(1) As China becomes a member of the WTO and hosts the 2008 Olympics, English has become an indispensable communication tool for the entire population. Particularly in the 21st century, with the advancement of science and frequent international exchanges, English has become a global language, and people are all striving to master basic English skills.
(2) Developing English listening and speaking skills in the classroom often requires a significant amount of time and money, but the results are limited. The best approach is to first acquire basic English knowledge in middle and high school, frequently listen to English recordings, and express yourself confidently when encountering foreigners based on your knowledge and abilities. The second best way is to have an environment where you can speak English, such as living in the United States or the United Kingdom, where habits can be formed to develop listening and speaking skills, which is the most effective method.
(3) Since we lack a living environment where English is spoken in China, we have specially compiled the "Today's English" with accompanying audio tapes for everyone to use. If you study diligently and listen frequently, you will achieve unexpected results.
(4) The content of this book is divided into four units: short sentences, questions, answers, and sentence patterns. It is concise and practical. Everyone should have a copy, which is sufficient for use. When encountering foreign guests or traveling abroad, you can make the most of it, and listening, speaking, and responding will be without problem.
