每一个来到加拿大的移民,都希望自己可以尽快地融入到本地主流生活中去,要想达到这点,其实不是太难,但是首先一定要可以使用英文来进行沟通。

8 ?& W( D6 Y8 F* L, i' r2 b对于英语的修炼,有两层境界:
/ b. f* ? b* \4 A8 V7 o6 u7 m9 E# L8 v+ N9 R
第一层境界就是Understandable English,就是说你的英文大家可以听懂,说的稍微有点口音或者说的英语很书面化都没关系,达到这一层,你日常生活工作和学习基本上不会有太大的障碍。# R( G" \ R7 s" _
8 s+ U" K3 f) @4 o但是很多人到了这个境界就满足了,不再继续强化英文训练,这就不对了。我们不能固步自封,还要向下一层境界前进,那就是Native English,达到这个境界的英语使用者,可以基本使用纯正的原汁原味的英语和本地人无障碍交流,可以想象,到了这个境界的人在工作和生活中都会体验到一种无拘无束的快乐,在职场和事业上的发展都会取得比较大的成就。2 J3 n: b! `' m: W' {( P9 F
