Good pronunciation is an important part of learning English. The way your speech sounds can have a big influence on whether or not people understand what you are saying and their impressions of you. The tricky thing about pronunciation is that it’s not just a question of getting knowledge, but a physical skill that you need to practise regularly. ___36___ However, there are some ways you can practice more effectively and improve your skills faster.
It’s often difficult to find pronunciation errors in your own speech. ___37___ If you can’t find your pronunciation problems, it’s difficult to correct them. Try recording your speech with your smart phone or PC and making a note of specific areas you need to improve on.
Moreover, many English learners think that speaking fluently means they need to speak fast. ___38___ Speaking too fast reinforces (加强) bad habits and makes the speaker sound nervous and indecisive (无决断力). Speaking slowly will give you time to breathe properly and think about what you want to say next. Because it gives you time to think while you are speaking, you’ll feel more relaxed and be able to concentrate on making your English sound fantastic.
___39___ You’re teaching your mouth a new way to move and using different muscles. Focus on difficult sounds each day. Having trouble with “th” Put your tongue between your teeth (don’t bite down) and blow air out of your mouth. Feel the air move over the top of your tongue. ___40___ Singing helps you relax and just get those words out, as well as helping your rhythm (节奏) and intonation (语调). Because you don’t need to concentrate on constructing sentences for yourself, you can concentrate on making your pronunciation sound great!
A. This is wrong.
B. Pronunciation matters.
C. Pronunciation is a physical skill.
D. There are no shortcuts to perfect pronunciation.
E. There is no doubt that all your efforts will pay off.
F. Another method worth a try is learning popular English songs.
G. That’s because you are concentrating on communicating rather than the sound you are making.

Be in control. It’s just a choice of replacing TV shows by books or walking the stairs and biking to the office. ___20___ It’s not about the end goal; it’s about daily actions towards it. Monitor how you spend your time. Take back the control of your health, emotions and time.
