描述
本书从指导思想的酝酿，资料的收集到练习的编写长达六年之久。 中国学生常常感到掌握英语口语困难。数量有限的口语问答以及对短文、对话的记忆背诵难以提高学生在日常生活中用英语进行口头交际的能力。学生对口语有惧怕感，突破不了口语关。为了寻找一种学生乐于用英语口头交际的办法，我们进行了试验与探索，研究了国内外的口语教材以及中国学生学习英语口语的特定环境。我们从中外六十多种书刊中选取素材，完成了这套《英语口语教程》。它具有以下特点： 1)课文主题与年轻人生活、思想紧密相关，题材广泛，多是年轻人感兴趣且乐于交谈的题目。学习此书有助于年轻人产生用英语进行口头交际的强烈欲望。 2)训练由易到难，循序渐进；练习精心设计，形式生动活泼。《英语初级口语》和《英语中级口语》每课都配有图画及练习，很多练习方法已在我们教学中反复使用，且卓有成效。 3)培养学生全面的口语能力，包括叙述、对话、交谈、讨论、辩论等多种能力。 4）教材适用性强，既适合在校的不同年级的学生，也适用于水平不一的英语自学者。 5)每套教材都配有英语录音，录音者皆是英语国家的学者和专家，配音清晰、流畅、优美，语音、语调标准纯正。 《英语口语教程》分初级、中级、高级三册。训练重点不同，内容各异。《英语初级口语》共有40课。内容包括饮食起居、节假日、晚会、舞会、做客、通信、电视、电影、购物、求医、求学、旅游等。课文多是与日常生活相关的小故事与对话。《英语中级口语》共有35课，内容包括爱情友谊、生儿育女、公共道德、人际关系、个性特点、生活习惯、趣味爱好、生活经历、体育运动、勤工俭学、学习方法、健康减肥、犯罪案例等。《英语高级口语》．共有28课，内容包括对各种问题的辩论，诸如青年人的思想情绪、广告的优劣、寻找对象的方式、妇女的地位、住房改造、对“大锅饭”的态度、对老板的态度、工作的意义、独生子女的教育、城乡差别、教育改革、时装美容、对钱的态度、批评与表扬、两代人的差别、对时间的看法等等。 在编写这套口语教程的过程中，我们得到国内外同行的启示，也从学生学习的过程中获得丰富的反馈。熊德软教授对部分文字作了润色，王念华帮助复印了部分资料。在此我们一并表示诚挚的谢意。
