The principle of circular fuzzy memory refers to the attitude of remembering the general meaning first and then remembering it repeatedly later. Some students have a seemingly valuable spirit, that is, they want to memorize all the words in the outline at once, and the slogan is-"Learn new words thoroughly once and for all".

In fact, it is extremely wrong to hope to finish the task once and for all. It's like remembering the phone numbers of a few friends. If you remember for a few hours, but don't call later (that is, don't review), you may forget it after a week, but if you can call from time to time (review after today), you may not forget it for a long time.

In this way, it will be more difficult to remember the outline vocabulary for the first time, and it will be difficult to remember it accurately. Never mind, just let your brain have a vague general meaning first. Because in the exercises that must be done in the future (such as reading, translation, etc. ), the meaning of the word will gradually become accurate and clear.

The principle of comparative memory is a method that anyone who tries hard to memorize words will have to use because of the increase in the number of words, and it is also a method that naturally comes to mind.

For example, if we remember contribute and distribute, we may not be confused, but if attribute appears in reading, it will be both familiar and unfamiliar; Another example is reciting posture, latitude, adaptability and longitude; You may see the altitude and think it means latitude.
