- Chosen by Voters I did a few corrections. Hope this helps! ^_^Nowadays, many students can speak English fluently after four years of studying the language. Not being able to speak the language is clearly a hindrance for them to communicate with the world. There are so many causes for this problem such as ineffective study methods, lacking awareness of the importance of English, and many unavoidable effects, like not being able to keep pace with the world, living in a slow developing country, etc. It’s not only a personal problem, but also a society’s.Firstly, one of the most important causes is wrong studying methods, many students still keep studying in outdated methods. They focus on grammar instead of listening, pronunciation and speaking. I am a learner of English and I feel that nowadays, pronunciation and listening skills are the most important because they go together and helps me convey my thoughts despite some grammatical errors.Secondly, there are still many people who are not aware of the importance of English. A survey taken by a union of universities shows that students of technology, medicine, science department pay less attention to learning English than students of other fields. Students of a technology department think that English is not necessary for their future jobs, so they neglect their study of English. They also think that foreign language is not as important as their academic subjects.However, cause always goes with effect, and neglecting study of English results in some unavoidable effects. One of them is not being able to catch up with the rest of the world. The world nowadays is highly-developed in many fields. There is a lot to learn from English-speaking countries such as England, Australia, and America. If we can not speak English, we are surely missing a lot out there. 3 years ago 100% 1 Vote
