我國技職學生英文程度落後日本一大截

文章 technobabel »

Language proficiency is a matter of maturity and sophistication.
Maturity and sophistication takes time to develop and effort/incentive to sustain.
News like 英文程度落後 in Taiwan is indicative of something much more profound.
First of all, let's not care too much about 英文程度.
Bad 英文程度 is really not the end of the world.
I bet you never expect to hear that in Yoyo English Club.
The point is that I don't want to demonize those with 落後英文程度.
A society will improve its 英文程度 at its own chosen speed and style.
But for those whom still wish to improve.
I have one advice, that is act as if you don't even know Chinese.
You need to do this, not just few hours a day or few days a week, but at least few month a year.
Why is this necessary?
This will enable your brain to run in "English mode"
The beauty of this method is that your Chinese will remain unscathed.
I am not abandoning Yoyo, I am just dancing slowly away from it.

Step 2 Act as if you know a lot and ready to share.
This is no time to be humble and stingy.
There is no difference between idiot and genius when they are inactive and silent .
When you prentend to know, your brain will try to accomodate and switch to "overdrive"
You'll be amazed in how much you can accomplish.
Just like in that movie "Catch me if you can'
I am not abandoning Yoyo, I am just dancing slowly away from it.

I agree with you. Trying to look omniscient or very capable of something can become a very motivation to enhance my abilities.

Step 1 and 2 requires certain degrees of reality-defying.
It is not recommend for all you straight-shooters out there.
Never-the-less, reality is how you choose to define it.
When going gets tough, the tough looks right into the situation and denies it.
Don't be too surprised when you realized that a little dose of controlled-insanity can go a long way.
