雅思写作范文：语言学习的方法

In order to learn a language well, we should also learn about the country

as well as the cultures and lifestyles of the people who speak it.

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

我完全赞成这个断言，即：要学好一门语言，我们还应该了解这门语言的国家、文化和人民的生活方式。

I fully support the assertion that to learn a language well, we should also

learn about the country as well as the cultures and

lifestyles of the people who

speak it.

先来看看我们一般情况下是如何定义“真正学好一门语言”的。按照我的理解，学好一门语言意味着能够妥当地使用它。这里，对于妥当使用它来说，我们需要知道：因为文化上的差异，很多东西会所以而非常不同。比如，中国人常通过问“吃了吗?”来表达问候，而这对于西方人来讲便构成了午饭或晚饭的邀请。所以，缺乏了对不同国家文化方面的知识，就会引起对所发送或接收到的信息的错误理解，结果便会导致误解。这样一来，我们就不能说我们讲得妥当，再进一步，我们就不能说我们讲得好。

Let’s first see how we normally define “learning a language really well”.

By my understanding, learning a language well would mean being able to speak the

language in a proper way. Here, with speaking it properly, we need to know that

due to cultural differences, many things are just so

different from culture to

culture. For example, the Chinese often greet each other by asking ‘Have you

taken your meal?’ which, to the Western ears, would make an invitation to lunch

or dinner. Therefore, the lack of a knowledge of the cultures of different

countries will give rise to wrong interpretations of the message issued or

received and as a result, lead to misunderstandings. In this way, we can not say

that we are speaking the language properly and further, we can not say that we

speak it well.

第二，我们学习一门语言的最终目的是用它与讲这门语言的人实行交流，主要就是母语为这门语言的人。设想我们对美国或英国什么也不了解，包括其政府、人民、传统以及其它方面，你想你能妥当地讲英语，从而与美国人或英国人达到有效的交流吗?我要说：至少我是做不到的。

Second, the ultimate purpose for us to learn a language is to use it in our
