.  Often, it is by comparing your score on a test you took yesterday with one you took a month or six months ago that you realize just how much you have learned.  If you never test yourself, you will never know how much you are progressing. Start now by doing some of the many exercises and tests on this site, and return in a few days to see what you've learned. Keep doing this and you really will make some progress with English.

Record Yourself

Nobody likes to hear their own voice on tape but like tests, it is good to compare your tapes from time to time.  You may be so impressed with the progress you are making that you may not mind the sound of your voice as much.

Listen to English

By this, we mean, speak on the phone or listen to radio broadcasts, audiobooks or CDs in English. This is different than watching the television or films because you can’t see the person that is speaking to you.  Many learners of English say that speaking on the phone is one of the most difficult things that they do and the only way to improve is to practice.

Finally

Have fun!

Ideas for Classroom Rules

Following are some ideas for classroom rules that teachers can use as they create their own rules. Ideally you should keep classroom rules down to a manageable limit of 3-8 rules.

1.                    Come to class on time. Standing outside the door and rushing in after the bell has begun to ring will constitute a tardy. You must be INSIDE the door when it begins ringing to be counted on time.

2.    Begin the start up activity within 1 minute after the tardy bell. Directions will be on the projection screen or the board. Please do not wait for me to remind you to begin since I need to take roll and attend to other duties for the first few minutes of the period. When I begin class, directions for the start up may be taken down, so don't delay.

3.    Attend to personal needs before coming to class. I have been instructed not to give passes to lockers and to limit passes, so please do not ask for a pass unless you have a true emergency.

4.    Remain in your assigned seat unless you have permission to get up . Throw scraps away at the end of the period on your way out.

5.    Do not eat candy or other food in class unless you have been given special permission. School sponsored sales will be permitted during the last 5 minutes of class IF we are finished with the lesson and permission is granted. Be sure to ask first.

6.    Bring required materials every day unless you are otherwise directed.

7.    Talk only when permitted.Be aware of the situation since quiet talking is allowed in some situations and speaking to the entire group without raising your hand may be allowed in others. I will remind you once and expect compliance.

8.    Use polite speech and body language. Unkind teasing and impolite behavior is unacceptable. Please do not ask to step outside to spit.

9.    Do not cheat. Students caught cheating will receive a zero and a phone call home. Both the student who shares his work for an independent assignment AND the person who copies it will suffer the same consequences. I expect you to do your own work and to be sure no one can copy it.

10. Follow the teacher's directions immediately. Keep me happy and I'll do a better job for you!

نكاتي در مورد روش مطالعه در زبان آموزان:

• مطالبي را انتخاب كنيد كه مناسب با سطح دانشتان باشد. يعني نكات دستوري و تعداد واژه هاي متن انتخابي آنقدرساده نباشد تا انگيزه مطالعه را ازدست بدهيد و يا زياد مشكل نباشد تا از رجوع مكرر به كتابهاي دستور يا فرهنگ واژه ها خسته شويد.


• تا آنجا كه ممكن است مطالبي را بخوانيد كه نوارهاي شنيداري آنها نيز در دسترس باشد. يعني آنچه را مي خوانيد، بشنويد

.
• هرگز واژه ها را خارج از متن حفظ نكنيد. سعي كنيد هر واژه يا اصطلاح را درون متن فهميده و به خاطر بسپاريد. زيرا ممكن است معني بسياري از واژه ها بسته به موضوع متن و نحوه قرارگرفتن آنها درجمله تغيير كند. درضمن، مطالعه واژه ها درون يك متن سبب مي شود تا مغز رابطه اي منطقي و معنادار بين كلمات ايجاد كرده و آنها را بهتر به خاطر بسپارد.


• براي يافتن معني واژه ها از فرهنگ هاي تك زبانه اي استفاده كنيد كه واژه را توضيح داده و مثال مي آورد.


• از هر دو ورودي ذهنتان يعني گوشها و چشمها به خوبي استفاده كنيد. گوش كردن و خواندن هر دو به يك ميزان در يادگيري تاثير مي گذارند.


• هر روز يك اصطلاح يا ضرب المثل را به خاطر بسپاريد.


• به انگليسي فكر كنيد و صحبت كنيد. اين كار در ابتدا مشكل به نظر مي رسد ولي رفته رفته با وسعت دايره واژگاني تان آسانتر مي شود.


• هر مطلبي را با هر موضوعي با شرط اينكه متناسب با دانش شما باشد، مطالعه كنيد. شايد براي شروع، مطالعه داستانهاي ساده شده (simplified stories) كه بر اساس آساني و دشواري سطح بندي شده اند، مناسب باشد.


• در پايان به نوآموزان زبان انگليسي توصيه مي شود تا مطالعه زبان را با نظارت يك آموزگار شروع كنند تا با روشهاي يادگيري و منابع درسي موجود بيشتر آشنا شوند

WHAT IS THE TOEFL?

 

The TOEFL is a comprehensive English language examination required by more than 3,000

colleges and universities in the United States, Canada, and other parts of the world. In addition, foreign born professionals frequently need a TOEFL score for certification to practice their profession in the United States or Canada.

