How to memorize English words for postgraduate entrance examination skillfully

The most common problem in learning English is insufficient vocabulary. People with insufficient vocabulary will be severely restricted in English listening, speaking, reading and writing. Therefore, vocabulary plays an important role in English learning. It is generally believed that memorizing words is a laborious and usually ineffective chore. In fact, if we can take appropriate measures, we can shorten the time needed to expand our vocabulary and improve the quality of memorizing words. The following will introduce several word memorization methods.

A similar memory method

Through the exploration of English vocabulary logical memorization, it is found that this method is completely different from the traditional word memorization in memory unit, order, angle, space and thinking mode, which is eye-opening.

1. The traditional memory method is based on letters, while the logical memory rule is based on words. For example, according to the traditional mnemonic method, we should remember the word dapple, pronounce it correctly with the help of international phonetic symbols, and remember its part of speech and Chinese meaning. According to the psychologist's test, repeat 100- 150 times at least. Logical memory method is based on words: apple apple; Spots. If you want to remember the word "dapple", just add a "d" before the word "apple" and use the logical memory method of word as a unit. Repeat three or five times to remember, and remember one word to remember two words. Logical memory method changes the memory space of words, that is, on the basis of words, it expands the memory space and realizes the vertical expansion of vocabulary. For example, we now use the word angle to realize the vertical expansion of memory space in the order of 26 English letters: angle, hook bracelet and anklet; Hanging hanging; A new style and new inventions; Gunler moved awkwardly; Hangle iron pot hook; Cangir screeched; Tearing hits and slashes; Let Le feed the eagle with small gravel; Quarrel; Tangled and tangled; Entanglement; Untie; Wang Le twisted and squeezed;

2. Logical memory method is completely different from traditional memory method in memory order and angle. Logical memory method uses various sequences to analyze a specific vocabulary from multiple angles, directions and sides, find out the words with the least letters, and then train these words more or less or from less to more until the thinking mode is formed and memorized. For example, the word scrap is a word according to the traditional mnemonic method. Just remember. However, according to the requirements of changing memory units and changing memory order by logical memory method, we must remember the following points: scrap (fragment), crap (dice rolling) and rap (fascination);

3. The logical memory of English vocabulary is quite different from the traditional word memory in the definition of new words. It does not regard a word whose beginning, middle or end is unknown as a new word. Loneliness is like loneliness; Clone just adds a letter "c" at the beginning of the word, but it is not a new word at all. Another example: sturgeon sturgeon surgeon;

Furthermore, one of the biggest drawbacks of the traditional memory method is static memory, which adopts intuitive, isolated and simple memory mode, while the logical memory method of sports memory can increase the all-round sports memory mode of vocabulary by adding or changing letters, which will create miracles for any English learner that he can't even believe. Such as: killing the city-laughter; Anti-aircraft guns-flaky flaky crumbling crumbling-shackles-the neck hair of a messy bird shrinks-reducing the liar; Carpet carpet-pet pet-Peter gradually disappeared

Second, synonymous memory method

1. English generalized synonym

Assassination assassination; Bloody slaughter; The butcher massacre; Holocaust; Hecatomb massacre; Killing; Slaughter and slaughter; Kill people to kill them; Killing massacre; Slaughter and slaughter; Suicide. Suicide.

If we don't start from the perspective of English broad synonyms, it will be difficult for us to remember these words with the same or similar meanings together.

2. Chinese generalized synonyms

Give up halfway; Hemisphere; Midnight midnight; Peninsula peninsula; Radius radius; Semiconductor semiconductor

If we don't start from the perspective of Chinese generalized synonyms, it is difficult for us to remember these words with the same or similar meanings together, so there will be misuse and mistranslation in the process of understanding and using.

Thirdly, anti-sense memory method.

1. Antisense corresponding memory

It is a traditional antonym memorization method to put a group of words with opposite or relative meanings together. This method is helpful for us to understand and remember vocabulary.

