李阳十大经典学习方法

英文学习 No Comments »
“疯狂”代表着人类超越自我的精神,代表着对理想的执着追求,代表着对事业忘我的全 情投入,代表着不达目的誓不罢休的激情。人一旦有了这种疯狂,做任何事情都可以成功 。何况攻克英语!

-- 李阳 第一焦点:句子就是一切!句子就是财富!

克立兹提倡的英语学习单位是句子,句子简单明确,容易掌握,并马上可以用于交流!感觉棒极了!味道好极了!

可悲的现实:从初中学英语到现在,辛辛苦苦学习了上百课精读,但结局如何?大家心里最清楚:学精读、分析课文的时候清清楚楚,充满成就感,好象是学到了很多知识、很多单词、很多语法、很多”语言点”,但在实际应用的时候却模模糊糊,似是而非,几乎说不出几个正确的句子!几乎全部还给了课本!

强烈的呼吁:学习精读的时候,一定要把课文中实用的句子总结出来,并脱口而出!这才是真正的学习语言!

冲天的信心:学习英语没有什么了不起!你的征服对象不过是一句话,最多也就是一、两条语法,十来个单词!任何人都可以学好英语!

疯狂的成就:从小学四年级开始学英文,如果每天脱口而出五句话,到上初中时,就已经可以脱口而出五千五百多句话,举一反三就可以拥有近两万个实用句子,两万笔英语财富,早已达成自由交流的境界!一个初一学生的英语能力将远远超过一个大学生,因为绝大多数苦读十年的人只会说:My English is poor!

1、 A: How are you doing?(最地道的打招呼用语)B:I’m doing great.
2、 I hope you’re enjoying your stay here.
3、 You have my word.(向你保证)
4、 I think exactly the same way.
5、 Tell me all about your troubles.
6、 It is never too late to learn.
7、 Nothing down, nothing up.
8、 To get ahead(出人头地)you’ll have to work long hours and take short vacations.
(多流汗,少享受)
9、 No sweet without sweat.
10、 He who makes no mistakes, makes nothing(不犯错,将一事无成)
11、 I’ve heard so much about you(久仰大名!)
12、 He’s been out of a job for months.(他已经失业好几个月了。)
13、 Would you care for a cup of coffee?(要不要来杯咖啡?)
14、 My intentions were good.(我是好意的。)(美国电影常用)
15、 Would you mind if I took a day off?(我请一天假可以吗?)
16、 There were 15 votes in favor of my suggestion, and 23 against.
(十五票赞成,二十三票反对。)(超级实用精品句)
17、 It was not as good as I had expected. (那不如我想象的好)
再来一个漂亮的六星级句子(比最高星级酒店还高级)
18、 You’d have more chance of catching the train if you took a bus to the station instead of walking.(如果你不是步行而是乘公共汽车的话,那你就比较有可能赶上火车)

第二焦点:三最口腔肌肉训练法!

学习外语就是训练口腔肌肉,使之轻松地发出陌生的外国声音,变以成灵活的国际肌肉;学习外语就是苦练脱口而出!只有这样才是真正地拥有语言!克立兹独创的”三最”口腔肌肉训练法将复杂、冷酷的外语学习变成了简单刺激的游戏!

做法:用最大声、最清晰、最快速的办法反复操练句子或小短文直至脱口而出。每次记录时间,争取打破上次成绩,也可互相比赛。

English has become an international language. Wherever you go , English is always commonly used. It is convenient to know the language.

第三焦点:一口气训练法!

这个方法主要训练你说英语的底气。做法很简单,你只需要深呼吸,然后在一口气里尽量多读。经过一段时间的训练,原来需要换几次气的短文,一口气就能轻松读完!

