Chinese, nor did he teach him grammar like most Chinese teachers do.

An 8-year-old boy named Miao Yizhi from Whenzhou city of east China’s Zhe Jiang Province Nike Air Presto Red Burgundy UK , passed Level 3 of the Public English Test System (PETS 3) in March this year, becoming the youngest examinee who passes this test, reported local newspaper Xian Dai Jin Bao.

At the age of six, Miao was accompanied by his parents to take PETS1 exam, when the little boy could hardly reach the desk. But Miao easily finished the exam in less than an hour Mens Nike Air Presto QS Grey Black UK , and passed the exam with high marks in written test and full marks in oral test.


In April this year, Miao again staked through PETS 3 test (the level approximates CET4 test) and got the certificate, setting a new record of the youngest participant winning the highest level. According to his father, Miao is even capable to pass the CET6 exam (college students in China may choose to take).

The father didn’t teach Miao how to pronounce a word or how to explain a word in Chinese, nor did he teach him grammar like most Chinese teachers do. Instead, he gathered classic English audios and videos for the kid, making him to imitate all by himself.


The father revealed the boy’s learning method: lying on the sofa with eyes closed, learning English by listening and following the sentences played by the language repeater. As he focuses himself on listening with eyes closed Mens Nike Air Presto QS Black UK , he has developed his own way of learning ”naked listening”-listening without referring to books. Now he can even understand English novels only by listening.


Besides English, the boy is also doing well in Chinese, mathematics as well as football and table tennis.
