暑假到了,吃喝玩乐固然是大多数孩子追求的目标,但是别忘了在这不长不短的假期里也给自己的英语充充电。给大家三个学英文的建议,在寓教于乐的过程中也度过一个有意义的假期。
A 计划:一本英文小说
假期中坚持看完一本英文小说。当然一定要根据自己的水平挑选合适的书刊。比如基础稍差的同学就去书店挑选一本自己感兴趣的有中文对照版本的英文小说,而英文好的同学则直接选择原版小说(自己抽一天时间去逛逛外文书店吧,去挑选一本自己真正感兴趣的书来读)。
英语阅读材料中,最简单的是专业文章,其次是资讯,最难的是小说。我大学花了半年多时间就可以毫不费力地读懂纽约时报,但是直到大学毕业2年才能勉强读完Da Vinci Code(达·芬奇密码)。但是真的读完一本几百页的小说,带来的成就感是读几篇文章难以比拟的。
这里给大家的建议是,在读的过程中一定要有摘抄的习惯。把自己认为用的好的词,短语,甚至句子认真摘抄在笔记本上。并且要经常拿出来复习。这一点上海英语新概念部的祝晓光老师做得非常完美,他不仅每天坚持看原版书,摘抄,而且还定期把自己的阅读笔记发布在自己的围脖上,欢迎围观http://weibo.com/markgrissom 。
关于摘抄,以前我写过相关的文章。比如我用一个礼拜时间读完了Sophie Kinsella的购物狂系列书。读的过程中摘抄了大量的美词美句,这对我的写作有非常大的提高。详见http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_4c28b9ce0100h3ik.html
另外 “sex and the city一书中也有大量的美句,都值得摘抄,比如 :
1 Women are incredibly smart, they travel, they pay taxes, they'll spend 400 bucks on a pair of Manolo Blahnik strappy sandals
2 I left feeling powerful, potent and incredibly alive- nothing and no one could get in my way
3 Women fall into one of two categories-beautiful and boring, or homely and interesting.
4 tend to have the kind of deluded self-confidence that caused men like Ross Perot to run for president; tend to live an empty, haunted life of stunted adolescence; tend to always order two eggs Benedict and one spinach omelet.
5 What's the feeling of wearing patchouli in a room full of chanel?
6 Being beautiful is like having a rent-controlled apartment overlooking the park, completely unfair and bestowed upon those who deserve it least. But, but beauty is fleeting, while the rent-controlled apartment overlooking the park is forever
7 There are so many damn gorgeous men out there in this city, but after a while, you just want to be with the one who makes you laugh.
8 He was like the flesh and blood equivalent of a DKNY dress
9 They started out casual, a brunch here, a movie there. They decided to pick a time to bump into each other on purpose. He had his big three-looks, manners and
10 Men in their 40's are like the New York Times crossword puzzle, tricky, complicated, and you are never sure you've got the right answer. Just like the new designed drug. when they lay like that, they have the cutest little wrinkles on their neck. Almost uncomfortably handsome
11 I decided the way to break free was to move from one addiction to an even bigger one-shoes. I walked 50 blocks in 200 dollars shoes. I am so broke, i have this little substance abust problem-expensive footwear
12 Where is the line between professional girlfriend and just plain professional?
(关于这些句子我没有给出翻译,因为英文中很多好句只能意会,不能言传,大家读书读得多了,自然会理解其中的奥秘之处,以后自己写文章的时候就能用得如鱼得水。)
所以,大家在坚持读完一本小说的过程中一定不能忘记摘抄。
