在SAT考试备考过程中,最庞大的一项任务就是单词记忆,单词是考试的基础,所以大家一定要重视,下面给大家分享如何一步一步攻克SAT词汇。
1. Write down (on paper) every word that you find that you want to memorize (each "batch" should be about 50-80 depending on how well you can memorize.)
在纸上把你想要记忆的单词写下来。(每次的记忆量在50-80之间,视自己情况而定)
2. Using dictionary.com or an electronic dictionary define each one in as few words as possible. Say the word as you're defining it
尽量少背诵电子词典或者网络词典的示意,尝试用自己的语言解释一个单词
3. Leave it alone for a day or so. Without any conscious effort to memorize them, at least 3-5 from your "batch" will naturally stick, and 10-20 will be "tip of your tongue" memorized
不要刻意去记忆这些词。3-5遍的重复就会自然记住,而10-20遍就会成为你常挂在嘴边的词汇啦。
4. Open up two Word documents. Make a numbered list, one in each document, and type up the definitions. They should be SMALL! A word like "Sycophant" may need more than a synonymic one-word definition, but generally, they should be between 1 and 3 words. MAKE SURE TO INCLUDE SECONDARY AND TERTIARY MEANINGS.
做一个词汇表,一列是你想记忆的单词,另一列是他的同义词。比如 sycophant 马屁精 也许需要几个单词来解释,但通常是需要1-3个词。要注意把他们的多重含义也记忆下来。
5. Print the two lists out, and let them sit for a day or so. Again, just writing them down and saying them to yourself will help a lot.
把这个词汇表打印出来,几天不要去看,然后在重新把他们写下来并说出意思。
6. Now, you're ready. Keep both lists visible, and just go reading them off. Focus on them. Use both parts of your brain. Don't just remember what the word means, remember how it's definition looks.
现在,当你准备好了词汇表,就一直不断地翻看。两列都需要记忆,不要只注重他的解释。
7. After reading the list over x numbers of times (usually twice for me), read it once over again, but this time, covering up the definitions. You learn a lot when you're quizzing yourself. (If you're getting more than every 10th word wrong, you're not reading them over enough.)
这样坚持n遍之后(对我来说是2遍),继续看词汇表,但是这一次要把解释都盖住。在你自我检测的时候你会加深印象。(如果一个单词你回忆错超过10次,你就要反复去读)
8. For every word you don't know, make up something by which to remember it. It can be ridiculous and make no sense whatsoever, but little riddles you make for yourself stick.
For example: Beguiled. It sounds kind of weird. . . . "Be-Gweeeel?" (Hell, that may not even be how it's pronounced, but who cares?) Kind of like it's MISLEADING you, DIVERTING your attention from the matter at hand.
Another example: Cerulean. What are those crabs called? Crustaceans? Kind of sounds like cerulean. And crabs live in the? Ocean! And the ocean is? BLUE!
对于那些你记不住的单词,编一些故事去记忆。一些小谜语会加深你的记忆。比如 beguiled。它听起来比较奇怪Be-Gweeeel? (我去,他也许不是这么发音,但谁在乎呢) 这样的方法也许会误导你,让你从手边的事情上分心。
另一个例子 cerulean 这些螃蟹叫什么呢? Crustaceans(甲壳类)?有点像cerulean吧。然后这些螃蟹住在哪里呢?ocean(海洋)中!海洋是?蓝色的(blue)!
9. After 20 minutes of memorizing you will go to bed knowing EVERY word on that list. But it's not over yet! Tomorrow you'll forget most of them. (Some of them at least) The next day, read them over once more, and quiz yourself once more. If there are still some you don't know after that quiz, be sure to revisit them and/or make up a riddle for them.
睡前20分钟记住这些单词的意思,但还没完!明天你一定会忘掉大部分(最少一部分)第二天,多读他们几次,然后重复测试。如果在最后的测验中你还是有不知道的,一定要不断反复,并为他编点谜语故事之类的。
以上就是如何一步一步攻克SAT词汇 ,想要取得满分的同学一定要多加努力哦,词汇是日积月累的,不能急于一时,大家加油吧。
