实用!知乎年度最高赞文章:如何在30天内提高英语

实用!知乎年度最高赞文章:如何在30天内提高英语在前两天刷知乎的时候发现,年度最高赞的文章,是一篇介绍英语听力经验的文章,答主是北大英语专业研究生栗之,获得了23万个赞同。

不少人都说,在英语考试中,听力是自己的最弱项,但听力很可能是最容易在短时间内提高的科目。

而栗之的文章不仅介绍了方法,更是列出了一个可行的听力训练时间表。

评论区里不少人表示,这套方法确实有效,有网友表示四六级的同学听力增长了几十分。

知道你们的英语考试多,双语君就请来这位达人给大家分享她的方法。以下是栗之的自述:

原则:舒服的训练都没用

很多学长学姐在传授听力经验的时候,时常会说:

每天坚持听英语,早晨起床就把自己浸入到英语环境中,听新概念、VOA、BBC,刚开始完全听不懂,只能听懂几个单词,但我没有放弃,后来突然有

一天,自己就跟开窍了一样,全部听懂了!

年少的我听完这个方法那叫一个热血沸腾,每天早晨让我妈在复读机中塞上一盘磁带,用英语唤我起床。每天晚上吃饭都要听上将近一个小时的英语。

但听了一段时间后,我发现,自己的英语水平,尤其是听力并没有什么长进。听不出来的单词下次重新播放还是听不出来,每天我都像在听一篇新的课文。说好的“豁然开朗”和“其义自见”呢?

问题出在哪儿呢?

这样普通的练习方式叫做“机械重复练习”,就像题海战术一样,营造的这些学习环境,只是感动了自己,其实自己并没有真正利用这些时间去学习,去思考,所以并没有什么成效。

我们应该做的却是“刻意练习”,先掌握正确的学习方法,然后进行大量的“受苦型训练”。

学习是可以有趣的,但前提是自己找到合适的学习方法,并且取得了成效后,你才会心理上放松,真正接纳它。而在此之前,你必须“受虐”,在精神上接受学习的吊打。

基本策略:精听99% +泛听1%

为什么我们要精听?

你见过“爻”无数次,这个字是我们用了几十万次的“反驳”中的右半边。那你知道这个字的读音吗?知道它的意思吗?

你看过无数遍《生活大爆炸》,你知道moxie 的中文是什么吗?

不要说什么一万小时就能成为这个领域的达人,只有经历一万个努力到痛不欲生的小时才有可能成为专家。

否则,这么多年,你看过的美剧、欧美电影应该早就超过了一万小时,为什么还是学不会英语呢?

没有效率的方法不能称之为好方法。

我今天介绍的这个方法的好处是:花一份时间,带来听力、口语、阅读、词汇、写作的五重提高。

精听方法和训练步骤

我提倡的方法叫做Shadowing Practice,这个方法被翻译成影子跟读法,这个译名只概括了方法的一半,甚至不到一半。

更准确的译名应为“跟读复析法”,即英文跟读+提取信息和复述、分析句意。这是很多口译员练习听力和口语的方法。

靠Shadowing 的方法,我的听力弱项迅速提高,专四拿到了全班唯一一个优秀。

Shadowing 第一个核心是原文跟读。简单来说,跟读就是在原文结束后,把刚才听到的原文诵读出来。在训练初期,可以进行英文到中文的翻译转换。到训练中期、后期,尽快扭转自己的思路,hello 就是hello,不要画蛇添足翻译成“你好”,逐渐形成英语理解思维。

接下来,我用视频给大家演示。

1训练初期(7 天,每天2-3h)

我们以2016 年6 月的六级真题(第一套)来示范下,如何有效精听。

? Step 1 听原文第一句

一定要盲听!千万不要看原文!

▌原文无障碍

?直接跟读出原句,并在语音、语调上尽量模仿录音

So, how long have you been a Market Research Consultant?

?立马在脑中分解句子意思,并复述出中文句意

那么,你做市场研究顾问已经多久了呢?

?接着按这个步骤训练下一句

▌原文有障碍

如:最后一个单词Consultant 没听出来

?在纸上把前面听出来的两个单词写出,在未听出的单词处划线,下次重点听划线处Market Research ______

?在脑中把除了这个单词外的其他部分的意思分析、复述出来

? Step 2 听第二遍原文

?重复Step 1

?如果还没听出来,就继续听第三遍,直到第五遍为止

? Step 3 听完五遍

如果听完第五遍还没有听出来就暂且作罢,开始听第二句,并重复以上步骤。

等听完本篇听力全文后,再翻看原文。

注意:

听不完文章,不允许看原文;

看原文时把听不出的词查出来,标出音标+中文意思。英文释义也尝试了解下。

2训练中期(7 天,每天2-3h)

? Step 1

同初期Step 1,跟读;复述时,不再翻译成中文,在脑中理解句意即可

? Step 2

每个句子最多听三遍

3训练后期(7-10 天,每天2-3h)

? Step 1

同初期Step 1,跟读,但不再翻译成中文,在脑中理解句意即可

? Step 2

每个句子最多听一遍,严格根据四六级的遍数要求

泛听方法和推荐材料

说了精听,是不是应该说泛听了……

讲真,我觉得大家在做完了两三个小时的精听后,十有八九会说自己“听吐”了。

考虑到是泛听,可以选择自己感兴趣的材料作听力,比如,我天天晚上会听《唐顿庄园》入睡,如果你恰好失眠,不妨用这个方法。

只要是眼下想突破考试的,就把99% 甚至100% 的精力留给精听吧,带着脑子去练习,才会有长进。一个月后,你会感谢那个“听吐了”的自己的!

