BrazilBrazil A A Roberto wants to know how to become more fluent in English and this is something you want to be able to do fast First if you get to meet English speakers much the important rule is to listen not just to native speakers of English but aslo to very good users of English If you don t then listen to the radio TV or films in English The next step is to notice what it is that speakers of English do which makes them sound fluent The first trick 诀窍 is to probobly have confidence Some people think they might make mistakes Don t worry about that Your listeners will usually try hard to understand you a few grammar mistakes aren t going to worry them What you do need to worry about is pronunciation especially stress 重音 When you learn a new word or expression learn it with its stress Notice how a native speaker says it or look it up in a dictionary Another good thing that speakers of English do is to have a few tricks up their sleeves 袖子 for when they need to give themselves thinking time Sometimes they use filler sounds like er um and so on It is also useful to know how to bring other speakers into your conversation so that you keep them interested and this is often done by asking questions like What do you think How do you feel about this and so on So to become a fluent speaker you ll need to put into practice all these kinds of things And there s the key practisce

friendship of eight years is broken over something out of their control Does that mean it was never a true friendship to begin with My friend and I met in high school and have known each other for nearly eight years What happened recently broke our lifelong friendship This makes me think about friendship really means I always thought my friend and I could get through any argument fight or the sadness of life We promised each other we d always be friends through thick and thin We even joked about how we would sit in a circle and laugh at some jokes when we had grandchilren We always laughed at every little thing But then her grandfather passed away 去世 and suddenly our friendship was nothing It happened so suddenly that I never found out about it until I discovered a note she had written on the Internet I was sad and hurt that she would post 发帖子 what I told her for other people to see I understand that she was sad and wanted to vent 发泄 her sadness but I wish she d kept everything between us I don t understand why she broke our friendship and I don t think I ever will I think friendship means we ll always forgive each other for our mistakes I hope that finally I ll find that true friend who will always be there for me and I there for her 9 In Paragragh 1
