●Twenty Minutes’ Reading on P18-21 ●Translate the following passage into Chinese Trading error dims Everbright's prospects The record 523 million yuan ($85 million) fine may seem big, but Everbright Securities Co's troubles are far from over. The company is facing claims estimated at 2.7 billion yuan by investors alleged to have been misled by the company's deliberate withholding of information about its 7.2 billion yuan trading mistake. But lawyers said potential claimants may need more information from the China Securities Regulatory Commission investigation to pin Everbright down. According to the Securities Law of China, the principal should shoulder responsibility if insider trading incurs any losses. But Liu Mingjun, director of the capital market department of Beijing Celue Law Firm, told Xinhua News Agency that there is a lack of detailed interpretation and regulations in the Securities Law. In the United States, investors who can prove they suffered a loss as a result of insider trading would bring a civil claim against the broker responsible for it, said Gene Buttrill, capital markets practice partner at the global law firm Jones Day. So far, the commission has only handed down the penalty with a note saying that investors who felt cheated can seek redress through litigation. It has not disclosed details of its investigation that showed how Everbright stonewalled the stock exchange on Aug 16, allowing itself time to engage in insider trading to cover its potential losses. Following Everbright's former president Xu Haoming's resignation on Aug 22, Yang Chizhong, assistant executive, and Mei Jian, secretary of the board of directors, resigned on Saturday. Xu and Yang, together with Shen Shiguang, general manager of the accounting department, and Yang Jianbo, general manager of the strategic department, were fined by the commission and banned from any work involving the stock exchange. Buttrill of Jones Day said insider trading cases in the US carry both criminal and civil penalties. "For serious cases, jail sentences are often appropriate," he added. The share price of Everbright Securities plummeted 8.54 percent to close at 9.21 yuan on Monday, while the benchmark Shanghai Composite Index

