< P style = "TEXT-INDENT: 2em;"> in English reading comprehension, children often encounter a variety of more or less words, this is the biggest impact on the child reading speed barrier. If the reading process compared to a flowing stream, then the words is hard stone, Goukan, so that streams continuously stirred back to swirling waves; rush will be getting better, red is not in the past has become a backwater. Across the barrier can guess the meaning words to resolve. There are many ways to guess meaning, sometimes do not rely on the dictionary, it is hard to guess the true meaning of a word, in fact, then as long as the child can see that it part of speech, the role of the sentence, does not affect the reading is sufficient . For example: PEP materials on the activities of six manual page 38 Read and answer Question 5 in this sentence: Her friend Judy likes playing the violin. But Sally doesn play any instruments. She doesn like music. Obviously, instruments never learned, is the words, but does not affect the student reading, the students of the violin through the above below the music, can understand. This time, as we look at novel small or voluminous book, encounter do not know the word, not the way to use the dictionary to figure out the pronunciation and meaning of it, but just try to figure out what it means , without understanding. Words the problem is resolved, it is paving the way for future reading.
ability to convey his ideas to improve word knowledge, learning English is an important part can not be ignored . How can we figure out unfamiliar words mean?
one, according to the context of prompt
article context or coherence to always take care of before and after. This particular context, the same will not learn the meaning of words confined to a small inch of land. This we teach children to guess the meaning provided very favorable conditions.
Example 1: — I like to buy a mobile phone.
— Well, what brand do you like, Motorola, Nokia or Siemens?
Analysis: Since the mobile phone to buy, the next sentence also provides a Motorola, Nokia, Siemens (do not know if these three words, it does not matter, you can guess by the upper and transliteration, etc. out), then the brand is what does that mean? Obviously, definitely, “brand” “brand” of.
Example 2: If you take it, I l give you a 10% discount.
Analysis: If you buy it, I will give you 10% of what? Can only be “none”, “discount” and the like.
Second, the basis of the experience and knowledge network
we all know, an article about computer knowledge for a computer-savvy students, his computer knowledge will help him to speculate that the article in the professional vocabulary, and to understand text, understand the author intention. Therefore, we must teach children around the world on a wide range of knowledge and understanding of a variety of backgrounds, in particular, should pay attention more to help children to broaden the Anglo-American and other Western countries, cultures, and foreign political, economic, technological, natural, historical, cultural, and social To help the children a broad range. These areas of knowledge, often for the words of understanding provides the basis for important information. Differences in cultural knowledge often leads students to understand the different meanings, and sometimes even misleading.
Example 1: Now satellites are helping to forecast the weather.
Analysis: Now what the weather satellite is helping it? Based on our experience gained from watching television, to know “prediction.”
Example 2: If you make a lot of progress in your study, you parents will be happy.
Analysis: What has made in learning, parents will be happy? Can only be “progress, progress.”
three, according to a fixed term with
In many cases, well-known words will tend to limit the meaning of the word of a circle, they are not to speculate learn the meaning of words, provides a good help. If we can teach children the pretext of the transfer of knowledge, can make the words to Mohua. Sometimes to guess the exact meaning of the word is not science, but it probably can guess the meaning. This will not be enough to ensure the child understanding of large deviations.
Example 1: I was driving a taxi when something happened.
Analysis: In this sentence, we learned drive, and you know it, and transport used in conjunction, so do not know though taxi, and perhaps even appear as drive a minibus / motorbike. .. and other similar phrases, but does not affect our understanding of the whole sentence.
Example 2: Yesterday I read an interesting novel, today I would like to read it again.
Analysis: We learned read a book / story, etc., it is not difficult to understand what can read and see nothing more than books, newspapers, magazines, stories, novels and the like.
four, according to the word-building knowledge
in English, word formation, there are three main methods, namely, synthesis, transformation and derivation. They can not effectively help the child to guess the meaning of the word knowledge, and to expand children vocabulary, so that the child informed.
1. synthesis. The so-called synthetic, in the middle stage is defined by two words together to form a new word, and some use a hyphen “-” connected, either directly write together, the word means basically two compound words, and.
Example 1: I have a terrible toothache.
Analysis: learned headache “headache”, then the tooth “teeth”, ache “pain”, together is the “toothache” the.
Example 2: The internet is a larger, worldwide collection of computer networks.
analysis : learned world “the world”, wide “broad, wide,” together is the “global”; net “net”, work “work” together is the “network.”
2. transformation. The so-called transformation, from one part of speech into another part of speech; or converted from one meaning to another meaning.
Example 3: He wrote a book last year. (noun, “book”)
I booked a ticket to New York. (verb, “Order”)
3. derived. Derived from a root that is called with a prefix or suffix form another word.
Example 4: He was sorry for that piece of carelessness.
Analysis: learned care, the term “be careful” with the adjective suffix less constitute “careless” and together with the suffix ness, has become the term “careless.”
Example 5: When she heard the bad news, she went out unhappily.
analysis : studied happy “happy” plus-ly, adverb has become “happy”, coupled with the prefix un-, on a “happy land.”
five, according to the grammatical function analysis
learning and mastery of English, without grammar of this internal context, to grasp the grammatical context, to guide the child in-depth study, a significant effect. Syntax is not outside the box of the list, but the inner substance of a language, it contains morphology and syntax. From the part of speech, sentence elements such as parsing and try to understand the whole sentence, the problem will tend to be solved.
Example: Lucy keeps her bedroom clean and tidy.
Analysis: This is a simple sentence is a basic sentence, “verb object adjective for Bin up” structure, according to this, the problem is solved in half, then clean is also found “clean” means, and to connect with, and “clean” about what it means? Can only be “neat, clean”, this, sentence was intended to smooth the.
In short, in the future study, these alone are not enough We must teach children over time to effectively develop children sense of language, to develop more books, ground reflection and ground analysis of the good habits. Learning method, but is not fixed. I firmly believe: If you encounter new words, as long as children have the confidence, determination, courage and perseverance, the children learn the “stumbling block” will be Bandiao .
