2. Divide Your Listening Time
2、劃分聽力時(shí)間
Which is better: to listen for two hours without a break, or to divide that time during the day?
Well, dividing your listening time is best.
連續(xù)聽兩個(gè)小時(shí)聽力好呢?還是分時(shí)間段聽好呢?當(dāng)然,后者效果更好。
By dividing your time throughout the day, you remember more and learn faster. So it’s much better to listen 30 minutes in the morning, then 30 minutes in the car or train, then 30 minutes coming home from work, then 30 minutes before sleep. In fact, this is the exact schedule I recommend to my students!
分時(shí)間段練習(xí)聽力有助于記憶。早上起床后聽30分鐘,坐車時(shí)聽30分鐘,下班回家路上聽30分鐘,睡覺前聽30分鐘。事實(shí)上,這是我推薦給學(xué)生的時(shí)間表!
3. Use an iPod or MP3 Player
3、利用iPod 或MP3播放器
iPods are fantastic. You can put a big listening library on one. Then you can carry your English lessons everywhere. You can learn English while walking, while shopping, in the car, in a train, while cooking,...
你可以往播放器里下載很多的聽力材料。這樣,不管你走到哪你都可以學(xué)習(xí)英語。當(dāng)你走路時(shí) ,購物時(shí),坐車時(shí),做飯時(shí)······
With an iPod or MP3 player, you don’t have to worry about CDs. Also, you can find a lot of
English listening on the internet. You can find lessons, stories, podcasts, TV shows, interviews, and audio books. Simply download the audio, put it on your iPod. and learn English anywhere!
CD也可以放到播放器里。在網(wǎng)上你可以找到很多關(guān)于英語聽力的課程、故事、音頻等。把他們下載到你的播放器里,你就可以隨時(shí)學(xué)習(xí)英語了!
4. Listen To Movies
4、聽電影
Movies are great for learning English BUT you must use them correctly. Don’t watch all of an English movie. You will not understand it, and therefore you will not learn anything.
電影對(duì)英語學(xué)習(xí)者也很有幫助。但是,你必須正確的運(yùn)用它。不要學(xué)習(xí)一整部電影,你理解不了,也不會(huì)學(xué)到東西。
Only watch one scene or segment per week (maybe 2-3 minutes).
每周只看電影的一個(gè)片段(或許2-3分鐘)
Follow this method:
a)第一遍看母語字幕,這樣幫助你了解大意。
b) Second, watch the scene with English subtitles. Pause. Use a dictionary to find new words you don’t understand. Write the new sentences in a notebook.
b)第二遍看英語字幕。遇到新單詞時(shí)暫停下來,查字典。把這個(gè)新句子寫到筆記本上。
c) Listen to the scene a few times, with English subtitles. Do not pause.
c)反復(fù)聽這個(gè)片段,并帶英語字幕,不要停下來。
d) Listen to the scene a few times, without subtitles.
d)反復(fù)聽,不帶字幕。
e) Repeat a) - d) everyday for one week.
e)每天重復(fù)a)-d),并堅(jiān)持一個(gè)星期。
On the second week, go to the next scene/segment and repeat again. It will take you a long time to finish a movie. That’s OK, because you will improve your listening and speaking VERY FAST. This method is powerful-- use it!
第二周,進(jìn)行下一個(gè)片段。這樣,要想看完一部電影需要很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間,但是它會(huì)很快提高你的聽力和口語。
5. Read and Listen at the Same Time
5、同時(shí)進(jìn)行聽和讀
Listening and
This will improve your pronunciation.
一邊聽材料一邊跟著讀會(huì)提高你的發(fā)音。
邊聽邊讀也會(huì)幫你理解一些較難的材料。聽和讀同時(shí)進(jìn)行會(huì)學(xué)的很快。這樣練習(xí)幾次后,就把材料收起來,只進(jìn)行聽,你會(huì)有意想不到的收獲。
You only need 6 months--6 months and you will speak easily to native speakers.6 months and you will speak quickly and naturally. 6 months and you feel relaxed when you speak English. You have tried the old ways. You tried textbooks. You tried schools. You tried grammar study. It is time to try something new!
只需6個(gè)月你就能夠和外國(guó)人輕松地進(jìn)行交流。你可能嘗試了一些老方法:讀課文,上輔導(dǎo)學(xué)校,學(xué)習(xí)語法等。何不嘗試一些其他的新方法呢!
Good luck. I wish you success with your English learning!
