  简单学英语的窍门:英语听力练习的基本原则

  英语听力在英语学习中的重要性再强调也不过分。留学生能听懂老师讲课是做研究的前提,人们出国生活不可避免地要从广播、电视中获取信息,此外国内考试也越来越重视考察听力能力。英语听力成为在国外学习生活,以及考试中必需掌握的能力。那么,我们应该怎样提高英语听力呢?

  首先,应该认识到英语是拼音语言,每个单词记录的是音节而不是图像(而中文是方块文字,从象形文字演变而来)。因此在学英语的过程中需要听熟单词的发音。我们不能认为看着单词、短语能回忆出中文解释就学会了,还应该用耳朵去分辨单词、短语,多在语境中体会意义建立语感,提高对音的反应速度,减少对中文解释的依赖。

  其次,大量练习是不可缺少的。听力教程、英语广播、双语字幕的电影、国际会议上领袖的演讲都是练习听力的好材料。拿新闻广播举例来说,VOA Special English, VOA Standard English, CNN, NPR, BBC等都很不错,学生可以到普特网、卡卡英语、听力特快、可可英语,大耳朵英语等网站免费下载每天更新的材料,并根据实际情况练习。

  高中水平或大学一年级的同学建议听VOA特别英语(语速在每分钟90词左右,词汇量相对较少),刚开始学口译的同学也可以用来练交传。对于想打牢基础的同学,建议用逆向英语听写法做练习。①先把新闻从头到尾听两遍,听懂大意,然后以句子为单位听写。②把听懂的词用黑笔按顺序写在纸上。对于生词,要准确抓住各个音节,尽量去模仿,提高耳朵辨别声音的能力(这一步是训练的关键),然后用从音标查单词的软件来查词。最后应该指出,听写的缺点是耗时,刚开始练一篇3分钟的材料可能要一上午才能听写完。因此先精听精练10篇左右即可,此外还应该多泛听。

  大学高年级的同学可以多听VOA常速, NPR, BBC等新闻(语速在每分钟120-140词左右),听完后一定要做glossary(词汇表),把重要的单词短语搜集整理出来。这是一项辛苦漫长的工作。高年级听力练习中,学生经常发现自己并不是单词量不够,而是短语量不够。同学常常每个词都知道什么意思,可组成短语就感到茫然,或者即使能理解但反应很慢,严重影响听力的反应速度。例如:miscarriage of justice审判不公,Benjamin Netanyahu内塔尼亚胡(以色列),Palestinian authority president巴勒斯坦民族权力机构主席,Kuala Lumpur(吉隆坡)。

  最后,人们常说"听说不分家",但中国学生开口真的很困难。在"说"方面,为了让我们先开口,可以尝试三步:①跟读;②paraphrase或化简(看着文本思考意义相同或更简洁的表达,激活过去的学过的词汇,解决表达储备不足的问题);③复述(在前两步的基础上,不看文本,回忆学到的原文表达或者第二步里想到的简洁表达)。

  简单学英语的窍门:如何有效地学习英语

  There are many ways to study English, but many students ask which is the most effective. Unfortunately, I don't think there is a single answer that is right for every student. However, I can certainly give some helpful guidelines on how to study that should help.

  英语学习有很多方式,但是,许多学生感到困惑,哪种方式才是英语学习最有效方式呢?我认为单纯的一种答案是无法满足所有学生的。尽管如此,我们可以提供一些有效的英语学习指南。

  Warming-up to Study English

  学习英语之前的准备工作

  Just as there are exercises to help you warm up before you play some basketball or other sport, there are exercises which can help you warm up to study English. Here are some simple exercises to help you warm up.

  就像打篮球或在进行其它运动项目之前要做一些热身运动一样,学习英语也是如此。以下就为您介绍一些简单的热身练习:

  Study English I:Activating Your Vocabulary

  第一种:激活词汇

  Activate your vocabulary by thinking or speaking briefly about the subject you are about to work on. For example, if you are going to study English on topics that focuses on vacations, take a moment to think about your last vacation, what you did, what you enjoyed, etc. This simple exercise will help your brain warm-up to vocabulary that you are likely to encounter as you study English about this particular subject.

  通过粗略思考或说出你要学习的主题来激活你大脑中的词汇。举个例子,如果你要学习假期这个主题,那就花点时间想一下在你最后一次机器的时候,你都干了什么,玩了什么等等。这个简单的练习会帮助你激活大脑中可能遇到的与该主题相关的词汇。

  Study English II: Activating Your Grammar

  第二种:激活语法

  Activate your grammar by thinking about the general grammar area before you begin to study. For example, if you are going to study English grammar focusing on the past, stop to think about what you did last weekend, where you went, etc. to help activate what you already understand about using the past. As with activating vocabulary, you'll help your brain bring up what it knows about the past simple in an easy way before you begin to focus on studying English grammar in detail.

  在学习之前,通过想一想通用的语法点来激活你大脑中的语法。举个例子,如果你要学习过去式相关的语法,在学习前,先想一想你上周末都干了什么,去了哪之类的,从而帮助你激活大脑中已有的过去式的用法。与激活大脑中的词汇如出一辙,在你开始学习英语语法细节之前,该练习会帮助你的大脑以简单的方式回忆与过去式相关的知识。

  Study English III: Singing a Song

  第三种: 唱英文歌

  Before class begins, or before you sit down to study English sing a song in English to yourself. Make sure to use a song that you understand and know very well. This short and fun exercise will help your brain focus on the English language in a relaxing manner. It's important to be relaxed when you study English! Singing a song also helps activate the creative side of your brain which can help you come up with more examples as your practice conversation or do some creative writing.

  上英语课或是学习英语之前,先给自己唱首英文歌吧!确保自己对于所唱的英文歌非常熟悉。这个简短且有趣的练习可以帮助你的大脑在放松状态下思考英语这种语言。放松的英语学习状态是非常重要的!唱一首英文歌还能激活大脑创造力的一侧,帮助你在练习对话或进行创作时迸发更多的灵感。

  Study English IV: Typing e a Short Paragraph in English

  第四种: 用英语写一篇小短文

  If you going to study English at your desk, begin by typing a simple paragraph in English. You can type about your day, your hobbies, your friends, etc. Anything will do. Typing helps activate the kinetic part of your brain that helps improve learning through physical activity. I also recommend typing while you study your English grammar. This will help solidify your knowledge with movement.

  在开始学习英语之前,先写一篇英语小短文。可以介绍你今天的情况,兴趣爱好,或者朋友之类的任何事情。这个练习会帮助你激活大脑中活跃区域,通过身体活动来提高英语。此外,我还建议在学习英语语法的时候也做该项练习。该练习可通过动作巩固所学知识。

  Study English V: A Thousand Words

  第五种: 一千个单词

  As the saying goes in English, a picture is worth a thousand words. Help activate the creative side of your brain by trying to describe a photo or other image. You can combine use this also to activate your vocabulary by choosing a picture that has something to do with the subject your are going to study in English.

  俗话说,一张图片胜过千言万语。描述一张照片或者一些其它的图片,可激活大脑中创造力的一侧。也可以选取与你要学习的英语主题相关的图片进行描述以激活你大脑中的词汇。