 

The TOEFL is a timed test that consists of the three sections listed here.

THE TOEFL Section 1 Listening Comprehension 50 questions 35 minutes

 

Part A Statements 20 questions

SECTION 1: LISTENING COMPREHENSION

 

This section of the TOEFL test your ability to understand spoken American English. You will hear taped conversations to which you will make responses. Part A and B contain samples of informal American English. Idiomatic expressions and two-word verbs are common in these parts.

 

Single Statement

 

In Part A you will hear a single statement made by a man or a woman. In your test booklet, there are four sentences. You must choose the sentence that is closest in meaning to the one you heard.

 

YOU WILL HEAR:

 

To get to the post office, cross the street, go three blocks, and you'll see it right on the corner.

 

YOU WILL SEE:

 

(A) The post office is right on the corner.

(B) The post office is at the next corner.

(C) The post office has a cross near it.

(D) The post office is three blocks away.

 

The correct choice is, which most closely gives the same meaning as the sentence you heard. It is important for you to know that if similar sounding words or the same words appear in an answer choice, that answer choice is seldom correct.

 

Short Dialogs

 

Part B contains short dialogs followed by a question about what the people said in their

conversation. Generally, key information is found in the second speaker's sentence. You will need to understand the meaning of the conversation and also the context , such as the time or place in which it could occur. The correct choice directly answers the question.

 

YOU WILL HERE:

 

(Man Did you get to go shopping last night'? (Woman) They'd already locked the doors by the timeI got there.

 

(Man) What does the woman mean?

YOU WILL SEE:

(A) She arrived in time to shop.

(B) She was too late.

(C) She locked the doors.

(D) She had to buy the door.

The correct choice is. Since the doors were locked when she arrived, she could not have goneshopping. Note that the other choices use words heard in the conversation. Choices that contain such words are usually not correct.

Extended Conversation / Minitalks

 

In Part C you will hear an extended conversation or a minitalk. The English in this section is

generally more formal and academic, typical of English conversation or lectures that take place in a university or college setting. After each conversation or minitalk, there are between four and eight spoken questions about its content. Choose your answer from among the four choices that appear in your test book-let. Look at the example here.

 

YOU WILL HERE:

 

Man: Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to this tour of one of the nation's most

important cities, Chicago. Before we begin, I'd like to give you some background information that will make the tour more enjoyable for you. The city was founded in 1837. Its strategic location on Lake Michigan quickly made it the center of commerce for the Midwest section of the country. It is

currently the third largest metropolitan area In the United States. The city's site is generally level, built mostly on glacial plain. The narrow Chicago River extends one mile inland from Lake Michigan, where it splits, dividing the city into North, West, and South sides. Chicago's weather is

subject to rapid changes, but generally the climate is cold and windy in the winter, and hot and

humid in the summer.

Woman: What gave Chicago an advantage over other Midwest cities?

YOU WILL SEE:

(A) Its level site.

(B) Its location on Lake Michigan.

(C) Its large population.

(D) Its location along the Chicago River.

According to the minitalk, would be the correct choice. Remember that you will not have a written

copy of the speaker's talk or conversation and you will only hear it once. You must concentrate on

details, such as names, dates, and the main idea of the selection that you hear. Do not read the

choices as you listen to the talk. Listen care-fully and try to remember what you hear.

 

SECTION 2: STRUCTURE AND WRITTEN EXPRESSION

 

This section contains two types of questions, both designed to test your ability to recognize correct

style and grammar in written English. The sentences are academic; ones that you typically find in

college level texts, journals, and encyclopedias. The sentence topics include the social sciences,

physical and life sciences, and the humanities.

Structure

The structure questions test your ability to recognize correct structure and word order. These

questions consist of a sentence with one or more words missing. You must make the choice that

best completes the sentence. Here is an example of this type of question.

YOU WILL SEE:

__________ a short time after the Civil War, Atlanta has become the principal center of

transportation, commerce, and finance in the southeastern United States.

(A) While rebuilt

(B) It was rebuilt

(C) Rebuilt

(D) When rebuilt

The correct choice is (C). The other choices make the sentence incorrect or awkward.

Written Expression

The written expression questions test your ability to recognize errors in grammar or expression.

These questions consist of complete sentences with four underlined words or phrases. You must

identify the underlined part of the sentence that needs to be changed in order to make the sentence

correct. An example follows.

YOU WILL SEE:

The Navajo Indians have displayed a marked ability

A B

to incorporate aspects of other cultures into a changing,

C

flexibility lifestyle

D

The correct choice is (D). Flexibility, a noun, appears where an adjective must appear. In addition to

inappropriate parts of speech, be sure to check for missing words and extra words that are

inappropriate for the context.

SECTION 3: VOCABULARY AND READING COMPREHENSION

Good reading skills and an ample vocabulary are keys to doing well on all sections of the TOEFL.

