英语学习方法总论 　　方法就是方法,它最终无法取代刻苦的学习. 　　第1部分 整体建议 　　1. We'd better develop our interest in English at the beginning of our study. To develop interest in English study is not very hard. We may have the feeling of satisfaction and achievement from our English study when we are able to say something simple in English, talk with others or foreigners in English and act as others' interpreters. 　　在英语学习之初,我们应该注重培养对英语学习的兴趣.培养对英语的兴趣并不难.当我们可以说点儿简单的英语,用英语与别人或与老外交谈,或作别人的翻译时,我们就可以从英语学习中得到满足感和成就感,这样,兴趣就培养起来了.请注意,这种满足感和成就感很重要! 　　2. Plans are always very essential, so we must make some elaborate and workable plans before study. And we should certainly carry out these plans to the letter. 　　制定英语学习计划太重要了,所以我们必须在学习前制定精细的和可操作的计划. 并且我们一定要严格执行这些计划.请注意:千万不要干没有计划的傻事,那等于在浪费生命. 　　3. Notes should be made whenever we study any book. We may follow this advice: Don't read book without making notes. As we know that notes are the summarization, the core content, our understanding and the abbreviations of the books. Our notes are much thinner than the books so that we can learn them by heart easier and can often review and read them. We may also record our notes on tapes so as to often listen to them easier, to deepen our impression and to lighten our burden of memory. Sometimes it is needful to draw some tables and illustrations that are very impressive, visual and concise. 　　无论学习什么,我们都要作笔记.我们可以参照下面的忠告:不作笔记就不要读书.如您所知,笔记是我们对所学课本的总结,中心内容,我们的理解和课本的缩略.笔记要比课本薄的多,我们可以较容易的记忆和经常复习他们.更胜一畴的做法是把笔记录成音,这样我们可以经常听一听来加深印象和减轻记忆负担. 　　4. Watching English movies, English TV programs, listening to English songs and learn English on some special occasions are also excellent and vivid English learning ways as we may combine English with some certain scenes to deepen our memory. 　　看英文电影,收看英语电视节目,听英文歌曲和在某些特定场景学习英语也是很棒和很生动的英语学习方式,因为这样我们可以把所学英语与某些特定的场景联系起来以加深记忆. 　　5. Never just memorize single English words. Learn by heart the whole sentences and the phrases that contain the new words so we may know how to use the words. 　　请不要孤立地背英语单词.请背记包含生词的句子或词组,这样我们才真正能运用这些词汇,而且印象更深. 　　6. If time permits, we may read Mini Chinese-English dictionary carefully from cover to cover, which may help us widen our sight and master knowledge in all aspects. 　　如果时间允许,通读小小汉英字典对于英语学习也帮助很大.他能帮助我们扩大视野并全方位地掌握所学知识. 　　7. Excellent personality is one of the decisive factors in English study. Persistence, patience, self-confidence and determination are badly needed. 　　优秀的性格也是英语学习的关键因素之一,坚持,忍耐,自信和坚定都是很重要的.当然如果兴趣培养得好, 可适当削弱这方面的要求.