第四焦点:五大发音要点!(详见前文“美国味”英语五大发音要点

李阳·克立兹将复杂的语音规则总结成五大发音要点,使一般人都能迅速掌握。它们是:长元音双元音饱满;短元音急促;连音;略音和咬舌头。

下面举几个例子:

1、 I don’t-know what-to do.(两个辅音连接,只读后一个)
2、 I’m working on-it.(连音)
3、 Ask-Bob-to sit-behind-me.(略音)
4、Mike likes to write by the nice bright light at night(元音极其饱满)
5、 A:What are you planning to do? B: I’m hoping to go to China.
6、 Neither father nor mother likes this weather.(咬五次舌头)

第五焦点:口语突破语法!

语法是中国人最头疼的一个问题。李阳·克立兹的解决办法是:一句话突破一条语法!英语中难的语法不过几十条,也就是说,只需要脱口而出几十句话就可以基本上掌握英语语法的精华,而且能脱口而出,活学活用,举一反三!没有用的语法暂时不要学,系统全面地学习语法只会系统全面地忘记,而且非常辛苦,因为人脑不是电脑。

1、 if she could help you ,she would help you.(如果她能帮你,她一定会的)
2、 John stopped studying. =John is not going to study anymore.
3、 John stopped to study. =John stopped doing sth. In order to study.
4、 I have just finished my work.(表示刚刚完成的动作)
5、 He has gone to America.(他去了美国。)(表示结果持续至今)
6、 He has been to America.(他曾去过美国。)(至示曾经有过的经验)
7、 He has lived here for a year.(表示持续到现在的行为)
8、 I enjoyed the movie very much. I wish I had read the book from which it was made.
(电影不错,我希望我读过原著)(选自国外权威考试)
语法:wish+主语+过去完成时=愿望之事在wish以前发生。
特别提醒:一定要用地道关用的句子来学习语法,这亲学习才能和语法建立深厚的感情,才能充满交流的渴望,才能一鸣惊人!

1、 I sometimes stay up till midnight.(一般现在时)
2、 She’s always helping people.(现在进行时)
3、 He is going to change his job.(一般将来时)

第六焦点:口语突破单词!

坚决反对孤立地记忆单词!克立兹倡导用实用的句子记忆单词,只有这样才有意义,才能真正地建立感情,地久天长!请记住:人是用句子进行交流的!

1、 I assure you of its quality.(我向你保证它的品质。)
2、 The President is going to address(发表演讲)the nation on television this evening.
(总统今晚将向全国发表电视讲话。)
3、 You can forget that! You don’t stand a chance of getting the job.
*stand a chance =have a chance 有机会;有可能;有希望

第七焦点:口语突破听力!

你一定能听懂你能说出的东西!你只管去大量地练习说,只要发音纯正、用法地道,你的听力自然突破!而且采用的是超级三最法。比外国人说得还快,难道还怕听不懂吗?

1、 If only our team had scored one more point.(要是我们队多得一分就好了。)
2、 She began playing the violin when she was nine.
3、 Nobody likes grapes more than I do.(我最喜欢葡萄)
4、 The outdoor concert was called off due to the weather.(户外音乐会由于天气之故而被取消。)
5、 Ann prefers cold weather to hot weather.
6、 I was so angry that I could hardly speak.(气得说不出话来)

第八焦点:口语突破考试!

把考试题总结成口语,用三最法脱口而出!你肯定会快速成为考试高手。更重要的是:你获得了真正的英语交流能力。这才是祖国改革开放和经济建设最迫切需要的能力。这是一个”一举数得”、”利国利民”的方法。

1、 You were late again this morning. I think you had better (start being) on time.
(你早晨又迟到了,我想你最好开始守时。)(托福)

4、 I gave her (my) address and she gave me (hers)(九六广州初中会考)
5、 (What) we can’t get seems better than (what) we have.(九六全国高考)

第九焦点:学一句算一句,说一句顶十句!

学一句就要一丝不苟地脱口而出一句,不懂只是一次不懂,糊涂只是一次糊涂!不再做学了忘、忘了学的无聊游戏!而且说一句就要字正腔圆,不是外国人而胜似外国人!气势压人,高人一等!说一句顶十句!而不是说了十句,别人还把你当初学者!

