They say that while listening, they seem to understandeverything that they hear, but as soon as the voice stops, all is gone! They say that they just can39。 t remember what they heard, not to mention writing down or speaking out. What causes this problem? Is it also your plaint? Let us try to discuss the matter from two perspectives. First, knowing some difference between prehend sion and production is important. When we learn a new lan guage, we usually pass through at least three munication stages, namely, the oneway stage, the partial twoway stage and the full twoway stage. Obviously, there39。 s the gap in between. Just as Brown and Terrell point out in their books on language learning and language teaching, The inability to produce an item should not be taken to mean that the learner cannot prehend it. Therefore, if we can prehend what is being said to us, we have achieved the first goal. That39。 s quite encouraging! Secondly, of course, we39。 ll have to move on. And we must be aware of some possible traps on our way to effective listening. When we listen, are we paying equal attention to every element in each utterance? Are we attempting to memorize and repeat and write down all the details in a passage? If so, we need to think for a while. Human memory can retain only a limited amount of information at a time. Therefore, only by learning to select and simplify can we possibly absorb what is really important and then rememberwhat is the most essential. In fact, when we listen, we use ally listen with a purpose. Although it is sometimes necessary to get detailed and specific information on the subject, it is, more often than not, quite enough for us to grasp the key words and the main points. Furthermore, in the course of listening, if we are capable of automatically turning the plicated sentences structures into simple ones, interrogative into affirmative, or passive into active, our brain will certainly do a much smarter job in helping our memory.41 No one sets out in life to fail. The reality is that many do. Why do some prosper while others struggle just to exist? There is no simple answer to that question but here are a few thoughts that might shed some light onto this very plex issue.1. The future is in your imaginationHumans are blessed with the ability to think into the future. We can use our imagination to see possibilities. Use this unique gift in a positive way. Build a vision of what you want to be, have or do. It is the starting point of all successful activities.2. To win, you must expect to winOnce we imagine our future, we must wrap that vision with a belief system that encourages us to fulfill the vision.3. We are surrounded by opportunityAs we move through time, opportunities are abound. All we have to do is recognize them and reach out to grab them. Cap Turing opportunity demands risk. Are you a risk taker?4. Like what you do or do something elseLow achievers usually don39。 t like to work or don39。 t like the work they are doing. Those who don39。 t want to work will never prosper. For those who work, it is critically important that their work be a joyful experience. Match your skills to your job requirements. The closer the match, the more enjoyable the
