In the afternoon, after finishing his homework, Li Tianran turned on the computer.

Generally, all the time of evening self-study, Li Tianran spends studying and brushing questions.

The knowledge of junior high school is also relatively simple, and Li Tianran has mastered his homework very well.

Therefore, on weekends, in addition to practicing words and memorizing poems every day, Li Tianran usually reads the news or writes articles on the Internet, and most of the other time is to learn English.

In his previous life, Li Tianran barely passed the fourth level.

You may forget a lot of words in high school, but you can basically memorize simple words in junior high school, and you don't need to memorize them.

Although everyone has been learning English since junior high school or even elementary school, after more than ten years of learning, they are just a dumb Englishman, and they can't speak a few words.

He can only "see" some words, he can't speak, he can't understand, and he can't open his mouth.

When you meet a foreigner, in addition to being able to say hello, you basically can't communicate with a duck.

Now Li Tianran is learning English, no longer just for exams, but wants to be completely proficient in a foreign language.

One more specialty will give you a lot of opportunities, which will be very helpful for work and life in the future.

In life, you can feel the original flavor by chasing American dramas, British dramas, and listening to English songs, and traveling smoothly.

At work, you can also take on the small job of translation and be an English tutor, and the benefits can only be fully known by the person concerned.

Li Tianran is planning to use the 7 years of junior high school and high school to learn English well.

In the fourth year of university, I took one Korean language course, and after working, I learned Japanese.

English is the most widely spoken language in the world, and it is a compulsory key subject in middle and high school.

Some time ago, Li Tianran had already seen the rolling melons.

I also memorized a lot of words in the English dictionary, and what Li Tianran wanted to do now was to practice speaking.

Li Tianran is going to use the way of watching American dramas to help him learn English.

The correct way to watch the drama is not to sit comfortably in the computer chair, drink drinks in your left hand and snack in your right hand, and laugh while watching?

In his previous life, Li Tianran followed dramas like this, and even if he read countless dramas, he couldn't improve his English ability.

If you really want to learn English through American dramas, you need to use dramas as learning materials rather than entertainment materials, and master a set of correct practice methods.

Otherwise, it's just entertainment under the guise of learning.

If you go to the drama according to the method of learning, the entertainment will definitely be greatly weakened.

But when you really eat through each episode, you will find that this is a more interesting perspective, which can uncover the connotation and even cultural phenomenon behind many plots.

Every time you finish through an episode, you will also get an unprecedented sense of accomplishment.

After some selection, Li Tianran chose "Friends".

"Friends" is one of the most popular American dramas in history, telling the story of 6 friends with different personalities from acquaintance to acquaintance, and going through the ups and downs of ten years together.

is a well-known television sitcom.

From 1994 to 2004, there was one season per year, a total of 10 seasons.

In his previous life, Li Tianran had heard that many people learned English by watching "Friends", but Li Tianran never read it.

In his previous life, his parents did not reward Li Tianran Computer for his academic performance.

I also lived on campus in high school, and I bought a computer at home after college.

When I heard about "Friends", it was many years later, and I didn't have the heart to learn English, and I didn't want to watch some old dramas with scummy picture quality, so I haven't watched it.

As a life sitcom, the lines of "Friends" are mostly colloquial phrases.

The speed of speech is moderate, the vocabulary is relatively daily, the plot is close to life, and the pronunciation is standard and clear, which is an ideal material for both listening and speaking.

As for the plot, it is light and humorous, an episode is about more than 20 minutes, and it is very convenient to listen to and imitate this time repeatedly.

Every time you conquer an episode, you don't need to worry about where you saw it last time, and you can quickly accumulate a sense of achievement.

Li Tianran first searched for the lines and scripts of "Friends" on the Internet, and then went to the print shop and printed it.

Li Tianran read an episode of the script first, found out the meaning of the words he didn't know, wrote it in a notebook, and roughly understood the dialogue content and storyline of the first episode.

Li Tianran chose a video with Chinese and English subtitles, and then started playing.

After watching the first episode, Li Tianran marked the places he didn't understand and the places he felt were excellent, and analyzed and memorized them.

Then start watching it a second time. This time, Li naturally tried not to read Chinese subtitles, mainly to listen to and compare English subtitles.

To understand every dialogue of the characters in the play, if you really don't understand it, then stop reading Chinese and mark those in the line book.

Where the speed of speech is fast and more difficult to understand, Li Tianran dragged the progress bar back and listened to it repeatedly until he fully understood.

In this way, after five times, Li Tianran listened to the dialogue of the characters again, and basically could hear every line, immediately reflect its meaning in his mind, and fully understand the plot.

After dinner, Li Tianran continued to rewatch the first episode of "Friends".

During the meal, Li Tianran told his parents that he was learning English and practicing oral English by watching American dramas and memorizing lines.

I also showed my parents the line book I printed and the notes on it, and after reading and listening to Li Tianran's method of learning English, my parents expressed their support.

In this way, the first episode of "Friends" began to be broadcast for the sixth time.

Li Tianran began to read along, first read sentence by sentence, read sentence by sentence, press pause, and read sentence by sentence.

Li Tianran watched as much as possible to imitate the pronunciation and intonation rhythm of the characters.

Not only the pronunciation, but even the phonetic changes such as conjunction, accent, and abbreviation of words in real communication, Li Tianran also carefully experienced and learned the language habits in the discourse expression of the characters in the play.

In this way, after reading sentence by sentence, and after two more times, Li Tianran is already familiar with the plot content of the first episode of "Friends".