　　　 Part 2 Detailed methods(第2部分 具体方法) 　　1. Oral English:(口语学习) 　 A. We study spoken English so as to make oral communications, so this order of importance of oral English study should be followed: Fluency, Accuracy, and Appropriateness. That is to say, we have to pay more attention to practical communicating ability instead of only laying emphasis on the grammatical correctness. 　　我们学习口语目的是为了与别人进行交流,所以英语口语中的几个要素的重要次序应为:流利-准确-恰当. 　　　B. Try to find some partners practicing oral English together and English corner is a good place as where we may exchange English study experience, widen our sight and improve interest in English. 　　努力寻找学伴一起练习口语.英语角是个不错的地方,在那我们不但可以练习口语,还可以交流英语学习经验,开拓视野,提高英语学习兴趣. 　　C. If English partners are not easy to get, then we have to create an English environment ourselves by speaking English to ourselves. 　　如果找不到学伴或参加英语角的机会很少,那么就需要通过自己对自己将英语来创造英语环境.比如对自己描述所看到的景物,英语口述自己正在作的事情. 　　D. This method is very effective and easy to insist on--interpreting Chinese-English novels or books. First we read the Chinese parts and then try to interpret them into English and then compare our interpretation with the original versions in the novels or books so that we can find out the mistakes, shortcomings and progresses in our interpretation. 　　这种方法非常有效且很容易坚持---口译汉英对照(或英汉对照)的小说或其它读物.首先我们先读汉语部分,然后逐句直接口译成英文,完成一小段后,去看书上的对应英文部分并与我们的口译进行比较,我们马上可以发现我们口译的错误,缺点和进步. 　　请注意:开始要选择较简单的读物. 　　这样作的好处: 　　1. 自己就可以练习口语,想练多久,就练多久. 　　2. 始终有一位高级教师指出您的不足和错误---英文原文. 　　3. 题材范围极广,可以突破我们自己的思维禁锢,比如我们总是喜欢谈论我们自己熟悉的话题,所以我们总是在练习相同的语言,进步当然就缓慢了. 　　4. 选择小说,幽默故事或好的短文阅读,使我们有足够的兴趣坚持下去. 　　5. 有一些我们在直接学习英语课文时被我们熟视无睹的地道的英语用法会被此法发掘出来. 　　6. 对所学知识和所犯错误印象深刻.这等于我们一直在作汉译英练习,很多英文译文是我们费尽心思憋出来的,所以印象相当深刻.比直接学习英文课文印象要深的多. 　　E. Interpreting what you hear---Changing Roles: Three people make a group: one speaks Chinese, one speaks English acting as the foreigner, one acts as interpreter. Then change roles. This is a good interpreting training method and is good for studying from one another. In addition, it may improve the responding ability and speed of students. The advanced stage of this method is simultaneous interpretation. 　　听译法-角色互换:三人一组,模拟翻译实战.一人将汉语,一人将英语,扮演老外,一人作翻译.练习一段时间后互换角色.这是一种非常好的翻译训练方法,也是很好的相互学习,取长补短的方法.而且可大大提高反应速度和能力.此法的高级阶段为同声传译,我们可以在听广播或看电视或开会时,把所听内容口译英文. 　　F. Oral composition and 3-minute training method: This method is suitable for intense training. Making an oral composition about a certain topic for one minute the first time and record the composition on tape at the same time. Then listen to the composition and find out the room for improvement. Then make the same composition for two minutes for the second time and also record it. And at last repeat the above-mentioned for three minutes. 