1、 How long have you been studying English?(你学英语多久了)
(这个最基本的句子几乎没人能脱口而出)
2、 Happiness in my work is most important to me.(工作中开心最重要)
3、 I’m afraid I won’t be able to come.(我恐怕不能来)
4、 I’m feeling under the weather.(我觉得不舒服)
5、 I see your point, but I still can’t agree with you.(我懂你的意思,但我仍然不能同意你)

第十焦点:一年的零碎时间足以攻克英语!

大量地制作小纸条,这样可以语言环境随时身携带,可以反复剌激大脑,增强记忆,可以充分利用零碎时间,可以有效控制懒惰。一天轻轻松松脱口而出十句话,一年零零碎碎却真真正正攻克英语,英语变成了你的业余爱好。

How to improve writing?

英文学习 No Comments »

Q: How can I improve my writing if I cannot write complete sentences?

A: Wring is to express your thought through language. Here we have to key elements: language and thought. For a successful writing activity to happen, both are necessary. When writing in our mother tongue, we spend almost no time in considering language, so our attention is mainly on contents. But when writing in a foreign language, we have to pay attention to both language and thought. If we cannot deal with these two, we might never learn to write in a foreign language well.

Generally speaking, learning to write in a foreign language demands you to go through three steps, although there is not clear distinction between them. First, learning the basic vocabulary and grammar of this language. At this time, learners have not grasped the basic usage, therefore are still in the basic stage of language learning. Writing exercise usually does not exit in this period; even if it does, it mainly serves a kind of vocabulary or grammar exercise. This kind of writing practice presents very simple contents, but requires that learners should use both vocabulary and grammar correctly.

Second, learning both language and thought expression. At this time, learners have already got familiar with the basic vocabulary and grammar, and can express simple ideas in this language. Writing exercises at this stage can work for two purposes. Firstly, they can help learners further their understanding of this language. Secondly, they can help learners express certain ideas in foreign language. In the learning practice, these two aspects are actually inseparable. Many students start to keep diary in English from Junior Three; they are in fact progressing in this second stage.

Third, learning to focus on thought. When learners can deal with the vocabulary and grammar of a foreign satisfactorily, and can use the language to express rather complicated ideas, they start to enter the third stage. Here language is no longer the biggest problem; instead, how to present good contents gains top priority. What learners pay attention to is how to choose their materials well, how to organize the ideas well, etc. Some people hold that only this third stage is really writing. This may be too biased. Writers, however, have to reach the third stage in order to be successful.

If you find it difficult to write complete sentences, you are still in the first stage. At this stage, you do not have to rush to long articles, although you may have some precious profound ideas in your mind. You should make efforts in language accumulation, paying special attention to usages of common words and sentence patterns. Besides, doing translation exercise may also help you improve your ability in using the language, thus making preparation for improving your writing ability. Many exercises in our translation column are also helpful in improving your ability in writing. What’s more, doing more reading exercises can also help sharpen your sensitivity towards the language.

To sum up, you may try to make efforts in these three aspects: accumulate language materials, try some translation exercises, and take up some reading exercises. As your language proficiency gradually improves, you will also gradually move into the second stage. Then you will have no trouble in producing complete sentences.

问题:我发觉写不出完整的句子,该怎样做才能提高我的写作水平?

回答:写作就是通过语言表达你自己的思想。这里面有两个要素:语言和思想。对于一个成功的写作来说,这两点缺一不可。在运用母语写作时,基本上不用花很多时间和精力去考虑语言,因而重点是放在内容上。但是在学习用外语写作时,语言和内容就都需要注意。如果处理不好这两者之间的关系,我们可能就永远也学不好外语写作。

一般说来,学习外语写作有三个步骤,虽然这三个步骤是不能截然分开的。

第一,学习这门语言的基本的词汇和语法。此时的学习者对这门外语的基本用法还未掌握,因此尚处于学习语言的基础阶段。这时写作训练一般没有,即使有也只是为练习词汇和语法服务。这种练习一般说来内容都非常简单,强调的是学习者所使用的词汇和语法必须正确。

