Singing songs is fun, but is it also
useful? For learning English pronunciation(发音), Mr Joe thinks songs
are the most useful way to learn. At the same time, you can learn some new
words and phrases while singing songs. Mr Joe has used songs to help himself
learn French, Spanish, Japanese and Chinese. You should do the same.
Some words used in songs are not everyday
English, so you have to be careful how you use song lyrics (歌词) when you speak. Most words and sentences are very useful. You don't
have to sing songs aloud if you are shy, but after learning a song, you should
be able to follow the words without looking at the lyrics. When you can do
that, you have learned something that you will never forget!
Some good songs to listen to are from the
Beatles, John Denver and the Carpenters. Their songs are not too fast and the
lyrics are close to normal spoken English. Just for fun, you can try Mr Joe's
favorite singer, B. B. King. His songs are not easy at all! If you can
understand even 80% of "Why I Sing the Blues", you are a very
excellent student.
If you become good at singing English
songs, you can try to go to karaoke and sing with your friends. When you are
able to sing a song in another language, even if you don't sing so beautifully,
you will really impress(给......深刻印象) other people!
