Although many Chinese students say that their knowledge of English grammar is good, most would admit that their spoken English is poor. _______41________ However, their spoken English does not have to remain ―poor‖. I would like to suggest that there may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English.

First, _______42________ Obviously the better answer is to expand their vocabulary. However, you can speak with a limited vocabulary, if your attitude is positive .Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know.

Second, _______43________ Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking because they are shy and nervous. Yet students should remember that their goal should be FLUENCY NOT ACCURACY. Your aim in writing is to be accurate following the rules for grammar and using them to get your message across. But to talk to someone in English, as quickly and well as you can, even though sometimes you may use a wrong word or tense, but it doesn’t matter because the person you are speaking to will understand and forgive you for any mistakes he hears.

Third, _______44________ You have one mouth but two ears! All that hearing is necessary for you to start speaking.

Fourth, _______45________ Instead of actively seeking out opportunities to come to them and wonder why their English always remains poor. If you have this proactive outlook, then, you will

A

It was a busy day at the grocery store and an old couple were in line behind me with birthday balloons.

From 46 they said, I knew their nephew had a twin and something had happened to the baby at birth. Though they did all they could 47 (help) them but times were tough for them.

They seemed to be too nervous and were too 48 (anxiety) to leave, so I asked whether they wanted to go ahead of me or not. They didn’t understand what I 49 (mean) at first. After knowing it, they were very appreciative. But they stood behind me.

At that time I know it had to be a significant day to them. Nothing could be 50 (good) if someone offered to help them. So I told the cashier to add the balloons to my purchases. The old couple refused at first but I insisted. I said, ―You tell your sweet nephew that there are still nice people 51 (leave) who wanted to give them 52 hand in this world.‖They thanked me over and over and the cashier was moved to tears, 53 (say) there was an angel in her line today.

Jami Hendrix 58 (use) to walk around his house with a guitar and pretend 59 (play) it like a guitar. Neither of them had 60 (they) their gift just given to them at birth. They had to work 61 (true) hard and discover that they had a gift.

Another example is Albert Einstein, the father of modern physics. He 62 (tell) that he would ever be a 63 (succeed) at any thing. But he believed in himself, and he persevered with his studies 64 his own.

I’m not trying to say that everyone can be Mozart or Einstein if they just spend a lot of time dong something But, with effort and passion, one can achieve a great deal. Without those things, you’re not going to achieve much. Luck comes to these 65 prepare for it. If you do something you love, don’t let little bumps along the road stop you.
