How can I learn English well?

Memorizing words is a difficult problem, yes. However, there are methods.

I have seen many ways to recite words.

1. Copying method Many students spread out their books, then read the words and began to remember them. The pens in their hands have been copying the word repeatedly on the draft paper. Until the secret, this method may be ok, probably because my primary school also uses this method to recite words. = =; In fact, this method has a very serious drawback: it is not environmentally friendly! Waste ink and paper. And the effect is not good.

Many students also use this method, that is, read the words out to see the sky, and keep mumbling or reading them in their heads.

3. shout loudly. I should have only seen this method in the dormitory. Someone took an English book, showed his strength, shouted something like revenge on his father, and then shouted the letters one by one.

I haven't used the above methods for a long time or never used them, and the estimated effect is not ideal. The method of memorizing words by myself should actually be quite common, which was taught to me by my first-grade math teacher. (Yes, math) How?

First of all, the left column of our alphabet is full of words, and the right column is full of Chinese meanings. I blocked the letter column with my left hand to see its Chinese meaning. Maybe I can try to spell it (by memorizing it in my head) with phonetic symbols. If I succeed, I will pass the next word. If not, I'll just take a look, make a mark and pass on the next word. Wait until all the words in the last unit are finished. Come back.

The same is true for memorizing Chinese meanings. Block the Chinese meaning with your right hand and try to recite the meaning by reading the words. There are some words you can't remember after reading them twice, but there are few. You can choose to recite it every once in a while. Repetitive memory is very important. The exam outline I got for the first time made me collapse. I didn't know more than I knew. Then, after a week or two of repeated short-term memory after self-study in the evening, I can now remember the Chinese meaning of every word in the outline, and the spelling of common words is not a problem.

Secondly, we should understand that there are two kinds of words.

The first category, such as compromise, curriculum, students who haven't read the syllabus probably don't know what they mean. For such words, we should do this: look at their English spelling and immediately think of their Chinese meanings. Spelling is generally not required, because such words are not used in writing and grammar filling.

The second category, such as: dedication, contribution and other commonly used words, should not only remember their spelling, but also know the relevant collocations commonly used by children, such as: devoting to doing, contributing to yourself and so on. The method of memorizing words mentioned above is also mainly used in this kind.

Second, practice

In order to practice, because the experimental class has to order two English newspapers, the weekly newspaper of senior three can't be finished. For students who subscribe to newspapers, it is recommended to give priority to English weekly newspapers. As for the need to buy extra, I don't think it is generally necessary. Because you don't usually do it if you buy it.

Some students may think that English practice is ineffective, which is wrong or wrong. This view is wrong. Quantitative change will lead to qualitative change. If you do more, you will feel that the correct rate will naturally go up. More importantly, speed. One of the main purposes of doing exercises is to practice speed. During the third year of high school, I brought some steamed buns to the classroom at about 6: 40 every morning, and then I started reading at 7: 20. Generally, I will make a test paper (except composition), which is the effect of practice.

Third, the exam.

This is a big problem. Everyone knows the form and content before the exam. There is nothing to talk about. If time is arranged, I will spend two hours on the exam. I will do the last topic for an hour and write the composition for an hour. Maybe you've heard of gestalt 25 minutes, grammar 10 minutes and reading 40 minutes ... I can tell you responsibly that it's better to believe this than to believe Brother Chun. Because the difficulty of the test questions is different, it will be finished in 5 minutes, and the difficulty will be slower. Personally, I still try to leave 1 hour for writing.

Let's talk about various issues in detail.

1. cloze

Gestalt, it should be said, is really difficult. It took me a long time to figure out how to deal with it.

First of all, come up with a perfect article, don't rush to do it. The first step is to grasp the main idea of the article, that is, what is being said. The correct way is: don't look at the options, don't care about the emptiness, read the whole article completely, and don't start without knowing what you are writing. Because of the typical cloze, the college entrance examination may be cloze, and the grasp of the whole article is the key. There are still a few questions about the gestalt that need to be explained:

(1) Gestalt does not examine grammar. Gestalt is a test of your ability to understand and relate to the context. In other words, these four options are grammatically correct when filling in the blanks. So you don't have to consider filling in this word, the grammar is not good, you can match it. As long as the meaning is right, it is king. All four options are correct, but the best one (note that it is best to understand the meaning of this word)

Soon they will see their dreams come true. If you analyze it grammatically, you will definitely not choose rocket, but his meaning is the best, so it is the correct answer.

Then, faced with many differences in his voyage, Mike tried his best to continue fighting. What do you think this is? This means that the king.

(2) Practice is very important for cloze. Gestalt should be the most needed practice. Do it, and if you do too much, you will succeed.

