观门法记忆托福词汇
托福词汇是托福考试的基础,没有了词汇这个基础,接下来的会话、文法、阅读、写作都将无法顺利进行,因此在英语的学习中,“如何背单词”是绝不可忽略的首要之务。有些人背单字是“每背必忘”、“每忘必背”,为此小编总结了六个方法供大家参考,下面是观字法门。
背单字靠的不是记忆力,而是专注力,专注力不够,记忆力就不会强。因此背单字的首要之务是练习专注力,可利用“静坐”、“数息法”等帮助心静下来,心静方能摄物。当你的心静下来后,就可以开始修练这个高老师最喜欢的方法—“观字法门”。
一般人背单字,不断书写复诵只做到了口到手到,心却漂浮不定,没有效用。
“观字法门”的必备条件则是足够的专注力。
“观字法门”-背完一个单字时,是用“思考”的方式让自己“记住”。例如背了一个单字“imp”,闭上眼睛,这三个字必定会浮现在眼前,让字的样子一个一个从心头上熨贴过去,如果心够静,就可以达到“看过等于记得”的境界。
所以考好托福考试的大前提是词汇量,其实在英语考试中,不管是雅思还是托福,不管是口语还是写作,我们都离不开词汇量,这是我们学好英语的基础,所以小编才在这里一再提示词汇量的重要性。
托福词汇记忆法:图像植入法
托福词汇是托福考试的基础,没有了词汇这个基础,接下来的会话、文法、阅读、写作都将无法顺利进行,因此在英语的学习中,“如何背单词”是绝不可忽略的首要之务。有些人背单字是“每背必忘”、“每忘必背”,为此小编总结了六个方法供大家参考,下面是图像植入法。
很多人背单字无法成功的致命伤在于用了“翻译式背诵法”,但若仅是不断地复诵单字,是很容易忘掉的。试着回想小时候学习中文的过程,中文的方块字是不是往往 会与相关画面一同浮现脑海。以此经验为据,即可得知背单字最直接的方式应该是图像植入、搭配意境,以达到背诵的最佳效果。用这种方式背单字之后,下次要用 某单字时就不必再搜寻脑中字库,单字将自然浮现,达到“不思而中”的境界。所以考好托福考试的大前提是词汇量,其实在英语考试中,不管是雅思还是托福,不 管是口语还是写作,我们都离不开词汇量,这是我们学好英语的基础。
