Today we're going to go over my top 5 tips for learning English with movies and TV. Many people successfully learn English this way, and the great thing about it is that you're learning something in context, not isolated like in a vocabulary list.
今天我想跟大家分享看電視電影學英語的5個絕佳妙招晌柬。很多人通過這種方法熟練掌握英語,這樣學習的好處在于郭脂,你可以結(jié)合語境年碘,而不是單純照著詞表背單詞。
And this will really help you remember it. In addition, you're learning from a native speaker, so your pronunciation should be much more accurate than if you're learning from a book if you do it right.
這樣學習記得更牢展鸡。而且你還可以直接跟母語者學習屿衅,只要方法得當,這樣學到的發(fā)音會精確很多娱颊,遠勝光靠書本默讀傲诵。
But learning English from movies and TV does NOT happen automatically. Unless you're using the tips I'm about to teach you, you won't be learning as much English as you could.
不過看電視電影學英語也不是無師自通的,大家運用我教的竅門箱硕,學習效果會更好拴竹。
But if you DO make these tips a part of your regular movie and TV watching habits, you'll have a powerful new learning tool that's always available to you! Now, this is not about relaxing and unwinding watching TV or a movie, this is about learning. It's an active experience, part of your studies.
如果你能將這些竅門融匯到日常觀影習慣中,就掌握了一項語言學習的新利器剧罩。請注意栓拜,你不能抱著放松身心,舒緩精神的心態(tài)來觀影。這是在學英語幕与,要付出努力挑势,這是學習過程的一部分。
Let's get started. Tip 1:? Work at your level. If listening comprehension is a big challenge for you, and you want to work on that specifically, start with a simple scene involving just a few people in a quiet environment.
我們開始吧啦鸣!第一個竅門: 量力而為潮饱,如果聽力對你來說比較困難,你想重點鍛煉一下诫给,那就從人物較少香拉,相對安靜的場景開始。
I really like dramas because I think in general the pace of speaking is a little slower. HER is a great movie for this: slow pace, clear speech. "What's the rush?" That was relatively easy to understand.
我很喜歡劇情類影片中狂,因為相對來講語速較慢《她》這部電影非常合適凫碌,語速慢、發(fā)音清晰胃榕。"著什么急?"比較容易聽懂吧盛险。
If your listening comprehension is very good and you're just looking to pick up new vocabulary or phrases, or you want to challenge your listening comprehension, you can do this by trying a scene in a noisy room, or a scene where people are speaking with a non-standard accent.
如果你的聽力已經(jīng)很好,想學習新的詞匯和表達勋又】嗑颍或者進一步提升難度,挑戰(zhàn)自我赐写,可以選擇環(huán)境嘈雜的場景鸟蜡,或者角色講話帶口音的影視作品。
"It's that or we both better go do something else, pal." That was likely much harder to understand. So, work at a level that's right for you. One that's not so challenging that you understand almost nothing.
"就得這樣挺邀,不然咱們只能改行了揉忘,哥們兒"這樣大概比較難懂《祟酰總之泣矛,要根據(jù)自己的水平量力而為,不要選幾乎完全聽不懂的素材禾蚕。
Tip 2:? Use a video player that has the right tools: a toggle for subtitles and a way to easily skip back in the video. Both Netflix and HBO Go have these features, and no they did not pay me to say this.
第二個竅門: 選擇合適的播放工具您朽,可以通過控制欄調(diào)出字幕快進快退那種。網(wǎng)飛和HBO Go的界面都有這種功能换淆,我不是在幫他們打廣告啦哗总!
On YouTube, you can do a search on a topic that interests you, and filter it so you'll only see videos with a closed captioning file.
你也可以在油管上搜索自己感興趣的話題,運用過濾器篩選帶官方字幕的視頻倍试。
But the YouTube player doesn't have a way to easily jump back a few seconds like Netflix or HBO Go, they have a skip back 10 seconds button and I think if you can afford a subscription to one of those services, it's really useful.
不過油管視頻播放器不太容易快退讯屈,不能像網(wǎng)飛和HBO Go那樣退后幾秒,那兩家有后退十秒的按鈕县习,所以我覺得經(jīng)濟條件允許的話下可以考慮訂閱一下涮母,很有幫助谆趾。
Let's go on to tip 3 to see why. Tip 3:? Use subtitles and the following method to learn. Step 1 is to listen without the subtitles. When you hear something you don't understand, or a word you don't know and it's okay if that's pretty frequent, pause the player.
你也可以在油管上搜索自己感興趣的話題,運用過濾器篩選帶官方字幕的視頻叛本。不過油管視頻播放器不太容易快退沪蓬,不能像網(wǎng)飛和HBO Go那樣退后幾秒。
Go back 10 seconds and listen again, pause it. Can you figure it out? Write down as much of the sentence as you can in a notebook that you have just for this purpose. Use an app if you like, but I prefer writing by hand.
那兩家有后退十秒的按鈕来候,所以我覺得經(jīng)濟條件允許的話下可以考慮訂閱一下跷叉,很有幫助。這回聽出來了嗎?把聽出來的全部記下來吠勘,專門準備一個筆記本記錄這些性芬,手機應(yīng)用當然也行,我比較喜歡手寫剧防。
Then, turn on the English subtitles and go back and listen again. Listen and watch with the subtitles on. Now, maybe the part you didn't get is a brand new word that you've never seen or heard before. Great, this is an awesome way to learn new vocabulary.
