Features: Due to the influence of native language and other factors, many English learners often find it difficult in both pronunciation and expression. Therefore, we have strived to include the pronunciation aspects that Chinese learners often find challenging in the English learning process in the writing of this book. At the same time, we have tried to capture the latest and most typical content of life abroad, providing learners with various expressions and as many typical sentence patterns as possible. The book starts with the basics of phonetics, explaining the fundamental pronunciation and techniques of phonetics in ten lessons. The second part is the conversation section, consisting of thirty lessons, with each lesson offering situational dialogues, grammar, and common sentence patterns. Additionally, to provide learners with a relaxed learning atmosphere, we have included "Relaxed Moments" to help enhance their interest in learning. This book can serve as a speaking textbook for beginners and intermediate-level learners, as well as for self-learners. The editors have also provided an introduction to major English-speaking countries, their key cities, and universities at the back of the book, which will be very helpful for those planning to work or study abroad.
