Four Free Mobile Apps to Help You Learn English Faster
Have you realized that you can put your smartphone to really good use for learning English? Here are 4 free mobile apps that will help you do just that.
Hello English
It covers all the things of language leaning, including vocabulary, translation, grammar, spellings, spoken and reading skills. It uses interactive (互动的) games to teach different English lessons and offers new audiobooks, latest news, and books. However, you should already understand basic English structures and words, for the app can’t help you learn English from the very beginning.
Duolingo
If you want to start learning English, then this is the app you are looking for. Duolingo uses interactive games to help you learn English. For beginners, the app focuses on helping you learn verbs, phrases and sentences.
Lingbe
If you are ready to practice your spoken skills in the real world, you’ll need Lingbe. It’s a community-based app where people help each other and share their native languages. It connects you with real people on call who are native English speakers.
HelloTalk
HelloTalk is similar to Lingbe as it connects you with native speakers to help improve your language skills. However, it adds a few extra functions that might interest you. You can view the information about users to find a match that interests you. Additionally, you can also send text and audio messages, and even do video calls with other people.

Leaving everything behind to go after true happiness takes courage, and Sophie Matterson has enough to go around. The 3l-year-old enjoyed a good life in Brisbane, Australia, with a job in the TV and film industry, but it didn’t make her heart sing. That’s why she decided to try a different path. Now she’s trekking (跋涉) across the continent with five camels (骆驼) — and is the happiest she’s ever been!
In 2016, Sophie changed jobs and ended up somewhere she never expected: milking camels on a farm in Queensland.
“What I wasn’t anticipating was how much I would end up falling in love with these animals,” she wrote. “What was only going to be a six-month break from my ‘real job’ turned into five years of running after camels around Australia and other parts of the world.”
After taking tourists on camel treks for a while, Sophie decided to have an adventure of her own. She planned out a 5,000-kilometer trip from Shark Bay to Byron Bay before catching and training five wild camels in January 2019. Then she was finally ready to explore her country with Mac, Delilah, Clayton, Jude, and Charlie!
As one might imagine, the trip can be lonely at times, but Sophie’s camels make surprisingly good companions.
“It’s quite lovely and relaxing camping with camels,” she said. Best of all, she can see great views!
Sophie hopes to arrive in Byron Bay in the next nine months. In the meantime, she’ll be enjoying every second with her camel friends.

A Japanese company has created a "smart“ mask (口 罩)that aims to improve communication for people wearing face coverings to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
The use of face masks has become the new common practice in parts of the world still struggling to reduce the spread of the coronavirus. However, masks and other kinds of coverings can affect the quality of communication between wearers. The wearable electronic device (设备) called the "c — mask“ is meant to fit over other kinds of face masks commonly worn by the public. It's designed to better the exchange of conversation in such conditions.
The c — mask with a built-in microphone has holes in the front to let air in. When turned on, the mask uses Bluetooth technology to connect to a mobile device. An app then helps users do several actions, including turning speech into text, completing telephone calls and making the user's voice louder. The device can also translate a person's voice from Japanese into eight other languages.
Taisuke Ono, head of Donut Robotics, said the company was able to collect money to develop the smart mask through an activity on the Japanese crowdfunding (众筹)service Fundinno. He noted that the effort got $265,000 in just the first 37 minutes. It would usually take three or four months to collect that kind of money.
The company produced a working model of the mask within a month. Ono said the company plans to ship its first 5,000 c — masks to buyers in Japan. He is also looking to sell the devices in China, the United States and Europe and says he has received strong interest in the product.
8. Why does the Japanese company develop the c — mask?A.To increase their sales at home and abroad. |
B.To help mask wearers communicate better. |
C.To prevent the wide spread of the coronavirus. |
D.To raise more money for the mask production. |
A.It can deal with all the languages in the world. |
B.It should be worn inside the common face mask. |
C.It is connected to a mobile device through an app. |
D.It has got great public support through Fundinno. |
A.Positive. | B.Doubtful. |
C.Uninterested. | D.Worried. |
A.A diary. | B.A brochure. |
C.A magazine. | D.A novel. |
Speaking a foreign language is a high demand skill nowadays. Foreign language skills can help you get jobs. It even matters if you’re a social worker—the ability to communicate with customers in their own language is a huge advantage.
Learning a foreign language takes years of hard work. Luckily, two famous Japanese inventors took language translation to the next level and created an instant translator called MUAMA Enence. It can easily translate real-time speech into over 40 languages using only a few finger-taps. Thus, you don’t need to learn another language to be able to communicate in it. Difficulties caused by language barriers will soon be a thing of the past!
MUAMA Enence can transform you into an able-communication instantly. With its lightweight design and small size, MUAMA Enence is easy to carry in any pocket and is right there when needed. MUAMA Enence is inexpensive. An experienced professional translator or interpreter can be costly, and you need to pay more than once. MUAMA Enence requires just a one-off payment for a huge selection of languages. Its built-in advanced technology can support a 2-way language translation. Moreover, a text translation is also available.
Though MUAMA Enence was created mainly for travelers, it started gaining massive popularity among people of different occupations. All of a sudden, it became a must-have device! What surprised us is that more and more social workers and volunteers are choosing MUAMA Enence to make their work easier. We asked people who have used MUAMA Enence to explain how it works for them. The results showed that people have increased their job quality after using the Translator.
Language barriers should no longer be your concern anymore, and the answer is definitely YES! Now it’s the best time to do it, because MUAMA Enence may run out of stock soon due to its high popularity worldwide.

How to Keep Calm Under Pressure
Exam pressure, job interviews and public speeches can all make you feel rather nervous—your heart’s racing, your voice sounds strange and your mind goes empty.
First, slow you breathing way down. Take a deep breath through your nose for five seconds, hold it for a second, then push all the air out through your nose, slowly, counting to five.
The final tip is to focus. When you are busy, you wish to do several things at the same time, but if you want to stay calm and actually get things done, don’t.
A.Second, try humming (哼曲子). |
B.Why are you so nervous? |
C.What can you do to help? |
D.It will make things worse. |
E.Repeat a few times and you’ll feel calmer. |
F.This method is used by sports coaches to help athletes focus. |
G.Studies show that your brain can only do one thing at a time. |
