In English learning, many people often face the problem of "understanding but not understanding". To improve your listening skills, you first need to understand what the problem is** and how to practice effectively. Here are four common hearing myths, as well as a comprehensive set of listening exercises.
Four Hearing Myths:
Blind pursuit of difficulty: Avoid early exposure to difficult listening materials, especially if you have a weak foundation. Listening to VOA and BBC news mechanically may be half the effort.
Blindly chasing dramas: Not only do you have to watch American dramas, but you also have to deliberately accumulate vocabulary and imitate pronunciation. Mere viewing does not improve hearing.
Compulsive learning: Compulsive learning can lead to an aversion to learning English and listening. Learning should be a positive and enjoyable process.
Lost Extensive Listening and Intensive Listening Thinking: Extensive listening is the overall perception, while intensive listening is deep understanding. One is indispensable, and ignoring one can affect the learning effect.

Listening-Oral-Dictation Training:
Listen as a whole: Listen 1-2 times to get a general idea. Listen sentence by sentence: Speak and write sentence by sentence until you understand it. Modify against the text to ensure accuracy. Listen as a whole: After listening sentence by sentence, listen to the whole 1-2 times again to check whether you understand it completely. Check the text to fill in the gaps. Organize new words: Concentrate on memorizing new words, excellent expressions, and deepen your impression.
The secret to improving listening = Listen + imitate + persist:
Listening tips: Choose what you like and what suits your level for listening exercises. Read aloud to improve your ability to imitate speech. Key points of imitation: imitation of phonetics, stress, conjunction, stress, weak reading, assimilation, turbidity, plosive, and ascending tone. Choose American or British pronunciation, and it's best not to mix them at first.
Concentrate on imitating a sentence and avoid being greedy. Persistence: Regardless of the method, persistence is the key to improving your English listening.
