I'm often asked how to study English effectively. I think this means getting the most out of your study time, and that means variety. Here are some basic ideas for success to help you as you study English.
常有人問(wèn)我如何高效地學(xué)英語(yǔ),我想就是要讓學(xué)習(xí)時(shí)間得到充分地利用,如何利用卻是因人而異的。下面是一些方法幫你成功地學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)。

Study Every Day
每天學(xué)習(xí)

It's important to study English every day. However, don't exaggerate! Study for thirty minutes every day instead of two hours once a week. This habit of studying English every day will help keep English in your brain fresh.
每天學(xué)英語(yǔ)很重要。但是,也別過(guò)了頭!每天學(xué)半個(gè)小時(shí),而不要一周學(xué)一次,一次學(xué)兩小時(shí)。每天學(xué)英語(yǔ)的習(xí)慣會(huì)讓英語(yǔ)在你的頭腦中保持新鮮。

A Little Grammar, A Little Listening, A Little Reading, and A little Writing
學(xué)一點(diǎn)語(yǔ)法、一點(diǎn)聽(tīng)力、一點(diǎn)閱讀、一點(diǎn)寫(xiě)作

Next, make sure to study a number of areas rather than focusing on just one topic. Study a little grammar, then do a short listening exercise, then perhaps read an article on the same topic. Don't do too much, twenty minutes on three different types of exercises is plenty!
接下來(lái),確保學(xué)習(xí)不同的類(lèi)別,不要僅僅專(zhuān)注于一類(lèi)。學(xué)一會(huì)兒語(yǔ)法,然后做一小段聽(tīng)力練習(xí),接著再讀一篇相關(guān)話(huà)題的文章。別學(xué)太多,花20分鐘在三種不同的練習(xí)上就夠了!

Review Grammar as Your Watch or Read
邊看邊復(fù)習(xí)語(yǔ)法

Give yourself one grammar goal when reading a new article or watching a new video. For example, try to write down each example of a form you are studying such as the present perfect. Use highlighters (colored pens) with texts to highlight forms that you are studying.?
看書(shū)或者看視頻的時(shí)候給自己設(shè)定一個(gè)語(yǔ)法學(xué)習(xí)目標(biāo)。比如,列出你正在學(xué)的語(yǔ)法知識(shí)的全部形式,如現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)。用熒光筆(彩筆)在你讀的書(shū)上做標(biāo)出這些形式。

Use Different Learning Methods
用不同的學(xué)習(xí)方法

Don't just use one way to study English. Use a variety of methods which will help all the parts of your brain help you. For example, if you are learning?new vocabulary, create a word map, describe a picture, make a list and study that. All of these methods together help to reinforce your learning.
不要只用一種方法學(xué)英語(yǔ)。用多種方法學(xué)習(xí)會(huì)調(diào)動(dòng)大腦的各部分助你學(xué)習(xí)。比如,如果你在學(xué)新單詞,畫(huà)一張?jiān)~匯圖、描述一幅圖、列個(gè)清單然后開(kāi)始學(xué)習(xí)。這些方法都會(huì)鞏固你的學(xué)習(xí)。

Find Some Friends
找同伴

You can practice the exercises together, have conversations together (in English!), and, as you study English together, help each other with exercises you may not understand.
你們可以一起做練習(xí),一起聊天(當(dāng)然要用英語(yǔ)!)。你們一起學(xué)的時(shí)候可以互相幫助,解決練習(xí)中的疑惑。

ChooseTopics that Interest You
找個(gè)感興趣的話(huà)題

One of the most important things to do is to study English using topics that you like. This will help motivate you because you will also be learning about a topic you find interesting while you study English.
學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)最重要的一點(diǎn)就是用你喜歡的話(huà)題。這會(huì)激勵(lì)你,因?yàn)槟阍趯W(xué)英語(yǔ)的同時(shí),也學(xué)習(xí)了你所感興趣的話(huà)題。

Warming-up to Study English
學(xué)英語(yǔ)前要熱身

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.
就像打籃球或做其他運(yùn)動(dòng)前要熱身一樣,學(xué)英語(yǔ)前也要熱身。下面就是一些熱身活動(dòng)。

Activating Your Vocabulary
激活詞匯

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.
通過(guò)思考或簡(jiǎn)要敘述你要學(xué)習(xí)的話(huà)題來(lái)激活詞匯。例如,如果你要學(xué)習(xí)有關(guān)假日的話(huà)題,花時(shí)間想一想你在上一次假日中做了什么,享受到了什么等等。這樣簡(jiǎn)單的鍛煉會(huì)激活你的大腦來(lái)學(xué)習(xí)你在某個(gè)特定話(huà)題中將遇到的詞匯。

Activating Your?Grammar
激活語(yǔ)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.
在開(kāi)始學(xué)習(xí)前想一想該語(yǔ)法的基本知識(shí)來(lái)激活語(yǔ)法。例如,如果你要學(xué)習(xí)與過(guò)去時(shí)的相關(guān)語(yǔ)法,就想一想你上周做了什么、去了哪里等等,以此來(lái)幫你激活你已知的過(guò)去時(shí)語(yǔ)法知識(shí)。就像 激活詞匯一樣,這樣就讓大腦在詳細(xì)學(xué)習(xí)語(yǔ)法前就能用簡(jiǎn)單的方式記起所知的過(guò)去時(shí)知識(shí)。

Singing a Song
唱首歌

Before class begins, 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.
課前,唱首英文歌給自己聽(tīng)。確保你唱的歌是自己熟悉的。這個(gè)耗時(shí)少且有趣的鍛煉能讓大腦以放松的方式專(zhuān)注于英語(yǔ)。

Typing a Short Paragraph in English
打一小段英語(yǔ)

You can type about your day, your hobbies, your friends, etc. 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.
你可以打字記錄你的一天、你的愛(ài)好、你的朋友,等等。打字能幫你調(diào)動(dòng)大腦的運(yùn)動(dòng)區(qū),這樣可以幫你通過(guò)動(dòng)手來(lái)學(xué)習(xí)。我也建議一邊打字一邊學(xué)語(yǔ)法,這能通過(guò)動(dòng)作幫你鞏固知識(shí)。
