Some students, who attach no importance to reading aloud, believe that the reading and writing should follow the listening and speaking. However, “reading aloud” plays an important role in the English learning process. Why must we read aloud? First of all, English is a kind of phonic language, which uses the alphabetic writing. Moreover, English is a subject with practice. At the same time, “reading aloud” also is an important part in education for all- around development, which has several functions in English teaching.
