Imitation is the very good way to improve your spoken English. Since we don’t have many chances to practice our English with native speakers, imitation is a very good replacement to help us have a British or American accent. While we copy their sentences, pronunciation and intonation, we will definitely speak fluent and beautiful English.

Homework: 1.Please imitate the receptionist’s sentences in Phone 1 P 11 :two ruses: 2. Please imitate the other two telephone calls in Topic Two ruses
