4．Don’t Worry about Making Mistakes
不要擔心犯錯誤
　
A: I’ve always wondered, what’s the difference between English for Chinese students and English for native students?
我一直弄不明白，中國學生學英語和美國學生學英語有什么不同?

B: I don’t know. What do you think?
不知道，你覺得呢?

A: I think a Chinese student concentrates on written English, and uses it as a basis for communicating. From start to finish he’s learning vocabulary and fundamentals of grammar. This is a very difficult way to learn.
我認為中國學生注重書面語言，而且以此來交流。他們從始至終都在背單詞和學語法基礎。這是一種很困難的學習方法。

B: What do natives get?
那美國人呢?

A: They get higher level English, which is more formal than everyday spoken English. They also deal with matters of style and creativity.
他們注重比口語更為正規(guī)和高級的成文英語。他們也學習文體和創(chuàng)作。

B: Do you mean that a native doesn’t make any mistakes in grammar?
你說美國本土人都不會犯語法錯誤嗎?

A: Absolutely not! Native speakers make a lot of grammar mistakes, especially if they come from a home where nonstandard English is spoken.
當然不是！他們同樣犯很多錯誤，尤其是來自一個說不標準英語的家庭的人。

B: I suppose that only a small percentage of college students don’t know standard English in American universities.
我想在美國大學里只有極少數(shù)的大專學生不懂得標準英語。

A: Actually there are more non-native speakers than you think. That’s why it’s so important to quit worrying about making mistakes. Just talk to everyone every chance you get.
實際上在美國的非英語母語者要比你想象的多。這就是為什么你不必擔心犯錯誤。見到人就說，不放過每一個練英語的機會。