大学英语词汇教学浅析

Vol.10No.1 2013年1月 第10卷第1期 Journal of Hubei University of Economics(Humanities and Social Sciences) 湖北经济学院学报(人文社会科学版) Jan.2013一、词汇教学的重要地位 词汇是语言的三大要素之一,是语言的建筑基石。正如英国语言学家威尔金丝所言:“没有语法,人们表达的事物寥寥无几,而没有词汇,则无法表达任何事物。”可见,词汇在语言中占有重要位置。对于语言学习者、使用者来说,词汇知识是他们语言能力的一部分,在一定程度上,学生词汇量的多少能反映其英语水平,并决定其听、说、读、写诸方面的能力。 现代大学英语教学是以培养交际能力为目的,掌握大量词汇是培养交际能力的先决条件,否则语言交际就不能顺利进行。另外,英语学习的侧重点也从测试语法点转化为分析语篇,这就要求学生接受大量的语言信息,而语言信息来源于词汇,因此,学生掌握大量词汇才可以有效地进行交际和阅读。可见,在英语教学中,词汇教学占有重要地位。 二、词汇教学存在的问题 在多年的精读教学中,笔者发现学生在掌握词汇方面是薄弱的,他们不能理解句子的意思往往不是因为不懂语法,而是不理解单词的意义。通过了解学生记忆单词和教师讲解单词的方法,笔者发现词汇的教与学存在着以下一些问题: (一)教师在教学中重视语法教学,忽视词汇教学。传统的语法翻译教学法在中学英语教学中占主导地位,在一定程度上也影响了大学英语教学。 (二)教师讲课过多地重视课文主要意思和结构,忽视了讲单词,许多教师认为学生在中学已经学会了语音,会读单词,不应该花费课堂时间讲词汇,而应该集中讲课文。事实上,学生们虽然认识到词汇的重要性,但努力记单词并没有取得良好效果,学生感到很困惑。 (三)教师用字典解释单词,然而学生可能不理解新单词在不同语境中的真正含义。大部分学生依赖于字典学习词汇,而不能适当地、确切地运用单词。一个单词有多种意义,学生们不能确定在某个句子中的单词的确切意义。 (四)许多教师用近义词讲新单词,然而不区分近义词的差异。 (五)学生还有一系列其他问题,一词多义是学生学习的障碍,词语搭配对学生来说是很复杂的事情,词汇的内涵意义也不容易掌握。 因此教师应重视词汇教学,用好的方法教学生,尤其是精读课上,教师应把词汇与课文内容联系起来讲,这样学单词就不枯燥无味,在其他课上也要有意识地讲解新词,同时复习旧词,有效地提高记忆效率。我们作为教师,过去没有充分重视词汇教学,认为只要教会学生读单词,理解基本意思,学生自己背,老师再听写,这样就完成了词汇教学。事实上,教师应该用有效的方法教词汇,扩大学生的词汇量,深化词汇知识的深度。语言学家Laufer 曾说过,扩展词汇不仅是一个量的问题,词汇知识可能在不同的学习阶段从表层发展至深层,扩展词汇也不仅是熟悉新单词,它还包括加深已学过单词的知识,词汇的深度和词汇量是同等重要的。 三、词汇教学的策略和方法 为了使学生有效地、科学地学习记忆词汇,笔者提出以下几种方法,帮助学生提高记忆效率。 (一)语音教学 语音与词汇有密切的关系,学好语音对词汇有很大帮助。教师在讲新词时,首先应从读音开始,让学生掌握一定的读音规则,把握好重音、弱读等规律,严格要求学生养成准确发音的习惯。然后是单词拼写,引导学生掌握字母以及字母组合的发音规律。在记忆过程中,要让学生掌握英语单词中读音和拼写之间的对应关系,使学生把音和形联系起来,看词能读,听音会写。如:有一个发音组合:元音+辅音+不发音的e ,在这个组合中,字母e 不发音,元音字母通常发本身音。如果学生了解了这个规则,那么看到take ,use ,bike 等这种组合的词就会准确地读出来,听到时也会准确地拼写了。总之,学生掌握了读音规则,单词读准了,拼写的准确率也会随之提高,记忆单词会变得相对轻松。 (二)构词教学 语言是随着人类社会的发展而产生并发展的,许多新词的产生遵循语法规则,有一定的规律,也就是我们所说的构词法。学习英语单词的构词法,有助于提高记忆效率。常见的构词法主要有派生法、合成法、转化法。 派生法即在词根上加前缀或后缀构成新词,了解前缀、词根、后缀的意思,就可以记住几个词,如:由character 联想到 characterize ,characteristic ,characterization 。 大学英语词汇教学浅析 胡凌海 (忻州师范学院专科部,山西忻州034000) 摘 要:词汇是语言的建筑基石,在语言中占有重要位置。学生掌握大量的词汇,阅读和交际才能有效地顺利地 进行。因此词汇教学成为大学英语教学中的一个非常重要的部分,本文分析了词汇教学存在的问题并提出了一些词汇教学的策略和方法。 关键词:大学英语;词汇教学;策略;方法

大学英语词汇教学策略探究.doc

大学英语词汇教学策略探究 关键词:词汇教学策略输入内化输出 摘要:本文作者根据认知心理学的相关理论探讨了如何在潜移默化中帮助学生更快、更好、更全面的掌握词汇。从词汇的输入、内化、输出三个环节入手制定出一套切实可行的词汇教学方案。 任何一种语言的学习都离不开字、词汇的学习与掌握,英语的学习亦是如此。英语词汇教学是英语教学的重要组成部分,词汇掌握得多少,直接影响学生外语能力的发展和运用。所以利用认知心理学的相关理论,科学地进行词汇教学,提高学生的单词记忆能力,防止遗忘,是英语教学中一项十分重要的任务。 根据认知心理学信息加工理论,词汇的学习可以分为输入,内化和输出三个环节。 (一)词汇输入

词汇的输入包括音、形、两方面。读音方面:教师应提供大量听音、模仿和实践的机会,帮助学生读准音。可使用以下方法:1、听录音跟读;2、老师示范领读;3、听课文注意语音语调。拼写方面:通过掌握单词的拼读规则和发音规则,增强学生对单词的记忆能力。在此环节,注重字母、字母组合在单词中的发音,并注重发音规律的渗透。有意识地培养学生见词就能拼读,听音就能拼写的能力。使学生们逐渐具有语言感知的能力。 (二)词汇内化 在英语词汇教学方面,众多专家一致认为词不离组,组不离句,句不离段。这充分体现了语境在记忆单词方面的作用。否则,记忆只能是浅层记忆不够深入。没有语境即使记忆了很多单词也不能够学以致用。因此,应该从以下两方面入手对所学词汇进行内化。 (1)在语境中记忆单词。词汇学习不是孤立的,从读音、拼写记忆词汇只能使学生通过读音记住、拼出单词,但单词的实际意义还得放入情境交流中,才能显示出生命力和交际功能。才能培养学生实际语言运用能力。许多语言学家的研究表明:第一语言学习者的词汇知识多数来自大量的阅读,可见,在语境中学