Soft-hard; Blasphemy.-pious piety

2. Additional antisense memory

The so-called affix memory means that we strengthen the memory of antonyms by adding prefixes or suffixes to a specific vocabulary. If you add the prefix un-, it means "no": sophisticated and sophisticated; Innocent; Add suffixes with opposite meanings -ful and-less: harm; Harmful; harmless

3. Structural memory

The so-called structural memory means that we use the homonym structure or homonym structure of one or several specific words to strengthen the memory of antonyms.

The structure of the front part is the same, all of them are centr, and I is the connecting letter: centre center is centrifugal; Centripetal; The following structures are the same, they are anthropic, the prefix mis- means "no" and the prefix phil- means "like". Human; Cynical; cynical. Charity is charity.

4. Multi-angle memory The so-called multi-angle memory means that we use some different meanings of a specific vocabulary and antonyms composed of different vocabulary to strengthen the memory of antonyms. Forever-gone; Permanent fixation-changeable impermanence; Permanent, permanent-temporary, temporary.

Fourth, the card memory method

Card memory method is the oldest, most commonly used and simplest method, which is to write the new words to be remembered on small cards, and then recite them after class, such as taking them out during recess, on the way to school, before going to bed, by car and waiting for people. Sometimes you can associate Chinese words with English words on the card. Some words are difficult to remember, so you can pick them out and recite them repeatedly to enhance your memory.

Five, conversation memory method

It is very important to remember English words. Talk with foreigners, teachers and classmates to increase the chances of getting in touch with this word. At the same time, you can review the old and learn new things and use the words flexibly.

Six, "five senses" memory method

To learn English, we should make full use of human organs, which are actually what we usually call "heart, eyes, mouth, ears and hands". It means seeing with your eyes, listening with your ears, thinking with your heart, speaking with your mouth and writing by hand. If you can remember and read every word accurately, learning English words will get twice the result with half the effort.

Seven, reading memory method

Reading memory method is actually memorizing English words by reading a lot of English articles, which is also helpful to consolidate the words learned in class. Sometimes in order to explain a thing, a word will be used repeatedly, and repetition is the most important memory method. If we recite words one by one, the effect is always poor. If you memorize words in the form of sentences or articles, the memory effect will be good. Learning English words is a very interesting thing. Only when you have confidence and explore actively will you find its charm. There are many ways to remember English words. Constantly summing up, the most important thing is persistence, dripping water wears away the stone, and long-term accumulation will have unexpected gains. Finally, with a mnemonic method, I * * * encourage the students who took the postgraduate entrance examination.

1. Remember the word, "five essentials", eyes, mouth, hands and brain are on fire together; Read more, write more, recite more times and remember clearly.

2. Don't forget the words and read them in a few days; I seem to have forgotten it, reviewed it, and imprinted it in my heart over and over again.

3. Don't be upset if there are too many words, and capture them in groups; First, eat in groups of five, and several groups will be connected into a big piece.

4. Combining phrases and sentences is meaningful and meaningful; Key paragraphs must be memorized, which is profound and interesting to understand.

5. If you want to write the words correctly, you have to pass the pronunciation test; If you master the rules of pronunciation, you will naturally make fewer spelling mistakes.

6. Classification and induction are easy to remember, and similar words are put together; Bikes, planes and jeeps, get back in the car.

7. Synonyms and antonyms, differentiate and contrast, remember, compare and contrast, begin to understand, and remember deeply.

8. Words are easy to forget when they are long. Cards and notes help. Math is not easy to remember, so post a math note.

9. Word formation, to learn, prefixes and suffixes are regular; Conversion often changes the part of speech, while synthesis is two in one.

10. Reading after class is interesting and words are easy to remember; As long as you insist on reading often, you can get more than one job.

"Rome wasn't built in a day", English learning should be accumulated. For the most basic words, in the process of postgraduate entrance examination, we should strengthen our memory, summarize and summarize, and pay more attention to learning at ordinary times. Everyone has his own method of memorizing words and his own method. The above methods can be combined to choose the one that suits him best. I hope I can wish you by going up one flight of stairs in memorizing English words!