Fill in the blanks in grammar

First of all, like the gestalt, the first step is to understand its main content. Read the article completely first, ignoring the blanks. Read it once, and then start to fill it out again. Grammar is very painful when I first came into contact with it. I often make more than half mistakes, and then I gradually make fewer mistakes. Grammar also depends on accumulation and sense of language. You should know the minimum knowledge.

For example, you should know: fill in the blanks with proper word forms, intransitive verbs have no passive voice, transitive verbs must be followed by objects, and a transitive verb is given, while passive voice must have no object.

He looked at me with his eyes. How to fill it out? Raised? Raise? Put forward the correct answer. What makes you judge? Some teachers may explain that the bulge indicates the state, but in fact, this explanation is very empty and can also indicate the state when going on. The most direct and effective way to judge is that raise is a transitive verb. If he raises his eyes. , the object disappeared after ascension, which is of course impossible. If you fill in the bulge, it will be passive. That makes sense. Therefore, grammatical things are still relatively empty by feeling. Do more, ask more, accumulate more, and have real talent and practical learning is king.

Grammar fill in the blanks, except for the proper form of the words in brackets, only one word can be filled in other spaces, which is usually a function word. (That, and, because, with ...)

It is more important to read the sentence. Read the complete sentence before filling in. Don't fill it out at first glance. Usually after reading the complete sentence, you will find that the word you just started thinking about is often wrong, because you have to read the complete sentence to determine its meaning and composition in the sentence. Grammatical fill-in-the-blank is easier than cloze and reading. If you do too much, you can naturally find the rules.

3. Reading comprehension

There are still many skills in reading comprehension. Since Jessica introduced her method of doing problems in high school, I have always adopted her method: read the problems first, then read the articles. My approach is: first, mark the article in the paragraph. Then look directly at the topic. Read all the topics, including the options, and then go back to the article (students all say that they forget the topic after reading it and waste time reading it again). Actually, you have to look with your eyes. You must have a pen in your hand. When reading, underline and circle all the key words. Then you will be deeply moved. Back to the article. You won't be impressed. At this time, you should also extract the corresponding content from the article. Especially when dealing with topics such as "what can we learn from the article" or "which of the following is correct about the article", this method is the most useful. Because the information points are directly matched, you already know what to ask when you look at the question. When you read the article again, you won't miss it, and you don't need to look for it again. The whole test paper I made was crossed out at sixes and sevens. But this is what you should do.

There are several problems that have been entangled.

(1) Best Title. This kind of topic is sometimes difficult and sometimes easy. For news articles, we all know that the introduction of news is very important, which summarizes the main contents of news, and English news is no exception. In other words, the first sentence of the first paragraph is usually the best title, even if it is not the first sentence, it is in the first paragraph. Of the four options for the general best title, one must be exactly the same or similar to the beginning of the article, and it is right to choose it.

And some articles, the best title is really difficult to ponder, in fact, students do not have to worry too much, because the topic of the college entrance examination can stand scrutiny. If you usually find it difficult to understand some answers to the best title, then as Jessica said, then we will ignore this question. The same is true of other topics: some questions are due to the limited level of the questioner, and you feel that you can't agree with the answer, so forget it and don't get too entangled. Sometimes the best teacher can't convince you, which is normal, because the topic itself has problems.

(2) Reasoning and judging questions. "This article shows that …" and "From the passage, we can be there …" both ……”suggest and inside have the meaning of speculation, that is, what you choose must be inferred from the article, not from the original text. In other words, you can't choose exactly the same.

4. Information matching-information is to distribute topics. Look at the topic first, then at the options, and draw a line while watching. Unless it is extremely difficult, the time spent is negligible. Sometimes you need to pay attention to topics with pictures. Don't think that pictures are for you to see and play with. There are probably some words on it, which is very important information. Don't ignore the words in the picture when you do the problem.

Write a composition

As I said before, I spend an hour writing my composition. Of course, the more time I can write my composition, the better. The composition has two parts, a small composition and a big composition.

1. Small composition. Some students have the habit of making drafts, which is good. Drafts are very important, especially small compositions. I have never written a small composition without a draft. Small composition requires five sentences to express all the content, and to identify the information. The article pays great attention to transitional words: there, additional, while, more, last… and so on. These words are very important, and when used, the article appears coherent and organized.

My classmates asked me, "Do you write your composition by grammar or by sense of language?" At that time, I said, "Small composition depends on grammar, while big composition depends on language sense." That's true. Small composition is actually translation, the more gorgeous the better, the richer the sentence patterns the better. In the English corner, I heard an English teacher say that teachers like this kind of first, second and third best. Because it is a symbol of order, she even said that she could tolerate some grammatical or other mistakes it caused. I think if she is too deliberate, it may be difficult to connect the sentences together. If conditions permit, she can try.