　　口语作文和3分钟训练法:此法适用于强化训练.找好一个题目作一分钟的口语作文,同时将其录音.听录音,找出不足和错误,就此题目再作两分钟的的口语作文,同样录音,再听并找出不足与进步,继续作三分钟口语作文.这是高级口语训练,效果不俗. 　　G. Retelling exercise: Retell some articles or English stories in our own words. 　　复述练习:用自己的话口语复述我们所听的英语故事或文章. 　　H. If possible, we may read some English tongue twisters loudly and quickly with one or two cakes of candy in our mouth (just as the Chinese cross-talk actors do.) to train our oral cavity muscle and tongues suitable for English pronunciation. 　　如果可能我们也可以大声且快速朗读英文绕口令(就象相声演员练嘴),还可以同时口中含块糖以加大强化训练的力度.这样来强我们的口腔肌肉迅速适应英文发音,使我们的口语相当流利,清晰,而且还有自信.例如: A big black bug bit the back of a big black bear. The big black bear bit back the big black bug. This fish has a thin fin; That fish has a fat fin; This fish is a fish that has a thinner fin than that fish. IPaying more attention to phrases and small words as one major shortcoming of Chinese English (especially Chinese oral English) is that Chinese students tend to use big words in their oral language, but the idiomatic oral English is abundant with short, active and vivid phrases. And most of such phrases are made of small words. 　　特别注意短语(词组)和小词的运用,中国式的英语尤其是口语一个很大的缺点就是中国学生喜欢用大词,而真正地道的英语口语确是充满着短小,活泼,生动的短语,富有生气.而这些短语大部分有小词构成. 　　J. Oral English has its own features, but it is closely combined with other aspects of English, for example, writing may make oral English precise and accurate. 口语随自有特色,但与英语的其它方面紧密相连.比如,经常练习写作,可是口语精密,准确. 2. Listening comprehension:(听力) A. We may improve our aural ability by speaking English in the native and idiomatic way. The pronunciation, intonation and sentence structure should not be in Chinese style. 可以通过讲地道的口语来提高听力.发音,语调和句子结构请不要中国化.既然能说出来,当然能听懂.当然这样作有点难. B. Keeping a relaxed, natural and steady mood when listening to some materials. Namely, to establish self-confidence and to develop excellent psychological quality are essential in the improvement of aural ability. 在作听力练习时,力求保持放松,自然和稳定的心态.即建立自信心和培养良好的心理素质在听力提高中致关重要. C. We may make some simple notes while listening, for examples, the names of people and places, time, age, distance, occupation, figures and so on to get a better understanding of the content. 在作听力练习时,我们可以作些简单的笔记,例如人名,地名,时间,年龄,职业,数字等以便更好地理解材料.当然还要以听为主. D. Catching the drift of the content instead of understanding every word and never waste too much time on single words. 作听力练习要重材料大意, 而不要力求听懂每个词,不要在单个词上浪费太多时间. E. Pay close attention to CONCESSION and TRANSITION so as to correctly understand the attitudes of the speakers. The following words are most important: even though, even so, in spite of, unless, although, no matter, however, whatever, no, nor, neither…nor, but…. 

　　密切注意听力材料中的让步与转折以便正确把握说话人的态度.特别关注这些词: even though, even so, in spite of, unless, although, no matter, however, whatever, no, nor, neither…nor, but…. F. If we may learn by heart new words by listening some word tapes, the results must be satisfactory. 　　在背记生词时,如果能听词汇磁带,那么对听力提高也很有好处. 　　3.Reading skills:(阅读) 　　a. Intensive Reading: When we read the intensive articles, we should make notes of the new words and phrases and good sentences. After reading them, we may ask ourselves some questions about them by using such words: Who, What, Why, When and Where. Then try to answer them in our own words. 　　精读:在精读课文时,我们要把生词,词组,句型做成笔记.读后要试着用这些疑问词提问自己:谁,什么,何时,何地且努力用自己的话来回答. 　　b. Extensive reading: We must train our ability to scan, skip and read fast. Namely, the ability to catch the key words, the topic sentences and the drift of the articles. 　　泛读:要培养浏览,跳读和快读的能力.即抓住关键词,主题句和中心大意的能力. 　　c. Reading speed: Three ways to improve our reading speed: 1) Reading the articles from the beginning to the end without intervals so to catch the rough idea of the articles on the whole. Never waste too much time on some new words and single sentences. 2）We may keep time when reading articles.3) When reading articles, we can point at the words with our finger or pen point and our eyes move with the finger quickly so that we are able to read very fast. 　　阅读速度:三种方法提高我们的阅读速度:1.先从头至尾不间断地通读课文以抓住课文大意.不要在单个词或单句上浪费太多时间.2. 阅读时计时.3.阅读时用手指或笔尖指向文章字句并快速移动来迫使我们的眼睛快速随手指或笔尖移动来强化我们的阅读速度. 　　d. Newspaper as good reading materials can widen our sight and richen our knowledge. 　　多读报,多受益:开阔视野,丰富知识,学习流行词语和英语最新发展. 　　4.Writing skills.( 写作) 　　a. We have to accumulate abundant materials before we write something, say, learning by heart crowds of articles. 　　写作需要有很多素材,积累素材很重要.要多背课文. 　　b. Try to express one meaning in various ways. 　　努力用多种方式表达一种意思. 　　c. Keeping English diary if possible. 　　写英语日记. 　　a) Prepare some new words, expressions and good sentences to be used before writing something. 　　在写作前准备一些要用的好词汇,好句子. 　　b) We may also make some English pen pals to establish English communication relationship through some media like newspaper and magazines. 　　结交英语笔友,写英文信.这种方法容易坚持,还很有意思.不仿一试,好处多多

