Expansion of vocabulary and the relationship between reading ability in English

Vocabulary and reading the first chapter of the importance of English

We have just begun to exposure to English, the first vocabulary is encountered. The vocabulary in the importance of learning English, it is indispensable. As the cornerstone of high-rise, the consolidation of the status of occupied. Serious lack of vocabulary constraints listening, speaking, reading, writing and translation of various aspects of capacity, will also make all kinds of candidates in the examination it is difficult to obtain good results. At the same time, we also noted: the importance of English proficiency test is one means to examine the level of reading comprehension. Therefore, in the English papers, the reading comprehension part of the game accounted for a high of about 40%. Description This is obviously to improve reading comprehension test in English is significant. If we say the word back is simply the accumulation of vocabulary is the basis for learning English, then read the article on learning English should be a leap in capability is integrated, it immense benefits from it. In particular, for improving the reading skills for all kinds of subjects related to memorize some of the articles, absolutely can enhance all types of candidates perceived ability in English. Foreign language learners who have 5,000 vocabulary, reading accuracy rate of up to 56%; amounted to 6400 words, reading accuracy rate of up to 63%. So, have enough to do a good job the British English vocabulary is the first title reading comprehension and basic conditions. As the saying goes, lofty towers are all built from the ground. For foreign language learners, if do not have a certain vocabulary, improve their standard of English like to talk about building castles in the air. In order to improve reading comprehension, solely by means of one or two but the word is impossible.

Application of chapter to read

To really learn English well, one not confined to school "textbook English" only school textbooks, learning good English. Due to the needs of teaching, "textbook English" is a more "idealized" language material, which in real life for the purpose of the exchange of authentic materials have a certain distance. The second is not to learn "English", so a large number of various types of questions may help you to improve exam scores, but this is definitely not a wise move to raise the standard of English! A lot of reading is learning English as a major way, and reading itself is one of the purposes of learning a foreign language.
Reading is the most frequent language of an activity. It can be said that a person with a basic cultural qualities, the major is to learn by reading the information, to cultivate the culture of sentiment. A lot of reading but also to promote the improvement of other language skills. For example, you want to raise the level of spoken language, it can not be satisfied with a simple conversation, the conversation you have to be profound, the problem has its own views to be read by a large number of "input"; read-only write is not enough. Road to write in English, starting with a first reading.

Chapter III of the way of reading

Section I develop a reading habit and skills

Foreign language teaching in the public process, some students in the reading process to punctuate articles, repetition, word for word, such as understanding the negative inefficient reading habits. For some students to read word for word in this inefficient way, teachers in the classroom should be to guide and strengthen the students to read the whole law. The so-called global methods to read, referring to "focus not on the time to read every word in, but directly on the integrity of the contents of the chapter." As a result of this reading in the time constraints, are not allowed to look up at the same time , so students have to read to concentrate on the content of the article on the prediction and understanding in order to not lose sight of even taking into account a number of new words and grammar, such as details of the phenomenon. Of course, the reading speed depends on the information processing capacities, but also to read in close connection with the purpose of changing the way of reading. For a small number of students a solid foundation to begin to reduce the difficulty of properly in order to change the old habits of students confidence. For example, the article could be used for training in Chinese, simple English and then to a small article, and then gradually increase the difficulty of reading materials.

Section II to increase the amount of reading

Urge students to read extra-curricular training in addition to the classroom, it is necessary to supervise a large number of students in extra-curricular reading, in order to consolidate classroom learning outcomes. According to the actual English proficiency of students in extra-curricular reading appropriate books is necessary. At present, the publication of the "21st Century", "College English", "remedial English", "English" and many other newspapers and magazines provide a large number of moderate difficulty of reading materials. In addition, a set of English newspapers, can be set to start looking at the case of students, such as "English weekly", with the level of sub-set "Beijing weekly", then set "China Daily". A large vocabulary newspaper, covering all aspects of the expansion of vocabulary, access to information helpful.
By the third quarter to increase reading vocabulary

In reading, we do not often encounter the word. Well, at this time we know we are the best words to use to guess. Or, to think about the context, at this time should be able to guess. In addition, a variety of methods can be reached after the issue of text. For example, can go to the corresponding text找答案Department can also be excluded from the options. In short, it needs to have a large number of terms, otherwise, everything is just empty talk.

Section IV The role of vocabulary

Vocabulary is Chinese students to improve reading ability of the "bottleneck", especially in the reading stage of junior high school level. Therefore, the same level of university students or English learners who will have to read through a number or other means to expand vocabulary, as far as possible.

However, the vocabulary has been mastered it is not the same as, say, first year junior high school students take over the verb and preposition in, but take in two words together, what does this mean? I am afraid that in 2056 studied English people who do not know, Take in not "get into" a dozen of the meaning of the verb phrase, which means that a common "deceive somebody" is taken, such as: We were all taken in by her plausible manner. (Ambiguous attitude towards her so that we are上了当.) And even some very common terms, such as water, when and verb make once a time, make water will not "water" but "urine"! So attention to mastery of vocabulary in this regard, it would be helpful to improve reading ability.

On the other hand, each book vocabulary range of all types of books, as well as a variety of word memory from one side shows the importance of vocabulary. To the real exam, it was found that the so-called not very useful skills, as papers open reading materials found throughout the entire "land mines" - words, struggling. They joked that the whole article article only recognize a, an, the, pronouns I, we, you, and Conjunctions and, but, etc., ask them how to scan, skim, or guess the meaning of new words? Therefore, we should have a good way to expand vocabulary.
