One student has an interesting question， “Sometimes when I speak English I am not sure if I speak right. I am not sure if I use right grammar. What should I do if I want to learn grammar？”

有個(gè)學(xué)生提了一個(gè)有趣的問(wèn)題：“有時(shí)當(dāng)我說(shuō)英語(yǔ)時(shí)，我不確定說(shuō)的是否正確。我不確定是否使用了正確的語(yǔ)法。如果我想學(xué)好語(yǔ)法，我該做些什么呢？”

There are two kinds of students. Some students study English because they want to speak. Some students study English because they want to pass2 a test. For each kind it is different.

一般有兩種學(xué)生，有些學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)是因?yàn)樗麄兿雽W(xué)會(huì)說(shuō)英語(yǔ)，有些學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)是因?yàn)樗麄兿胪ㄟ^(guò)考試。每一種學(xué)生的情況都不一樣。

First， if you need English for speaking， you dont have to study grammar a lot. When you learned your native3 language， you also learned it without studying grammar. You can learn English grammar naturally by using the language. The best way to learn grammar naturally is by reading a lot. Books are written in good grammar. When you read， you will learn grammar in the context4 of the whole sentence. You can do shadowing5 as well. When you do shadowing， you practice the good grammar. You do it naturally. You dont have to remember anything. You only copy6 sentences with correct grammar.

首先，如果你需要會(huì)說(shuō)英語(yǔ)，就不必學(xué)很多語(yǔ)法。當(dāng)你學(xué)習(xí)母語(yǔ)時(shí)，也不用學(xué)語(yǔ)法就會(huì)了。你可以通過(guò)使用英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)言而自然而然地學(xué)會(huì)英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)法。自然學(xué)習(xí)語(yǔ)法最好的方法就是多讀書(shū)。書(shū)里的語(yǔ)法都是對(duì)的，當(dāng)你閱讀時(shí)，會(huì)在整個(gè)句子的上下文中學(xué)到語(yǔ)法。你也可以做影子練習(xí)，在做影子練習(xí)的時(shí)候，也在練習(xí)對(duì)的語(yǔ)法。你會(huì)自然學(xué)會(huì)，不需要努力記住任何東西，只用照抄語(yǔ)法正確的句子。

Second， if you are one of these students who study English for passing a test， you should study specifically7 for this test. You can take the versions8 of this test from the past years and work with them.

第二，如果你是一個(gè)為了通過(guò)考試而學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)的學(xué)生，應(yīng)該專(zhuān)門(mén)為這次考試而學(xué)習(xí)。你可以用該測(cè)試近幾年的真題來(lái)訓(xùn)練。

Of course， your test will be a little different， but the structure9 is the same. The versions of the test from the past years are good training materials10. Then you should go to the test only when you can pass the training materials.

當(dāng)然，你的這次測(cè)試會(huì)有點(diǎn)不同，但結(jié)構(gòu)是相同的。該測(cè)試近幾年的真題都是很好的訓(xùn)練材料。那么，只有當(dāng)你在訓(xùn)練材料中的成績(jī)能夠通過(guò)時(shí)，才應(yīng)該去參加這個(gè)考試。