我是什么方法都用上了,还是不行啊

楼上这位朋友,不是你不行,而是你对英语学习没有足够的认识,其实学习英语很简单,要把英语当作学习的乐趣而不是负担,学好英语是需要有信心的,你也许是对自己失去了信心或者对英语没有什么兴趣,兴趣是需要培养的,漫漫去了解英语,你会发现其实英语很简单,一套更好的学习英语的方法是靠个人的经验制定出来的.

谢谢楼主,但我真的是很用心去学了,结果还是另人失望啊

6楼（8楼）的朋友：事儿可能就坏在“什么方法都用上了”。英语是慢功夫，不能看来一种新方法、试两天、不好使、再换一个。就是打吊瓶，还要打一个疗程再考虑换药呢。另外，7楼的无疑是好意，是为了激发你的学习热情，但我不太赞同“你会发现其实英语很简单”这种过分乐观的提法。你（我是说6楼的）的英语水平—恕我冒昧—可能相当不理想，那就不要存什么侥幸心理，不要寄希望于什么“巧妙方法”。恐怕还是传统的、枯燥的、甚至原始的学习方法对你最有效。前提是：坚持。

u can do anything if u set ur mind to...

谢谢这位Scandinavia 吧主!~~

不客气~~的确各人应该在学习的过程中总结出适合自己的方法另外在主观上建立那种“相信自己一定能成功”的心态同样是很必要的

呵呵,我英语确实是太烂了~~~你说的最原始的方法是什么方法呢?

☆◆★※★学外语的五大忌讳 ☆◆★※★第一，过分讲究方法和技巧，而不愿意下真功夫。语言的运用是一种技能，但这种技能不是专靠技巧能够获得的。太讲究方法和技巧会被其占用很多的时间和精力，而对学习的内容本身投入较少的时间和精力，因此反而会影响学习的效果。如有一个参加高等教育自学考试的青年，他订了10多种关于自学和考试的刊物，认真学习和研究，讲起方法来一套一套的，可他每次参考的科目却大多考不及格。这是因为他只顾钻研方法和技巧，在学习内容上花的时间和精力太少，而且养成了投机取巧、不肯下功夫的习惯。方法和技巧只能适当利用，并且要从自己的学习实践中摸索出适合自己的方法和技巧才会真正管用。 第二，过分讲究速度和效率，不愿花时间经常重复（复习）已学过的内容。语言运用是一种技能，技能则只有靠熟能生巧，要不断重复才会熟练，只有熟练了才会形成一种不假思索的技能。 第三，三天打鱼两天晒网，没有恒心，不能长期坚持学习。技能的熟练要有一个过程，在这个过程中会遇到各种困难，但不能向困难低头，要坚持不懈地反复学习，持之以恒。 第四，不重视听力训练。语言是有声的，我们对语言的感受首先是语言的声音作用于我们的大脑。如果不练习听力，只是默默地阅读和背单词，其结果不仅听不懂别人讲外语，而且阅读水平也难以提高。 第五，只学而不用。语言的实践性很强，如果只学而不用，就永远也学不好。我们学语言的目的就是为了应用，要学会在用中学习，这样才能提高兴趣，达到好的学习效果。

大概是问我。原始方法，就是广受非议的“死-记-硬-来-大-法”：1.弄一套好的教材。本人见识不广，认为《新概念英语》不错。2.认真学，每天90分钟（看你具体的工作或者学习情况了）。从第一册、第一课学起。当然，如果你有一定的基础，开始可以一次学8课、12课。3.每课的词汇都要掌握，每个语法现象和惯用法都要记住。起码当天要记住。练习都要做。尤其是Special Difficulties部分，很有价值。4.适当看看语法书。因为教材的语法教学安排较散乱，过于强调“循序渐进”，不够集中。5.按教材的进度进行单元复习。也就是隔三、两个月，把学过的内容拢一拢。如果你能坚持住，学完第二册（相当多的大学非英语专业毕业生的英文实际水平不过如此！），你的境界就高了。感觉就来了。问题就好办了。到时候就不用我罗嗦了。当然，这是我的一家之言。（惭愧，我什么“家”也不是。）

