　　The problems which face the learners of English can

　　be divided into three categories: psychological, culture, 62_________

　　and linguistic. The largest category seems to be linguistic.

　　When foreign learners first have the opportunity to speaking 63_________

　　to a native speaker of English, they may have a shock: they

　　often have little difficulty in understanding spoken English 64_________

　　of native speakers. There are a number of reasons to this. 65_________

　　First, it seems to students that English people speak very

　　quickly. Secondly,they say with a variety of accents. 66_________

　　Thirdly, different styles of speech are used in different

　　situations, for example, everyday spoken English, which is

　　colloquial and idiomatic, are different from the English 67_________

　　used for academic purposes. For all of these reasons

　　students will have difficulty, mainly because we lack 68_________

　　practice in listening to English people speaking English.

　　What can a student do then to overcome these

　　difficulties? Well, obviously, he can benefit in attending 69_________

　　English classes and he should take every opportunity

　　available to speak with native speakers of English. He

　　should be aware, consequently, that English people are, by 70_________

　　temperament, often reserved and may be willing to start a 71_________

　　conversation. So he should have the courage to take the initiative.0