浅谈大学英语词汇教学(一)

浅谈大学英语词汇教学(一) 论文关键词:英语教学词汇教学语境 论文摘要:我国的英语词汇教学在很多情况下忽视了词汇存在的特定的语言环境,往往是孤立地教词,以致造成学生的词汇学习因缺乏语言的文化背景而思维简单。许多学生学习英语,“记住”了一定量的词汇,却难以得体地运用英语去表情达意进行交际。如何有效地进行词汇教学研究是目前英语教学领域中一个十分值得重视的问题。 Abstract:Englishvocabularyteachinginourcountryisbarelyrelatedwiththeculturalbackgroundsofthe vocabulary,withtheignoranceofthecontextandthedevelopmentofthem,therefore,itresultsinstuden tsexpressingthemselveswithdifficultyonsomeoccasions.ItistheissuethathowEnglishvocabularyteac hingeffectivelyisreinforcedatpresent. Keyword:Englishteaching;vocabularyteaching;context 1.引言 学生语言技能与交际能力的提高,是当今英语教学中一个亟待解决的问题,而提高学生语言技能与交际能力的基础在于准确理解词汇的意义,如何有效地进行词汇教学研究是目前英语教学领域中一个十分值得重视的问题。 语言运用中的负载信息主体是词汇,而词汇往往是英语学习的难点,因此,学好英语首先要克服生词障碍,准确理解词汇意义,提高语言应用能力。然而,在英语教学中,教师深深感到,由于学生的词汇量少,难以进行英语交流,阅读时困难重重,严重阻碍了学生英语应用能力的提高。对英语词汇教学方法的探索,总结出一套行之有效的英语词汇教学方法,并实施于英语教学中,必将会收到良好效果。 2.在语境中,理解词汇关联意义 在英语词汇教学中,教师只注重词的字面意义,即理性意义,而忽视了附加在词汇后面的内涵、情感的和牵涉许多联想的意义,直接影响语言应用能力的提高。教师应该既注重词汇的理性意义,又要引导学生注重词汇的关联意义。词汇意义大致可分为理性意义和关联意义,其中掌握词汇的关联意义是准确理解词义的关键所在。一个词除了其直接的、表面的、字典上的意义,还有其内涵的、情感的、牵涉许多关联的意义,这就是词汇的关联意义。关联意义是一种开放的、无限定的意义。词汇的关联意义分为四种类别:内涵意义(connotativemeaning),语体意义(stylisticmeaning),感情意义(affectivemeaning)和搭配意义(collocativemeaning)。 2.1内涵意义是指通过语言所指示是传递的意义(Leech,1987:33),由理性意义(概念意义)引起的附带性的意义或关联。它比词汇理性意义(概念意义)更为复杂,它不是意义的基本成分,而是语言使用者的内心所产生的各种联想。内涵意义具有不稳定性,它随着文化、历史和个人的经历不同而变化。如,family一词在中国孩子和西方孩子心中唤起的感情可能很不一样。内涵意义不仅随着时代和社会的不同而变化,而且即使在同一社团中,也会随个体的不同而不同。如:Cross对不信仰基督教的东方人来说,不过是个“十字形的东西”;对西方基督教徒来说就是耶稣受难、为人类赎罪的象征;对于生活在美国的黑人来说,在心中引起的联想就更加强烈、复杂了。 2.2词汇的语体意义是指由于交际方式、交际场合、交际对象、交际内容等方面的因素,所需要的词语在其长期使用过程中形成了特定的文体风格色彩。语体意义分为正式文体和非正式文体,如:TheconcertconcludedwithaperformanceofBeethoven’s5thsymphony; TheyendedtheconcertwithBeethoven’s5thsymphony.Conclude源于拉丁语,常见正式文体;而end是古英语词汇成分,多用于非正式文体。由于历史的原因,源于法语、拉丁语、希腊语的词汇多见于正式文体中。 2.3情感意义是关于讲话人或写文章那个的人对所谈事物或人的感情或态度的意义