2. Big composition-first, summary. You must draft this. 30 words, actually less than 45 words, summarize the content. It is generally recommended to use two sentences. Summary has different requirements for different articles. This classmate need not worry. Systematic training will be conducted in the future. If the information points are complete and there are no grammatical errors, the summary can generally get 4 points. And 5 points need to be added with gorgeous sentences.

Body part: read the test requirements clearly: is it divided into 2 points or 3 points? Generally, there are two paragraphs at 2 o'clock and three at 3 o'clock. The priority of paragraphs is special. Generally, the first point is to ask your opinion, and a simple description of 2 or 3 sentences is enough. And those who need examples are the focus of the description. Finally, summary sentences generally use the highest possible sentence patterns: stressed sentences, inverted sentences, and negative stressed sentences (well, this name was invented by me, and this sentence pattern is the highest in high school. The specific usage will be introduced in the common sentence patterns in high school issued by the teacher in the future. For example, a sentence has too many meanings that we can never imagine. ) and so on.

For composition, accumulation is really more important. Don't make grammatical mistakes. The deduction of grammar mistakes is far more serious than you think, because your impression will be greatly reduced in the eyes of teachers. In order to make fewer mistakes, some students try to use simple sentences steadily, which is not impossible, and then write a big composition with paragraphs 16, 25 points and 20 points, which is the limit of stability. To break through 20 points, you need gorgeous sentence patterns. The "tunnel" I mentioned earlier is a sharp weapon to get high marks in composition, and then it is hard to say how to define this "tunnel", which needs every student to think carefully.

Another important thing in composition is writing. Even more important than whether your writing is good or not. My classmates asked me: how to write a high score in a composition? I always say: beautifully written. It looks like a joke, but it's actually true. I asked the teacher what kind of composition can get high marks. She said that the paper must be good, and a good paper score will definitely go to a higher level. Therefore, don't scribble your composition. If the writing is beautiful and neat, the score will definitely not be low.

For neatness, I have a fatal wound, because my composition is written in Italian circles, with gorgeous fonts but poor neatness. Cleanliness is more important than weighing, so students should not try complicated fonts easily, which is likely to outweigh the benefits.

Fourth, spoken English.

Finally, spoken English. The language is * * *. Generally speaking, a person can accurately distinguish the curled tongue, flat tongue, front nasal sound and back nasal sound in Mandarin, so he can also distinguish various pronunciations in English. In the year when I took the college entrance examination. Spoken English is divided into three parts.

Part A is pronunciation, and the first understanding is in it. When you understand how to distinguish the details in the language, you will pass the test. Part b tests listening and depends on practice. Part C is the most difficult part in listening, writing and speaking.

Let's talk about it in detail

I suggest you read more books in this respect, and I'm too embarrassed to communicate directly with others. In the morning, you can take an English book by yourself, find a corner and read it aloud. You'll feel it if you watch it too much. Listen more, listen to authentic English, you can listen to English songs, or how people in American dramas speak.

To practice listening, I suggest you find VOA. Every morning at 6: 30, the school will prepare to play some heard English, and I don't know what to throw up. Those are actually slow VOA, and what I want you to listen to is constant VOA. You can find a lot of information about VOA on the VeryCD website. Watch out for constant speed VOA.

/topics/2724864/ You can download it here, put it on your mobile phone or MP3, and listen to it before going to bed 15 minutes. Listen attentively, and it will be fine if you listen more. Let me remind you first that students who listen to VOA for the first time may feel very broken, because it is news to Americans and the speed can be imagined. VOA text will be included in the package download or downloaded to the mobile phone. Note, repeat the sentence and listen to 100 times. If it is better than 100, listen to it every time. After listening to a piece of news thoroughly, you can open the text and read it. Let's see what he is throwing up.

In fact, listening to VOA is very interesting, and news in various fields will be involved, such as entertainment, sports, politics, science and so on.

For part c, shorthand is very important. Tell me how I did it myself: simple words, start recording the first time, write crazily, write down what I heard, and record phrases and words. If you can remember a lot repeatedly, you can start to reorganize the article the second time, that is to say, make a draft, continue to write crazily, and pay attention to writing like a composition. I can write an article almost completely when recording is officially started. After the recording begins, you can read in an orderly way. At this time, we should pay attention to the speed of speech, not too fast (I read my article too fast because of the good draft of oral English in the college entrance examination, and I finished it in more than 30 seconds, and the result is ...), and not too slow.
