“句式魔方”帮助孩子突破英语学习中的第二难关——单词词义、短语积累与生成、句子生成转换能力。
通过学习“句式魔方”，孩子最终能形成语感，内化成语言本能，熟练生成各种句子。
没有学习“句式魔方”的孩子，要么只能机械的用各种单词按照汉语习惯，生成各种中式英语句子，要么就是不得不花费大量的精力背诵各种语法规则，亦步亦趋的按照这些规则生成句子，很可能被各种语法细碎知识点搞得头昏脑涨而丧失学习兴趣。而学习了“句式魔方”的孩子，通过“句式魔方”的短语矩阵训练，不但能熟练的生成各种短语，并在训练的过程中，增加了语感，还能再具体的语境中自然习得单词含义，同时“句式魔方”通过其核心句的生成以及其它五种基本句式推导转换的练习，让孩子熟练掌握各种句式和常用时态的变化，最终获得句子生成能力。
学完“句式魔方”，一方面有了具体语境后，孩子就知道了单词意义，再结合已习得的“表音密码”基础，孩子就可将单词的“音”、“形”、“意”对应起来，彻底解决单词问题；另一方面，孩子可掌握短语与句子的生成机制，以及应对各种时态与句式的转换问题，来轻松自主的生成各种句子，掌握应用！
