英文學習五要訣
英文五要訣
想要成為英文通，首先就要積極充實英文字彙。經過語言學家長期研究發現，以下五個要訣，可讓您在短時間內，提升您在英文字彙學習上的效率：(我忘了哪裡找的，可能是某個網站摘錄，看過的大大請包含)
【要訣一】
Read, Read, Read! Most vocabulary words are learned from context. The more words you are exposed to, the better vocabulary you will have. While you read, pay close attention to words you don't know. First, try to figure out their meanings from context. Then look the words up. Read challenging material so that you will be exposed to many new words.
閱讀，閱讀，再閱讀！個人字彙中大部份的字是由閱讀文章而學來的。您接觸到越多字，字彙能力就會越好。當您閱讀的時候，要特別留意您所不認識的那些字。首先，試著從文章上下文中猜出它們的意思，然後再查字典。閱讀具挑戰性的題材，您就會接觸到許多新字。

【要訣二】
Practice, practice, practice. Learning a word won't help very much if you promptly forget it. Research shows that it takes from 10 to 20 repetitions to really make a word part of your vocabulary. Therefore, as soon as you learn a new word, start using it. Review those words you have learned periodically to see if you have forgetten any of them.
練習，練習，再練習！如果您學到了一個字，卻很快地忘掉，這樣一來，這學到的字對您不會有什麼幫助。研究報告顯示，要讓一個字成為您個人字彙的一部份，需要花上十到二十次的反複閱讀。定期複習那些已學過的字，看看您是否忘掉其中任何一個字。

【要訣三】
Make up as many associations and connections as possible. Say the word aloud to activate your auditory memory. Relate the word to words you already know.
儘量編造許多聯想與關連。大聲唸出來引發聽覺記憶；或者，將其與您已認識的字相關聯。

【要訣四】
Get in the habit of looking up words you don't know. Have a dictionary program on your computer, keep it handy. Don't just skip new words. Find them and look up any word you are not absolutely sure of.
養成查字典的習慣。在電腦中安裝字典程式，並能隨時快速查用。當閱讀時，不要略過生字。找出它們的正確意思，並且對於意思不很確定的字，也一定要查出正確的意思與用法。

【要訣五】
Play with words. Play word games can help you memorize new words more quickly in a fun way. YouSmart games are designed for you to play alone, you are not dependent on a partner to play.
玩字彙遊戲。玩字彙遊戲可幫助您以有趣的方式，快速地記住新字。YouSmart遊戲可讓您一人獨自複習，您不需要藉由他人來玩。
