  提高SAT词汇量对于提高SAT考试的整体成绩有非常大的影响,那么该如何做才好呢?下面澳际小编就为大家整理了提高SAT词汇量的三个方法,非常实用,供大家在备考的时候,进行适当的参考和借鉴之用。

  No wonder English poses such a challenge to non-native speakers. This most global of languages has more words than any other, over one million at last count according to the Global Language Monitor (languagemonitor.org) And these million words are more varied in their form and origin thanks to English’s willing absorption of words from other languages. Out of this vast collection, the average American college student has mastered between 8,000-15,000. In contrast, the best English learners in China – as measured by Gaokao results – know a mere 3,000-4,000 words.

  Realizing that like bricks, words are the building blocks of language, many Chinese students diligently try to catch up. Dutifully, they make out long lists of words – often in alphabetical order – and simply memorize their dinitions and Chinese translations.

  The bad news is that dinition memorization does them little good when it comes to college entrance tests like the SAT and AP which demand that a reader and writer understand, not merely, parrot words studied.

  The good news is that there are better – and more motivating – ways to build an academic English vocabulary.

  Vocabulary Learning System

  The first thing to do is to develop an organized, but easy means of collecting and learning new words. We recommend a card system that includes the following information:Word – Simple Dinition – Phrase or Sentence –Related Words – Synonyms and Antonyms – with a Chinese translation on the reverse of the card. The advantage of this system is that with a single card, a student can learn as many as ten new words

  Keep your cards on a detachable metal ring, so you can carry them around and add to your collection daily.

  Learn by Theme not Alphabet

  Psychologist who study learning have found that people understand and remember facts better if they are presented in logical categories. For example, it is much easier to remember words that are related to each other or to a central concept than it is to remember a random list of unrelated words. Creating lists of words related to common themes – friendship, family, wealth, poverty, careers, sciences will be much more fective – and interesting – than collecting words related only by their first

  Repetition v. Repeated Encounters

  The usual way of "memorising" new material is through repeated rehearsal of the material while it is still in working memory. However, simply repeating an item seems to have little long-term fect unless some attempt is made to organise the material at the same time. But one kind of repetition that is fective is repetition of encounters with a word. It has been estimated that, when reading, words stand a good chance of being remembered if they have been met at least seven times over spaced intervals. This is why reading English – particularly English found in magazines like the Global Times, Time Magazine or Newsweek – is so often recommended as a vocabulary building strategy.

  以上就是这三个提高SAT词汇量方法的全部内容,包括了对建立词汇之间的练习,以主题记忆词汇而不是字母和重复三个方面。大家可以在备考的时候,进行适当的实践,多多实践就会找到适合自己的方法了。
