不管是英語(yǔ)或其他語(yǔ)言,要想增加詞匯量就需要付出努力。將新詞寫(xiě)成一張長(zhǎng)長(zhǎng)的清單并不是一種提高詞匯量的有效方式。本文中介紹的技巧會(huì)幫助你擴(kuò)大詞匯量,但你自己也需要投身其中,研究和擴(kuò)大詞匯量。
1. Vocabulary Trees
詞匯樹(shù)
Vocabulary trees help provide context. Once you've mapped out a few vocabulary trees, you'll discover yourself thinking in vocabulary groups. When you see a cup your mind will quickly relate such words as knife, fork, plate, dishes, etc.
詞匯樹(shù)可以為你提供一個(gè)語(yǔ)境。當(dāng)你繪制出詞匯樹(shù)時(shí),你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)自己開(kāi)始對(duì)詞匯群進(jìn)行思考。當(dāng)你看見(jiàn)一個(gè)杯子時(shí),腦海中就會(huì)很快想到相關(guān)詞語(yǔ),如knife(小刀),fork(叉子),plate(碟子),dishes(餐具)等詞。
2. Create Vocabulary Themes
創(chuàng)造詞匯主題
Create a list of vocabulary themes, include the vocabulary, a definition and an example sentence for each new item.
列出一個(gè)詞匯主題的列表,包括詞匯、定義以及每個(gè)詞語(yǔ)對(duì)應(yīng)的例子。
3. Use Technology to Help You
利用科技
Watching DVDs is a great way to help you understand native speakers of English. Using all the fancy optionswatching individual scenes can help make DVD use into a vocabulary learning exercise.
看DVD是一個(gè)幫助你聽(tīng)懂英語(yǔ)母語(yǔ)者說(shuō)話的好方法。精心選擇一些單獨(dú)的場(chǎng)景,可以幫助你將觀看DVD作為一種練習(xí)詞匯的方式。
4. Specific Vocabulary Lists
專(zhuān)門(mén)的詞匯列表
Rather than studying a long list of unrelated vocabulary, use specific vocabulary lists to help you prepare for the type of vocabulary you need for work, school or hobbies.
比起將不相關(guān)的詞匯做成一張長(zhǎng)長(zhǎng)的列表來(lái)學(xué)習(xí),專(zhuān)門(mén)的詞匯列表可以幫助你對(duì)工作、學(xué)習(xí)或愛(ài)好中所需的詞匯進(jìn)行針對(duì)性的準(zhǔn)備。
5. Word Formation Charts
構(gòu)詞表
Word formation is one of the keys to success for advanced level ESL learners. Advanced level English exams such as the TOEFL, First Certificate CAE and Proficiency use word formation as one of the key testing elements.
構(gòu)詞法是高級(jí)ESL(非英語(yǔ)母語(yǔ)課程)學(xué)習(xí)者取得成效的重要方法之一。一些高級(jí)英語(yǔ)考試,如托福、英語(yǔ)證書(shū)考試都將構(gòu)詞法列入重要考點(diǎn)。
6. Learn Collocations
學(xué)會(huì)搭配
Collocations refer to words that often or always go together. A good example of a collocation is to do your homework.
搭配指的是經(jīng)常一起出現(xiàn)的詞語(yǔ)。舉一個(gè)典型的例子:to do your homework
