这些怎么是在谈论天气？

1. I'll go bowling with you.
2. We're planning to go shopping this
afternoon.
3. Would you like to go swimming in such
a sunny day?
4. I'd love to go dancing with friends.

这篇心得中有不少误解，或者说解释得不全面。如 I've got to run，意思是“我得快点走了”，这个句式用的是“have to”。按照文中的说明，这是在用 got 表示要做什么活动，不知道的人以为是说 “我要去跑步”呢。

其实这是地道的美国口语。。。。。。

其实这是地道的美国口语，本人以为<<走遍美国>>是比较不错的英语教材，所有的解释并非本人所为，只是将它们总和在一起便于大家和我一块共同学习，其实相信许多人有共同感觉就是：想表达自己的意思，不知该如何表达，尤其用地道的口语。这就是一个比较好的总结教材，当然很多解释是针对特定的语言环境和特定的情形，这需要大家自己把握。

楼主为苦于寻找口语学习材料的人们做了一件好事。

《走边美国》应用的是一种叫做“功能”的教学方法，就是说，将常用口语按照其在交际环境中所起的作用进行分类，比如将用来打招呼、道歉、提出疑问等等用处的句子，按类别放在一起，便于学生按交际需要来学习掌握。

这是英语交际教学法在实际教学中的一种应用。其好处之一是，学生可以象使用词典或其他分类工具书一样，在需要时，按类别寻找应该使用的句子来学。减少一些学习的随意性及无目的性。

任何一种口语教材都可以学口语，但是，没有哪一种教材可以教会你口语。

既然叫“口语”， 就意味着要动口。这个动口不是谈论什么教材好，什么句子漂亮，什么用语地道，而是-------说那些句子，用那些语词。

少评价，多练习。练多了，练会了，你自己就知道什么叫“两岸猿声啼不住”了。

努力。
