很多人在练习口语的过程中，头脑中出现的是一个个单词，不能连成句子，于是出现舌头打结，头脑馄饨的状态。大部分以为是自己单词量不够，于是开始狂背单词，后来发现还是不见好转，然后开始责怪自己英文没有天赋，然后懈怠放弃。其实不然。

问题的关键在于连词成句，也就是以前所说过的珍珠和项链的关系，词汇学习是必须的，但是我们的目的还是用英文表露自己的思想，所以句子这一关非过不可。出去原来所教过的修改名人佳句，今天分享的习惯说穿了就是自己造句。

单个词造句

传统的造句很简单，给一个词汇，然后造出一个句子，比如apple，然后造出this is an apple。然后等和别人问what is this? 然后自豪的回答this is an apple，虚荣心得到极大的满足。或者查字典，然后学到一些新鲜用法背下来: she is the apple of her father’s eyes（牛津字典）, 然后在提升到更高的层面，用google查出quotes，初级一点的句子比如 an apple a day keeps a doctor away. 稍微有技术含量的句子比如：Anyone can count the seeds in an apple, but only God can count the number of apples in a seed.

多个词造句

多个词造句的方法就是给出一系列词语，然后用自己的逻辑结构来造句，如同yellow, ball, cat, box，你可以很容易造出这样的句子—a yellow cat kicks the ball in the box。当然也有很多人会把yellow换到不同的词前面修饰，但是却很少有人会造出a yellow ball kicks a cat in the box的。足以证明，当我们在构建句子的时候，关键的还是逻辑思维。高级一点的例子如typical, flatter, extraordinary. 只要把造句当成一个任务来完成，大家很容易想到了从词性下手，如果句子有主谓宾，那么谓语flatter已经出现了，对于动词只需要考虑主动还是被动就可以了，如同I flatter you或者you are flattered by me.　而一般you和I不容易在前面加上形容词，所以通常不用代词。而typical可以变成副词修饰谓语动词，extraordinary修饰名词，比如 an extraordinary writer，然后可以作主语或者宾语，作主语的情况可以是 an extraordinary writer is typically flattered by his readers. 如果extraordinary不修饰人，稍微变通一下可以说a writer is typically flattered by his readers for his extraordinary works. 如果句子不只主谓宾，那么自然可以做成 writers, with extraordinary capabilities, are typically flattered by their readers. 当然，也可以抽象出people, with extraordinary qualities, are typically flattered by their followers. 更可以戏谑的说 only those without extraordinary qualities are typically flattered by their followers. 也可以跳出来，写成one is typically flattered due to something that makes him extraordinary，

但是有没有觉得这样很慢？版本很多虽然是好事，但是良莠不齐，我们也很难判断自己造的句子是不是对的或者标准的，只有一个一个去尝试了，收效比较慢。学英语最好的老师，肯定是那些英语好的老外，所以，终日而思，不如须臾之所学，最快捷的方法只要三步就可以了—找句子，选关键词，还原句子。

比如：The American economic system is market-oriented economy, in which consumers largely determine what shall be produced by spending their money in the marketplace.

首先在找好这个句子后，读懂分析出句子成分，然后开始寻找关键词，比如American economic system, market-oriented, consumers, produce, money，然后看着这些词，而不要看句子，用刚才对句子的理解，构建出属于你的句子，然后和原句对比。每天练习三句，一个月后就会有明显的效果的。
