Get the right resources for learning: A grammar book, memorization software, and films/books. 2. Get a private tutor. You want one for at least a month. I recommend four hours/day. 3. Attempt to speak and think only in the new language. Every time you can’t remember a word, put that word into your memorization software. Practice your vocabulary daily. 4. Find friends, language partners, and other speakers of the language. Once you can have basic conversations with your private tutor, you need to find other partners. If you haven’t already, think about moving to the country where the language is spoken. Consider a group class. Practice continuously. 1.找到学习的正确资源:一本语法书,一个记忆软件,若干电影或 书籍 2.请一位私人教师。你至少需要私人教师陪练一个月时间,我建议 每天四小时。 3.试着只用这门新的语言说话和思考。每当你想不起一个单词的时 候,把那个词输入你的记忆软件。每天进行词汇练习。 4.寻找朋友、语言学习搭档或者其他说这门语言的人。一旦你可以 和私人教师进行基本会话,你就需要寻找其他的搭档。如果你还没有 准备好,考虑一下搬去说那门语言的国家。也可以参加集体授课班级 。要不停地练习。 That’s the basic strategy. Again, this strategy is intensive, because learning a language in three months is a difficult task. If you’d prefer to learn the language more slowly or you don’t have the ability to move to a new country and practice 4-8 hours a day, then you can modify the plan. It is extremely important that you practice every day, however—20 minutes a day is much better than once or twice a week. 这就是基本策略。这些策略执行起来非常有强度,因为在三个月 内学会一门语言并非易事。如果你想要慢点学或者你没法搬去另一个 国家,或者你不能保证每天学习4-8小时,你也可以调整计划。最重要 的是你要每天练习,每天20分钟总比一周才练一两次要好。 学习一门语言需要的资源 The Resources You Need To Learn A Language A good grammar book. This is essential if you want to learn a language. A phrase book. This is similar to a dictionary, but for phrases. You can start memorizing full sentences and phrases, and you’ll naturally learn the individual words. An online dictionary. For most romance langauges, I recommend http://wordreference.com. Google Translate can be useful, but it easily becomes a crutch. Use it sparingly. A memorization app. You have to memorize vocabulary. I always put new words in my app, and practice them every night. 一本好的语法书。如果你想要学习一门语言,这是必备的。 一本短语手册。这和字典类似,但是内容是关于短语的。你可以 从记忆完整的句子和短语开始,之后自然会学会单独的词语。 一本在线字典。对于大部分由拉丁语演变而成的语言,我推荐 wordreference网站。谷歌翻译可以很有用,但也容易产生依赖性,要 适度使用。 一款记忆应用程序。你必须要记单词。我总是把新单词输入记忆 程序,然后每晚练习。 如需更多精彩内容或订阅,请登陆:uni.xinhuaonline.com 联系方式:北京朝阳区东大桥路8号尚都国际502室( 100020) 联系电话:010-58700900 总第074期 2013年02月 DOWJONES EDUCATION 道琼斯全球资讯数据库精选 13 words of classic life English counsel 1.One is always on a strange road, watching strange scenery and listeningto strange music.