★※★☆猜词技巧★※★☆ 　　在英语学习中，我们自然会遇到许多生词。这时，许多人立即翻阅字典，查找词义。 其实，这种做法是不科学的。它不但费时费力，而且影响阅读速度。事实上，阅读材料中的每个词与它前后的词语或句子甚至段落有着互相制约的关系。我们可以利用语境（各种已知信息）推测、判断某些生词的词义。　　猜测词义时，可利用以下线索：　　一 针对性解释 　　针对性解释是作者为了更好的表达思想，在文章中对一些重要的概念、难懂的术语或 词汇等所作的解释。这些解释提供的信息具有明确的针对性，利用它们猜词义比较容易。 　　1． 根据定义猜测词义 如果生词是句子或段落所解释的定义，理解句子或段落本身就是推断词义。　　例如： 　　anthropology is the scientific study of man. 　　由定义可知，anthropology就是“研究人类的科学”。　　In slang the term "jam" constitutes a state of being in which a person finds himself or herself in a difficult situation. 　　同样，从上下文的定义可知jam一词在俚语中的意思是“困境”。 定义句的谓语动词多为：be, mean, deal with, be considered, to be, refer to, be called, be known as, define, represent, signify, constitute等。　　2根据复述猜测词义 虽然复述不如定义那样严谨、详细，但是提供的信息足以使阅读者猜出生词词义。 复述部分可以适当词、短语或是从句。 　　同位语 Semantics, the study of the meaning of words, is necessary if you are to speak and read intelligently. 　　此例逗号中短语意为“对词意义进行研究的学科”。该短语与前面生词semanties式 同位关系，因此我们不难猜出semanties指“语义学”。 　　在复述中构成同位关系的两部分之间多用逗号连接，有时也使用破折号，冒号，分 号，引号，和括号等。 　　Capacitance, or the ability to store electric charge, is one of the most common characteristics of electronic circuits. 　　由同位语我们很快猜出生词capacitance词义---电容量。　　需要注意的是：同位语前 还常有or, similarly, that is to say, in other words, namely, or other, say i. e. 等副词或短语出现。 　　定语从句 Krabacber suffers from SAD, which is short for seasonal affective disorder, a syndrome characterized by severe seasonal mood swings. 　　根据生词SAD后面定语从句which is short for seasonal affective disorder和同位语a syndrome characterized by severe seasonal mood swings, 我们可以推断出 SAD含义，即“季节性情绪紊乱症”。 　　3根据举例猜测词义 恰当的举例能够提供猜测生词的重要线索，例如： 　　The consequences of epochal events such as wars and great scientific discoveries are not confined to a small geographical area as they were in the past. 　　句中“战争”和“重大科学发现”是生词的实例，通过它们我们可以猜出epochal的 大致词义“重要的”，这与其确切含义“划时代的”十分接近。 　　二 内在逻辑关系 根据内在逻辑关系推测词义是指运用语言知识分析和判断相关信息之间存在的逻辑关 系,然后根据逻辑关系推断生词词义或大致义域。 　　1． 根据对比关系猜测词义 在一个句子或段落中，有对两个事物或现象进行对比性的描述，我们可以根据生词或 难词的反义词猜测其词义。例如： 　　Andrew is one of the most supercilious men I know. His brother, in contrast, is quite humble and modest. 　　该例中supercilious对许多人来说可能是个生词，但是句中短语in contrast，（相对照的，相对比的）可以提示我们supercilious和后面词组humble and modest（谦卑又谦虚）是对比关系。分析出这种关系后，我们便能猜出supercilious意为“目空一切 的，傲慢的”。 

非常感谢顺耳大哥的提醒,我会尽量坚持的,由衷的感谢你~~

见笑了。
