How can I become fluent in English?
怎樣說一口流利英語？
Don't set fluency targets - Never ever commit the mistake of setting a "number of words spoken per minute" kind of targets. They are destructive as they do not allow the mind to really work constructively without pressure.
別設定什麼流暢度目標——永遠別定“一分鐘應該說多少個詞”這種錯誤目標。這樣你就沒辦法正常地毫無壓力地表達，會打亂你的節奏。
Be a natural - Let things happen naturally. As you read more, and convert the read word into spoken word, your speed will gradually pick up. Do not be artificial.
自然點——順其自然。隨著閱讀量增加，把你讀到的轉化成你說出來的，語速自然會提高。別刻意追求速度。
Read, read, read - As you read more, your confidence about issues / topics / subjects will grow. You will start owning knowledge. You will develop an inner, natural strength. It is a matter of time that is starts showing on your face.
讀，讀，讀——你讀得越多，你對事情、話題、主旨的把握就越有自信。你開始積累更多的知識，培養自己由內而外、自然而然更優秀的氣質。隨著時間的沉澱，這種氣質自然會顯露出來。
Write at least 1 essay per day - It is the ultimate test of what you are learning, and if you are learning something at all. Pick a plain paper, think of a topic, and write an essay (300 words max) on it. Do it every day. It will very productively force you to raise the level of the game.
每天寫一篇文章——這是考察你到底學了什麼、有沒有學到真東西的終極考驗。拿一張白紙，想一個主題，然後寫一篇文章（不超過300字）。每天堅持。這是推動你進步的數量上的保證。
Be measured while you speak - Do not try to outgun anyone in the group. Take a few seconds before you react (2 or 3 seconds, say). That will ensure that you do not over-react, instant-react, or wrong-react.
想好了再說——不要試圖壓倒每一個組員。在作出反應之前思考2到3秒，以保證你不會表現過激、倉促或者出錯。
Talk to yourself - You will never be ashamed doing that. Keep doing it regularly. It will open up your tongue.
和你自己對話——你不會為此感到害羞的。檢測有規律地練習。這會讓你敞開心扉。
Shout, at least once a day - Go to the rooftop literally, and shout aloud. Do that for some minutes. Speak something sensible if you can. It will train the mind not to be scared of anything. Of course, if you do that elsewhere, people may beat you up :)
大喊，至少每天一次——去屋頂，大聲喊。喊幾分鐘。如果可以的話，說一些有感而發的話。這會讓你內心變得更強大。當然，如果你不分場合地喊，肯定會被打的。
Love yourself for what you are - This is perhaps the most crucial step. If you hate yourself for not being a fluent English speaker (as per whatever random benchmark you've adopted), your sense of self-worth will be destroyed. Don't let that happen to you.
接受自己，愛自己的樣子——這可能是最重要的一步了。如果你恨自己的英語不夠流利（或者隨便其他你要求自己做到的事情。）你的自我肯定就會被摧毀。不要讓這發生在你身上。
I have come across some really fast speakers who talk sense, and some who are idiots; some measured speakers who talk a lot of sense; and some slow speakers who are a pleasure to listen to.
我遇到過很多講話很快又很有道理的人，遇到過說話很快卻很愚蠢的人，遇到過說話有分寸而且很有道理的人，也遇到過一些說話慢慢的卻讓人很樂意聽下去的人。
It all depends on your profession, your eye-contact and body language, and the choice of words + depth of knowledge.
這一切由你的專業水平、眼神交流、肢體語言和用詞、知識深度來決定。
So relax, and start your personal journey of success! It will take time, so buckle up. Wish you great luck.
所以，放輕鬆，找到適合你自己的方法吧！可能要花一些時間，所以要有耐心。祝好運。
有沒有一個方法能夠讓大家輕鬆破解英語句式問題呢？有的，比如能動英語的“句式魔方”課程。
“句式魔方”幫助孩子突破英語學習中的第二難關——單詞詞義、短語積累與生成、句子生成轉換能力。
通過學習“句式魔方”，孩子最終能形成語感，內化成語言本能，熟練生成各種句子。
沒有學習“句式魔方”的孩子，要麼只能機械的用各種單詞按照漢語習慣，生成各種中式英語句子，要麼就是不得不花費大量的精力背誦各種語法規則，亦步亦趨的按照這些規則生成句子，很可能被各種語法細碎知識點搞得頭昏腦漲而喪失學習興趣。而學習了“句式魔方”的孩子，通過“句式魔方”的短語矩陣訓練，不但能熟練的生成各種短語，並在訓練的過程中，增加了語感，還能再具體的語境中自然習得單詞含義，同時“句式魔方”通過其核心句的生成以及
其它五種基本句式推導轉換的練習，讓孩子熟練掌握各種句式和常用時態的變化，最終獲得句子生成能力。學完“句式魔方”，一方面有了具體語境後，孩子就知道了單詞意義，再結合已習得的“表音密碼”基礎，孩子就可將單詞的“音”、“形”、“意”對應起來，徹底解決單詞問題；另一方面，孩子可掌握短語與句子的生成機制，以及應對各種時態與句式的轉換問題，來輕鬆自主的生成各種句子，掌握應用！
