3 ]: ] p2 K2 D2 g2 J5 N9 C' n对于英语的修炼,有两层境界:$ w0 r7 ]( _0 R: i- P+ R. p
5 {( S, @9 o* W2 q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。

1 o9 i& E$ F+ Y; g5 I: u- Q; j8 W: m2 F C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。
