英语学习以“读”为本,是开启英语世界的金钥匙。 毛泽东曾说过“语言的掌握是要下些真功夫不可的。”古人就对“读”这一功夫作过许多肯定与推崇。“读书百遍,其义自见。”“熟读唐诗三百首,不会作诗也会吟。”古人的这些主张是有一定道理的,因为语言的学习是要符合从量变到质变这一原理的。同样作为语言的一种的英语也只有多读才能达到“胸藏万江凭吞吐,笔者千钧任歙张”的境界。 具体来说,第一是先选好教材,即精读课本、泛读课本。精读课本要求熟读背诵,或干脆叫《熟读背诵课本》,应选择思想内容好,语言文字规范,易于形成能力,适合自己朗读背诵的文章组成,并辅以有关参考资料即可。比如《新概念英语》及辅导手册。它就具有语言地道篇章短小精悍、故事有趣生动,且读起来又朗朗上口的独到特点。所以很适合于英语自学者的基础学习。泛读教材指的是广义教材。凡是与英语相关的报刊、书籍、图表都可多接触,开拓自己的视野,培养广泛阅读的良好习惯和态度。 第二是着手精深地熟读,开展广泛地阅读。古人阅读讲究熟读、深思和背诵。朱熹主张“观书须熟读,使其言皆若出于吾口,继以精思,使其意皆若出于吾心”。精读课本的学习就是要这样体现了一个“精”字,使书与我化,我与书化,书为我用。具体使用起精读 English learning is based on “reading” and is the golden key to the English world. Mao Zedong once said that “the mastery of language is to do some real work.” The ancients have made many affirmations and esteem for the “reading” effort. “Reading a hundred times, the meaning of their own see.” “Reading 300 poems of Tang poetry, will not make poetry will be jealous.” These claims of the ancients is a certain reason, because language learning is to meet the change from quantitative to qualitative One principle. In the same way, as a language of English, only by reading more can we achieve the realm of “thinking in the face of the river, and the author is arrogant.” Specifically, the first is to select textbooks that are intensive reading textbooks and extensive reading textbooks. Intensive reading textbooks require to read the recitation, or simply call it “reading a recitation textbook,” and should choose the ideological content is good, language and text norms, easy to form the ability for the composition of their reading aloud articles, supplemented with relevant reference materials. Examples include New Concept English and tutorials. It has the unique characteristics of short and refined language, authentic and lively story, and a catchy read. So it is very suitable for the basic learning of English self-learners. Extensive reading materials refer to broad teaching materials. All the newspapers, books, and charts related to English can be contacted, expand their horizons, and cultivate good habits and attitudes for extensive reading. The second is to begin intensive reading and conduct extensive reading. The ancients read carefully about reading, reflection and recitation. Zhu Xi advocated that “the reading of the book must be familiar with the reading of the book, so that it can be made out of my mouth, followed by contemplation, so that it makes my heart come from my heart”. The study of intensive textbooks is to embody a “precise” word so that the book will be transformed into a book, and I will become a book and use it for my own purposes.
