Tips for your notebook

英语发音规则与技巧的书(英式发音英语在用)(1)

1. Put words from one topic in the same place, e.g. food in one place, clothes in another, etc. Don’t mix them up. You can also have grammar topics, e.g. ‘uncountable nouns’ (不可数名词), or a page for words that all have a connection, e.g. words and phrases that were all in a story you read in English. Some words and phrases will go in more than one topic.

2. If you can’t find a topic for a new word or phrase, e.g. useful or in particular, put them in a different place in your notebook, e.g. a page for each day or each week, or perhaps one page for every English lesson you have. Write the date clearly at the top, e.g. Monday 14th May.

3. When you write down new vocabulary, write a translation if it is necessary, but also write the meaning in English if it is possible, or draw pictures.

4. If possible, add synonyms (近义词), opposites (反义词), other parts of speech (其它词性), etc.

awful adj = terrible (syn dreadful)

enjoy v = like something and get pleasure from it, noun (名词) = enjoyment, adj (形容词) = enjoyable

5. Example sentences help you with the grammar of a word, or with word partners (collocations 搭配).

I enjoy living in a big city. (NOT I enjoy to live in a big city.)

I spent two weeks in Rome. (NOT I passed two weeks in Rome. You spend time in a place.)

6. Remember, words often have more than one meaning that you need to know, e.g. a tip is also money that you give, for example, to a waiter for serving you in a restaurant.