This section of the TOEFL specifically test these skills. Many TOEFL test takers complain that they

do not have enough time to carefully answer all questions in this section. It is very important that

you follow the instructions in this book so that you will use all the allotted time to your advantage.

Vocabulary

The first questions on this section will test your English vocabulary. There are 30 academic

sentences, each containing an underlined word. You must choose the word that has the same

meaning from among the four choices. Here's an example.

YOU WILL SEE:

The United States has instituted a set of forest conservation measures to maintain forest land.

(A) accepted

(B) published

(C) established

(D) suggested

The word that is closest in meaning to the tested word, instituted, is choice (C). Further hints for

vocabulary questions can be found in Chapter 2.

Reading Comprehension

Your ability to read and understand college level reading material is test on this part of the TOEFL.

You will find five or six reading passages, each followed by four to seven questions. You must

work quickly and efficiently. Here is a sample passage.

YOU WILL SEE:

A lens has one or more curved surfaces that refract or bend, light rays passing through it to form an

image on a surface beyond the lens. Examples of such surfaces are the retina of the eye or a movie

screen. The distance from the lens to the focal plane is known as focal length. In cameras,

telescopes, and similar devices, the lens is turned on a screw-thread mounting to adjust the focal

length. This action allows focusing of images of objects at various distances. In the human eye,

focal length is adjusted by muscles that alter the lens curvature. Light rays of different colors are

bent by varying degrees as they pass through a curved surface. This causes a distortion of the

image, known as chromatic aberration. In cameras, sharp images are obtained by arranging two or

more lenses so that the aberration of one cancels out the aberration of another. Such an arrangement

of lenses is called an achromatic lens.

QUESTION:

According to the passage, what is focal length?

(A) A curved surface that refracts light.

(B) The distance from the focal plane to the lens.

(C) Adjustment by the muscles that alters lens curvature.

(D) The degree that light rays of different colors are bent by the lens.

This is a factual question. The information needed to answer this question is directly stated in the

text. Choice (B) is the correct answer. Some questions will ask you to draw conclusions based on

material in the passage, other will ask about the main idea of a selection. Some may even ask what

information does not appear in the passage.

THE TEST OF WRITTEN ENGLISH

Most TOEFL test sessions now require the Test of Written English. The TWE will test your ability

to respond to topics that you may find on typical college level writing assignments. It will test your

ability to

express yourself as well as your organizational skills . The score on this test is reported separately

and is not used to determine your TOEFL score.

SOME HELPFUL HINTS

On all parts of the TOEFL, be sure to answer every question. If you must guess, choose choice (B)

or (C) since they are slightly more likely to be the correct choice than (A) or (D).

Watch your time! Be sure to wear a watch and be aware of the time you have remaining in each

section. Do not waste time reading directions or example in your test booklet. You should become

familiar with these before you take the test. When you are told to begin, go directly to the first

question. When time has expired on a section, you may not return to it. Work quickly and

accurately. If it seems obvious that you will not finish a section within the time limit, guess or

choose answer (B) or (C) in order to complete the section.

Prepare yourself for the test. In addition to this book, Barron's How to Prepare for the TOEFL

provides you with practical hints, tapes with sample questions, model test, and a grammar review to

help you maximize your TOEFL

Striving for success without hard work is like trying to harvest where you have not planted.

 تلاش براي موفقيت، بدون سخت كوشي مثل محصول چيني در زميني است كه در آن كشت نكرده ايم.

 's better to wear out than to rust out.

 

      از پاي در آمدن بهتر از پوسيده شدن است.

 

I feared failure until I realized that I only faion't try.

 

از شكست مي ترسيدم اما سر انجام دريافتم تنها زماني شكستني هستم كه از تلاش دست بر مي دارم.

Heaven forbid
خدا نكند
It is heaven's will
خواست خداست
Heart and soul
 با دل و جان- با تمام قوا
 
Don't put the blame on me
كاسه كوزه رو سر من نشكن

to leave someone in the lurch
كاشتن كسي
.To steer a middle course.
كج دار مريز رفتار كن

Which son of bitch did it?
كار كدوم حرومزاده اي بوده ؟

To give it an appearance.
كلاه شرعي گذاشتن

He didn't turn a hair
ككش هم نگزيد

We heavebt god the slightest chance.
كلاهمون پس معركه است

We shall fall out
كلاهمون تو هم ميره

Black head
كله پوك

I am your humble
كوچيك شما هستم
All joking apart
از شوخي گذشته

I paid dear for it
برام گرون تموم شد

I could kick myself for doing it
گردنم بشكنه كه اين كار رو كردم

To act as a bully
گردن كلفتي كردن

A wolf in sheep's clothing
گرگ در لباس ميش

He wouldn't hear it
گوشش به اين حرفا بدهكار نيست

Appearances are deceptive
گول ظاهر رو نبايد خورد

Keep the wolf from the door
گليم خود رو از آب كشيدن

To set the fox to watch geese
گوشت رو به دست گربه سپردن

Not to overtake someone
بگرد كسي نرسيدن

My blood will be on your head
خون
من به گردن شما
