Those above elements above may be decided by many factors such as vocabulary and Chinese thinking ways which are considered by people as basic difficulties of speaking for language can not be organized without them. Actually now the difficulties Chinese learner are meeting with is not it that they don¡¯t know lots of words or grammars. It is poor listening which can cause the misunderstanding in communication and poor pronunciation which can reduce learners¡¯ confidence to speak.

 Listening and speaking are not only two individuals that are interdependent, but a unity inseparably connected. Listening is the precondition. Only after hearing and understanding, speaking ability will be acquired to express the opinion. A poor listening is the first difficulty learners should deal with.

However, the reasons why such a difficulty arises can be quite complicated. ¡°One major reason for a poor listening skill is that listening is often neglected in language learning due to lack of materials, both with print materials and audio or video tapes, lace of equipment (tape players, VCRs, VCDs, DVDs, computers) and lack of real-life situations where language learners need to understand spoken Chinese¡± . Since learners are learning Chinese not only to pass exams, but to use Chinese in real life, it is important to think about the situations they will listen to Chinese in real life and then to think about an effective listening exercises. Movies help learners prepare for real life. They are not to artificial or too far removed from real life to be of some use. Movies are listening materials with background noise which bring the learners a realistic feeling to get in touch with the life of natural spoken Chinese and enhanced their adaptability of different accent and language style.
