22．Henry Loomis served as director of the Voice of America for seven years starting in 1958．Mr．Loomis played an important role in creating the Special English service．
Henry Loomis was born in 1919 in Tuxedo Park，New York．His father was Alfred Lee Loomis，a well-off New York City businessman．In 1940，Henry Loomis dropped out of Harvard University to join the United States Navy．He was able to put to good use his knowledge of radar technology that he had learned about because of his father's work．After graduating at the top in his naval（海軍的）training class，Henry Loomis became a teacher at the Navy's radar training school in Hawaii．He left the Navy in 1946 and later finished his graduate studies．
Henry Loomis later moved to Washington，D．C．to begin another stage of his career in public service．He held positions in the Department of Defense and other agencies．In 1958，he became director of the Voice of America．
During his travels around the world，Mr．Loomis saw that English was becoming an important international language．He believed that it was important to make English easier to understand by listeners of VOA broadcasts whose native language was not English．So Mr．Loomis asked VOA program manager Barry Zorthian to develop a way to broadcast to listeners with a limited knowledge of English．
The first Voice of America broadcast in Special English took place on October 19th，1959．Critics at the time said the fund（資金）was limited，while the important matter was that Special English method of broadcasting at a slower speed with a limited vocabulary would never work．However，VOA began soon to receive hundreds of letters from listeners praising the program．Special English programs became some of the most popular on VOA．

23．Speaking is not equal to learning1．You don't need to study grammar too much．
The first suggestion may sound strange to many students who begin to learn English，but it is exactly important． （1）However，if you want to speak fluently，you should try to speak English without thinking too much of grammar．Studying grammar will only slow you down and make you hesitate．You will think about the grammar rules instead of naturally saying a sentence like a native．
2．You can't translate every word．
When you try to speak English，you do not need to translate every word from your mother tongue．（2）Another problem you may meet is that you will misuse grammar rules that you have learned in your mother language．
3．（3）
The reason why many people can learn well is that they often practise．But in order to speak English fluently，you need to practise speaking．When you study，don't just listen．Speak out loud the material you are listening to and practise what you hear．Practise speaking out loud until your mouth and brain can do it without any effort．（4）
4．You should study correct material．
A phrase you often hear is， "Practice makes perfect．" This is not completely true．Practice only makes what you are practising permanent．If you practise the incorrect sentence，you will have perfected saying the sentence incorrectly．（5）
A．You should try to speak fluently．
B．You need to practise speaking what you hear．
C．By doing so，you will be able to speak English fluently．
D．If you want to pass examinations，you should study grammar well．
E．If you listen more，you can speak correctly and fluently sooner or later．
F．Therefore，it is important that you study material that is commonly used by most people．
G．The order of words is probably completely different and you may be both slow and incorrect by doing this．組卷：2引用：2難度：0.5