根据大家的词汇量等级不同,我给大家推荐不同的听力材料。

Fall in Love with English 爱上英语 Hiding behind the loose dusty curtain, a teenager packed up his overcoat into the suitcase. He planned to leave home at dusk though there was thunder and lightning outdoors. He had got to do this because he was tired of his parents’ nagging about his English study and did not want to go through it any longer. He couldn’t get along well with English and disliked joining in English classes because he thought his teacher ignored him on purpose. As a result, his score in each exam never added up to over 60. His partner was concerned about him very much. She understood exactly what he was suffering from, but entirely disagreed with his idea. In order to calm him down and settle his problem, she talked with him face to face and swapped a series of learning tips with him. The items she set down helped him find the highway to studying English well. The teenager was grateful and got great power from his friend’s words. Now, he has recovered from being upset and has fallen in love with English. 2 Different Countries Have Different Kinds of Englishes 不同的国家有不同的英语 Voyages of people from England play an important part in spreading the English language. At present, English is frequently spoken as an official or common language in many countries, such as America, Singapore, Malaysia and some African countries. All based on British English, the English spoken in these countries can be well understood by native English speakers. But actually, these Englishes have been gradually changing in accents, spellings, expressions and the usage of vocabulary. Because of this fact, you can make use of the differences to tell which country the foreigners of your block are from. For example, if a boss fluently commands his driver, “Come up straight to my apartment by elevator and take some gas for my trucks and cabs”, instead of requesting, “Please come to my flat by lift and take some petrol for my lorries and taxis”, you can recognize his American identity, while the latter suggests that he is British .3.A Hard Trip一次辛苦的旅行 My sister was fond of traveling. Ever since graduating, she had been determined to organize a trip to an old temple. Since transporting fare was expensive, she decided to use a bicycle to cycle there not caring about the disadvantages. Her stubborn attitude was always her shortcoming. Once she made up her mind to do something, no one could persuade her to change her mind. Finally, we gave in as usual though we preferred to take a train. After we prepared everything, including the schedule, reliable weather forecast and

The Scar I always felt ugly. Then I learned that beauty and perfection are two very different things. By Joanna Slan His thumb softly rubbed the twisted flesh on my cheek. The plastic surgeon, a good fifteen years my senior, was a very attractive man. His masculinity and the intensity of his gaze seemed almost overpowering. “Hmmm,” he said quietly. “Are you a model?” Is this a joke? Is he kidding? I asked myself, and I searched his handsome face for signs of mockery. No way would anyone ever confuse me with a fashion model. I was ugly. My mother casually referred to my sister as her pretty child. Anyone could see I was homely. After all, I had the scar to prove it. The accident happened in fourth grade, when a neighbor boy picked up a hunk of concrete and heaved the mass through the side of my face. An emergency room doctor stitched together the shreds of skin, pulling cat-gut through the tattered outside of my face and then suturing the shards flesh inside my mouth. For the rest of the year, a huge bandage from cheekbone to jaw covered the raised angry welt. A few weeks after the accident, an eye exam revealed I was nearsighted. Above the ungainly bandage sat a big, thick pair of glasses. Around my head, a short fuzzy glob of curls stood out like mold growing on old bread. To save money, mom had taken me to a beauty school where a student cut my hair. The overzealous girl hacked away cheerfully. Globs of hair piled up on the floor. By the time her instructor wandered over, the damage was done. A quick conference followed, and we were given a coupon for a free styling on our next visit. “Well,” sighed my father that evening, “you’ll always be pretty to me,” and he hesitated, “even if you aren’t to the rest of the world.” Right. Thanks. As i f I couldn’t hear the taunts of the other kids at school. As if I couldn’t see how different I looked from the little girls whom the teachers fawned over. As if I didn’t occasionally catch a glimpse of myself in the bathroom mirror. In a culture that values beauty, an ugly girl is an outcast. My looks caused me no end of pain. I sat in my room and sobbed every time my family watched a beauty pageant or a “talent” search show. Eventually, I decided that if I couldn’t be pretty, I would at least be well-groomed. Over the course of years, I learned to style my hair, wear contact lenses and apply make-up. Watching what worked for other women, I learned to dress myself to best advantage. And now, I was engaged to be married. The scar, shrunken and faded with

经典英语美文三十篇

第一篇:Youth 青春 Youth Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life. Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust. Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailin g appetite for what’s next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart, there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, courage and power from man and from the infinite, so long as you are young. When your aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you’ve grown old, even at 20; but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there’s hope you may die young at 80. 第二篇:Three Days to See(Excerpts)假如给我三天光明(节选) Three Days to See All of us have read thrilling stories in which the hero had only a limited and specified time to live. Sometimes it was as long as a year, sometimes as short as 24 hours. But always we were interested in discovering just how the doomed hero chose to spend his last days or his last hours. I speak, of course, of free men who have a choice, not condemned criminals whose sphere of activities is strictly delimited. Such stories set us thinking, wondering what we should do under similar circumstances. What events, what experiences, what associations should we crowd into those last hours as mortal beings, what regrets? Sometimes I have thought it would be an excellent rule to live each day as if we should die tomorrow. Such an attitude would emphasize sharply the values of life. We should live each day with gentleness, vigor and a keenness of appreciation which are often lost when time stretches before us in the constant panorama of more days and months and years to come. There are those, of course, who would adopt the Epicurean motto of “Eat, drink, and be merry”. But most people would be chastened by the certainty of impending death. In stories the doomed hero is usually saved at the last minute by some stroke of fortune, but almost
