很多人讀英文，會犯以下三個錯誤。 1、讀太難的內容 2、一直查字典 3、只讀一次 ---------------------------------- 第一。太難的定義是什麼？就是一整頁，沒辦法讀懂80%以上的內容。或是一頁不會的單字超過五個。太難的內容會讓你沒辦法讀懂句型，記得，閱讀不是背單字。太多太難的單字會讓讀不下去。 第二。狂查字典，很多人看到不會的單字，就會停下來查字典。不要這樣！這會讓你陷入翻譯思維。尤其比較難，或抽象的單字無法翻譯。應該試著透過上下文體會、理解單字意思，這樣比較容易記住。 第三。內容只讀一次。小朋友為什麼學得快，有沒有發現他們同一本書大概讀十次？他不像你們容易無聊要一直找新東西。我小時候一本喜歡的英文書因為讀太多次，整本背下來。你也要這樣，讀越多次越好。 ---------------------------------- 「英文閱讀步驟」 1. 看封面、猜內容是什麼 2. 讀第一次，可以先讀一個章節。記錄不會的單字，但不用查，先了解劇情，方便第二次閱讀研究上下文。 3. 讀第二次，研究上下文，猜測單字的意思。 4. 讀第三次，這時候，不會的單字可以查了。 5. 不要只記單字、片語。整個句型記下來，才不會單字使用錯誤。 6. 回顧。想辦法重新講一次書本內容，試著使用剛剛使用到的單字。再跟書本比較自己的內容是否正確。 ---------------------------------- 網站：https://www.english-great-easy.com YouTube：https://goo.gl/L7qFRQ 粉專「英文不難」：https://goo.gl/n8NmBr IG「英文不難」：https://www.instagram.com/english.great.easy/ -- Hosting provided by SoundOn