第二,语言和内容并举。此时的学习者已经掌握了该语言的一些基本的词汇和语法,可以用该语言表达自己的简单的思想。这时的写作练习可以达到两个目的:(1)继续增强对语言的掌握;(2)用外语表达一定的思想。在具体的学习实践中,这两者实际上是不可分的。有许多初三的学生开始用英语记日记,其实他们就正处于这一阶段。

第三,主要强调内容。当学习者对一门外语的词汇和语法有了一定的掌握,可以用它来表达相对复杂的思想时,就基本进入了第三阶段。此时的语言已经不是最大的障碍,如何写出好的内容成了头等大事。这一阶段的学习者所注重的是如何选材、如何组织文章之类的问题。有人说只有这第三阶段的写作才是真正的写作。这一说法可能失之偏颇,但成功的写作是必须达到这第三阶段的。

如果你发觉写出完整的句子尚有困难,这说明你还处于第一阶段。此时你不要急于写出长篇大论,即使你有些想法可能非常深刻。这时你应该做的是注意语言的积累,留意常用词和句型的用法。另外,适当做一些翻译练习也可以帮助你提高运用语言的能力,从而为提高写作能力做好准备。我们的翻译写作栏目中有许多文章实际上对写作能力的提高也是大有裨益的。除此之外,多做一些阅读,培养对语言的感觉也能为提高写作能力做一些准备。

因此,在现阶段可以从以下三个方面着手:积累语言素材、多做翻译练习、多做阅读练习。随着语言能力的提高,你会逐步进入第二阶段,到那时你就不愁写不出句子了。

英文写作第一反应词替换表

英文学习 No Comments »

所谓英文写作第一反应词替换,也就是尽量少用大家第一反应都能想得到的低级词汇,把经常用到的简单词汇换成相应的高级词汇,借此显示自己的语言表达能力,摆谱?还记得《越狱》里的T-bag吧,这家伙虽然凶残成性,但小时候被老爸要求背单词“红宝书”,为的是将来能够当总统,所以腹中词汇量极多,最擅长同义词转换。口语自然用不到这些词,但英文作文不妨用一些高级的词汇,最起码能够拽一下自己的词汇储备。不过还是用的得体才是王道,用得高级不如用得巧。

很多同学经常把第一反应词翻来覆去的用,这样的后果就是:第一,写文章时用词的质量一直上不去;第二,一直缺乏对背过的单词的应用以及通过应用的语境理解和辨析。下面,我给大家列举了我们在写作常用的那些第一反应词的替换表,旨在告诉大家,要让自己的语言表达能力书面化,多样化。

很多同学在写作的时候,往往想到某个意思,立刻脑子中想到都是例如I think, important, show, because, moreandmore等等这些词汇,这些词汇在英语教学中,我们称他们为第一反应词,所谓第一反应词,很好理解,就是每个人第一时间反应出来的这些表达。那么,如果要写出一篇高质量的文章,除了内容,词的使用能够表现出你的英语能力,我们很多同学的阅读词汇量远远大于写作词汇量,原因很简单,大家背了很多漂亮的单词,但是却从不给他们“出镜”的机会,而是把这些第一反应词翻来覆去的用,这样的后果就是:第一,写文章时用词的质量一直上不去;第二,一直缺乏对背过的单词的应用以及通过应用的语境理解和辨析。下面,我给大家列举了我们在写作常用的那些第一反应词的替换表,旨在告诉大家,要让自己的语言表达能力书面化,多样化。