之后打開字幕,倒回去再聽一遍辫樱,帶字幕重新看一遍峭拘,或許你沒聽懂的是個生詞,之前沒有碰到過狮暑。這很好鸡挠,這樣積累詞匯也不錯。
Write the word down, look up the definition, and write down the sentence you heard it in. Even write down the show or the movie and the scene. Remembering this context will absolutely help you remember the word. But maybe when you go back and watch with the subtitles you realize you know all those words.
把這個生詞記下來搬男,查字典拣展,把整句都記下來。最好把劇集或電影還有相應(yīng)場景也記下來缔逛,記錄語境絕對有助于你牢記這個單詞备埃,不過當你帶字幕回放之后也有可能發(fā)現(xiàn)所有單詞都認識。
Why didn't you understand it? That's a very important question and answering it is the key to improving your listening comprehension. Perhaps the phrase was said very quickly and there were reductions in there that made it very hard to identify the word.
怎么就是沒聽懂?這個問題很重要褐奴,解決這個難題是提高聽力的關(guān)鍵所在按脚,是不是語速過快。
Or maybe a word has a pronunciation that's completely different than what you thought. Write down the full sentence now and circle the words you didn't understand. Then use the skip back button to listen many times... five, maybe even more.
或者句中有略讀現(xiàn)象敦冬,使得某個單詞很難辨析辅搬。又或者某個單詞的發(fā)音與你預想的完全不一樣,把整句都寫下來圈出沒聽懂的單詞脖旱,用快退鍵反復播放... 重聽五次堪遂,甚至更多。
Something was pronounced in a way that you were not expecting. Study how the native speaker pronounces it. Importantly, say the phrase out loud yourself a few times, imitating the native speaker as precisely as you can.
看看哪些單詞的讀音出乎你的意料萌庆,仔細聆聽母語者如何發(fā)音溶褪。更重要的是,要自己大聲讀幾遍踊兜,盡量模仿母語者的發(fā)音竿滨。
Write down the correct pronunciation in your notebook. Maybe even take it a step further: Go to Youglish.com and type the word or phrase you didn't understand. Hear lots of other examples of native speakers using that word or phrase, and pay attention.
把正確的發(fā)音記在本子里佳恬,或者還可以更進一步,登陸Youglish.com網(wǎng)站于游,輸入你沒聽懂的這個單詞或表達毁葱,尋找別的范例,仔細聽其他母語者如何發(fā)音贰剥。
Is it reduced? Why was it so hard for you to understand the first time? This kind of work will really pay off. Youglish is a search engine for YouTube videos with English subtitles and you can filter it to American English, and skip from clip to clip.
是略讀了嗎?一開始為什么沒聽出來?這樣的努力肯定會有成效倾剿,Youglish網(wǎng)站可以搜索自帶英字的油管視頻,還可以選擇美式英語蚌成,多個視頻換著聽前痘。
You can also move forward or backward within a clip to get the full context. It's a great way to supplement your learning. Just like in the movies, I did a quick costume change.
還能在同一視頻中快進或快退,獲得完整語境担忧,對英語學習很有幫助芹缔,就像拍電影一樣,我換了套戲服瓶盛。
Tip 4:? Review it! If you've taken the time to do the work of watching, pausing, writing down sentences, vocab words, and the context you learned them in, then do yourself a favor and solidify that learning.
第四個訣竅: 復習!既然你已經(jīng)花了這么多功夫觀看最欠、暫停、做筆記惩猫、積累單詞芝硬、記錄語境了,一定要鞏固學習成果才對得起自己的努力轧房。
Keep your English in Movies notebook close by so if you have a bit of extra time, waiting for an appointment, or on your commute, or during your lunch break, you can remind yourself what you learned yesterday.
看電影學英語專用筆記本要隨身攜帶拌阴,這樣你一有空閑時間。比如等待約見奶镶、通勤或午休迟赃,就可以趁機復習前一天所學的知識。
If you learned a new vocabulary word, try to come up with your own sentences for it now. Practice speaking your new words and phrases out loud whenever possible.
如果學到新詞匯实辑,可以嘗試用它造句捺氢,抓住一切機會放聲使用這些詞匯或表達。
And Tip 5:? Set manageable goals for yourself. Don't try to learn 100 new words or phrases a day. That's too many. Make it your goal to really learn 5 or 6. When you learn them in context and review them for seven days, that will get you good results.
第五個訣竅: 切勿好高騖遠剪撬。別妄想一天學會100個生詞摄乒,那太多了,學5個残黑、6個就夠了馍佑。結(jié)合語境,復習七天梨水,學習效果一定不錯拭荤。
Trying to learn too many too often means very little being remembered and leads to burnout. This method I've given you is time-consuming, but it is concrete and you will really learn this way.
太過急功近利效果反而不好,最后記住的不多疫诽,而且會搞得自己精疲力盡舅世。我教大家的這個方法非常耗時耗力旦委,但也堅實可靠,保證你學有所獲雏亚。
If you've gotten 5 or 10 good word or phrases in the first few minutes of a show or movie, reward yourself! Close your notebook and watch the rest for enjoyment and pleasure.
如果你剛看幾分鐘就學到了5到10個實用詞匯或表達缨硝,就犒賞自己吧!合上筆記本,盡情享受接下來的觀影體驗罢低。
