昨日我和一位学习英语的网友交流中，他问我怎么提高自己英语口语的水平，我和他分享自己的“方法论”，这里与我所有的网友分享（原文是英文，我好友Nina给我翻译成汉语的，我感谢她！）：

1)尽可能地多读，熟记扩大词汇量以及短语，这样在对话时就可以脱口而出。良好的对话技巧是建立在大量的阅读和写作基础上的。（这是培养你用英语思维方式思考的好办法）

2)正如要学好游泳一样，你必须在水里练习一定的时间。要学好一门语言，{zh0}尽能多的沉浸在语言环境中。当对它掌握到一定程度时，你会如鱼得水般对它运用自如。学习游泳不是只要站在水里就能学会的，需要不断地逆流前行。如果你停止了，汹涌的水浪会将你推回原处。

3）当然学习也要有张有弛，放松的时候可以多读些书，做笔记，碰到问题可以记下来问问。像孩子一样听大人们讲话，尽量使自己融入到语言环境中，有{yt}，你会蓦然发现自己无形中掌握了这门语言。

以供参考，下面是英语的“原文”：

1）You have to read a lot and "store" a great amount of words and expression_r_rs, so as to be able to use them readily in conversation. Good conversational skills come through extensive reading and much writing (which is good for developing the art of thinking).

2）If you want to learn how to swim well, you need to spend as much time as possible in the water. If you want to learn a language well, you need to swim in it as long as possible. To become perfect in a language, you need to swim in it as a fish in a river. One learns to swim not by merely staying in the water, but by moving through it: and it's indeed swimming against the stream. If you stop, the current will take you back to where you started.

3) You might need to relax and just swim. Read more, take notes, ask questions if need be. Feel like a child listening to grown-ups and picking their language. Immerse yourself in the language and one day you won't even know how you've learned it.
