Features: It seems that improving English listening and speaking skills has become an insurmountable "hurdle" for Chinese learners of English, one of the main reasons why college English teaching is often criticized, and a source of anxiety for countless students. When it comes to the reasons, we believe it is closely related to the lack of practice in an English environment and the absence of a sense of language. As teachers who have been engaged in the frontline of English teaching for many years, we believe that students should be taught "living" language, allowing them to enhance their sense of language and become familiar with expressions in a vivid linguistic context to achieve the goal of improving listening skills. Numerous classic foreign films not only train students' expressive abilities but also broaden their knowledge and improve their cultural awareness. This book includes recordings from Roman Holiday, supplemented by introductions to cultural background knowledge such as actors and locations, along with diverse and highly practical exercises, making it very useful. Through the simulated English environment of classic films, you can not only appreciate the colorful foreign cultures and traditions, expand your knowledge, but more importantly, you can learn authentic and lively language.
