没有英语环境，如何练就完美英语？

　　1. Learn how to think in English.

　　学着用英语思考

　　This is undoubtedly¹ the best way to improve your fluency². When you are thinking about a topic, try to make English sentences in your head. This will also make you aware of what vocabulary you still need to learn in order to express yourself.

　　这绝对能增进你表达的流利性。当你思考一个话题，试着在你的脑子里用英语组织语言。这同样能帮你了解你还需要哪些单词来表达自己。

　　2. Work hard on your pronunciation

　　下功夫练习发音

　　You have access to lots of recordings³ of native English speakers. Go to our website，use your pause button and repeat sentences that you hear, trying to match the pronunciation. If you prefer movies, watch DVDs. This will improve your listening ability too. The message is: expose yourself (给自己接触某事的机会)to as much audio⁴ of native English speakers as possible.

　　你现在有机会听到很多英语母语使用者的资料。你可以上英语在线新闻的网站，如果可下，把音频下载下来，使用“暂停”键、重复你听到的话，试着去模仿发音。如果你更喜欢电影，就去看片吧。秘诀就是：尽可能多地让自己接触到英语母语使用者的音频。

　　3. Keep reading is very important

　　养成阅读习惯

　　I think that reading can do wonders for (对...产生奇效) your vocabulary and also for your grammar and fluency since books are, after all, full of examples of perfect English sentences. Instead of interacting⁶ with English speakers, do the next best thing: interact⁵ with English-language books, radio programmes and films.

　　我认为阅读对你的词汇量、语法和流利性大有好处。因为书本本身就充满了完美的英语例句。如果不能喝英语使用者直接交流，那么久退而求其次，好好利用英语书籍、音频节目和电影吧!

　　4. Try social media

　　试试社交网站吧

　　But you should also try hard to meet English speakers, and remember that this doesn't need to be face-to-face. It's great that all of you come to this blog but remember that there are thousands of other English language blogs too. Maybe it’s time to try out your English skills in 'public'?!

　　但同时你也的确应该试着多和英语使用者交流，不过记住，这可不必要是面对面的。像你们都来上我们的博客当然很好，不过全世界可有成千上万的英语博客呢，也许，是时候要试试把你的英语向公众展示了?

　　One last thought. Some of my friends work out in the gym. They put a lot of time and energy into developing amazing muscles. I have to say I've never really understood that. Just by leading my normal life, my body develops all the muscles it needs. (It doesn't need many – I have a very sedentary lifestyle!) So, I ask my friends, if you don't need muscles, why go to the gym?

　　最后想到一点：我有一些朋友常去健身。他们花了很多时间精力来练就一身好肌肉。我必须承认我从来不理解：我就算不去健身，身体也能发展出日常生活所需的肌肉呀!(我并不需要太多肌肉——我的生活方式很“宅”)。所以，我问我的朋友：如果你不需要用到肌肉，那干嘛去健身呢?

　　If you really don't have any contact with English speakers, why learn English?

　　如果你并不需要接触英语使用者，那干嘛学英语呢?

　　I'll leave you with that question.

　　我把这个问题留给你啦。
