英语词根记忆法
英语单词中约90%的词都是由词根、前缀、后缀构成的，而且都是学生记忆比较困难的词。将来的考研词汇、托福词汇、专业外语词汇也是与词根密不可分的。我做过试验，让学生在10分钟内记忆三组同一家族（即同一词根的）词，约30个单词。 随后检验结果非常好，即使是学习成绩还不算好的学生都差欢嗄芗亲 ?四级词汇所需词根约150个， 能扩展出近2000单词。加上高中所学1800单词， 基本能满足四级 考试所需词汇。这里将陆续推出在我们所学的当代大学英语每一册各单元的词汇表中构词力较强的词根。所以只要你每天抽出10分钟记忆一个单元的词，再花10分钟自测一下，50天坚持下来相信你的词汇量绝对是今昔非比！而且你学会了一种能力-猜词，这对你今后的自学、发展、深造都是一大笔本钱。更重要的是，这样记忆的词不容易忘掉了！

英语单词中约90%的词都是由词根、前缀、后缀构成的，而且都是学生记忆比较困难的词。将来的考研词汇、托福词汇、专业外语词汇也是与词根密不可分的。我做过试验，让学生在10分钟内记忆三组同一家族（即同一词根的）词，约30个单词。 随后检验结果非常好，即使是学习成绩还不算好的学生都差欢嗄芗亲 ?四级词汇所需词根约150个， 能扩展出近2000单词。加上高中所学1800单词， 基本能满足四级 考试所需词汇。这里将陆续推出在我们所学的当代大学英语每一册各单元的词汇表中构词力较强的词根。所以只要你每天抽出10分钟记忆一个单元的词，再花10分钟自测一下，50天坚持下来相信你的词汇量绝对是今昔非比！而且你学会了一种能力-猜词，这对你今后的自学、发展、深造都是一大笔本钱。更重要的是，这样记忆的词不容易忘掉了！
