Extended data:
1, if you want to improve your English, there is one thing that you can never ignore-words. No matter how hard you work on listening, speaking, reading and writing, as long as your vocabulary is small, it is difficult to make qualitative progress. Therefore, the first point to improve English is "memorizing words".
2. Let's briefly introduce three core mnemonics.
(1) reading memory
As the name implies, reading memory refers to memorizing words by reading English articles and materials. In the process of reading, we can memorize words in the order of circling new words, studying sentences repeatedly, sketching phrases, understanding replacement words, and clarifying the meanings of familiar words (such as hubband nouns for husband and verbs for frugality).
Advantages: you can know the actual and specific usage of words from the article through the context; Impressed; More interesting
Disadvantages: you can't increase your vocabulary quickly in a short time.
(2) Rules of etymology, affixes, etymology and letters.
About two-thirds of English words contain root affixes, most of which can be solved by memory. Usually the prefix of a word indicates affirmation, negation, quantity and direction; Suffixes determine the part of speech; The root indicates the meaning of a word. In contrast, the memory of etymology and letters is more suitable for the memory of monosyllabic words.
Advantages: the number of words can be quickly broken in a short time; Effective memory
Disadvantages: it is difficult to use in your own sentences; Memory process is boring; Easy to forget
③ Lenovo
Make up stories, make up formulas, and use homophones and other associative ways to help remember vocabulary. For example, thank you (three grams of oil) and two hands (stealing a man), which were popular on the Internet some time ago, belong to the category of associative memory.
Advantages: avoid the boring state when memorizing vocabulary.
Disadvantages: Not all words can be memorized in this way.
It is very important to recite words repeatedly. Review and consolidate the words memorized before every day, otherwise it is easy to find that there are very few words really remembered after brushing.