self-statement(个人介绍—-样本)
my background
i was born in a small village of shan dong province on april 4th, 1968. when i was young, my family was very poor, so i had to work to earn money to help my parents after class when i was in the middle school.
in 1986 i was admitted by university of international business and economics (or: uibe) to pursue a bachelor degree in economics. my major is accounting in department of international business management. the undergraduate education gave me a wide range of vision and taught me how to cooperate with others. i developed several professional interests in accounting, finance, and international trade.
the following eight-year working experience offered me a good chance to give full play to my creativity, intelligence and diligence. in 1990-1993, i worked as an assistant to funding manager in china national technical import and export corporation. in 1993-present, i& nbsp;was employed by china kingdom import and export corporation to be the manger of financial and accounting division.
i do believe that with my hard early life, solid educational background and ample working experience, i would be an excellent student of you mba program.
my personal accomplishment:
after graduating from uibe, i was employed as the assistant to the funding manager by china national technical import and export corporation. after reading a lot of related files, and analyzing the overall funding situation of the corporation, i found that the loan policy was not been put into effect. so we have thousands of millions rmb loan with very high interest rate while a large amount of cash in bank with very low interest rate was idle. i reported this to my supervisor, and then we studied and revised the loan policy. this revision saved the corporation approximately rmb thirty millions yuan. in order to raise the funding effectiveness, after one year’s hard work, i developed the internal banking system within the corporation based on the actual funding supp ly and need of the different divisions and projects. this internal banking system made full use of the corporation’ funding resources, and due to this, i was highly praised by the president of the corporation.
why choose your mba program?
after i have worked in business area for eight years, i feel that i need to continue my education by pursuing a master degree in business administration. i have practiced my professional expertise in accounting, demonstrated my leadership abilities and perfected my communication skills. but i have yet to become an entrepreneur in my own right, and to fully master the art of modern business. i want to be trained more vigorously in scientific methods of analysis and synthesis. there are a lot of opportunities and challenges in china that i do not yet fell fully confident to seize. my business career has so far benefited mostly the companies that i worked for, but a good business education in your university will probably become a new era for me.
your university is well known for its excellence in china’s business&n bsp;education. i am sure that, with my extensive business experience, i can be a worthy student of yours. i am anxious to benefit from your seasoned guidance and take advantage of your research facilities.

要学会听懂考官问题
英语中的问题一般分为两种形式:close-ended questions 和 open-ended questions
前者只需要用一、两个词作答,而后者则需要进一步的解释和说明。一般来说面试当中,为了避免谈话陷入沉闷单调的气氛当中,考官一般是要将这两种问题有机地结合起来。考生要准确把握对方所问问题的性质,给予其想要的回答,从而避免了对于只需要简短回答的问题啰嗦个没完,对于需要进一步阐释的问题却回答得不够。两种情况都会给考官留下不好的印象。
一般来说两种问题的引导词有比较明显的不同,请大家注意掌握:
close-ended open-ended both
are…?
do…?
who…?
when…?
where…?
which…? how…?
why…?
in what way…?
tell me about… what…?
【注意】
 对于open-ended questions,在组织答案时,最好先用一句话或者一个短语将你要说的主要意思总结一下,这样不仅可以再拖延一点时间,而且也有助于对方听清楚你的答案,从而会比较容易留下思路清晰的好印象。
e.g. interviewer: why do you want to study for mba?
candidate: that’s a rather difficult question. there are two main reasons, i suppose.
 如果考官对你的回答不甚满意,你也许会听到这样的问题:
i’d like to know some more about…
could you tell me a bit more bout…?
sorry to press you, but could you tell me…?
sorry, i don’t quite understand, could you tell me …?
i didn’t quite follow what you said about…
meaning?
for example?
then you?
therefore?
which means?
so then?
例如:
a: how did you happen to move here?
b: i like the climate better.
a: better than…
b: better than the polluted air of the city.
a: which means…
b: which means i can expect better overall health for myself.
没听懂对方在说什么怎么办?
千万不要往过蒙!!!
你可以:
承认自己不知道答案:
e.g. i’ sorry. i don’t understand.
sorry. i don’t follow.
或者:
请对方重复问题:
e.g. i didn’t catch that. would you mind repeating it?
could you repeat the question, please?
再或者:
请对方为你澄清你没有听清楚的个别词:
e.g. sorry. i don’t know what you mean by ‘union jack’
would you mind explaining ‘union jack’?
