《口语教程1(修订版)》第一册的教学内容如英语书名所说，是“Learn to Talk”。如何学习英语口语？首先要克服心理障碍，大胆开口讲英语。《口语教程1(修订版)》围绕询问、请求、建议、抱怨、劝告、道歉、描述等交际功能编排练习，并设置各种情景，贴近学生生活，使他们学了就能用、能有话讲。其次，低年级阶段训练以形式/结构为重点，固化操练有其内在合理性，特别是要重视预构成语块的学习。给出常用表达方式及对话范文，要求学生进行仿说。掌握这些规范得体、惯常使用的语言形式，日积月累，反复操练，做到脱口而出，久而久之，讲英语就会自然、地道。再次，在语言学习过程中，背诵被证明是有效的方法。古人云：熟读唐诗三百首，不会做诗也会吟。“熟读”包括反复地大声朗读和背诵仿说。《口语教程1(修订版)》每个单元都精选若干蕴义深邃的语篇和短诗，要求学生朗读背诵，做到烂熟于心，这将奠定其英语口语表达能力的基础。总之，《口语教程1(修订版)》第一册针对一年级学生学习英语口语的特点，努力帮助他们在起始阶段就有一个好的开头，而好的开头是成功的一半。
