The purpose of college English teaching is to cultivate students' strong reading ability, certain listening ability (the applicable syllabus for science and engineering also stipulates certain translation ability) and preliminary writing and speaking ability, so that students can use English as a tool to obtain the information needed for their majors.
And lay a good foundation for further improving English. To this end, this exam mainly examines students' language use ability, and also examines students' mastery of grammatical structure and word usage.
The accumulation of common words in college English vocabulary can be started from the following aspects:
First of all, listen often. From the beginning, you should listen to the speech materials or programs at a normal speed, which can be extensive or intensive. Extensive reading is mainly to be familiar with English pronunciation, intonation and rhythm, and to understand the story. The purpose of intensive listening is not to miss every word. Once you hear an unfamiliar word, you should try to spell it according to its pronunciation. If necessary, you can check the dictionary to confirm the word form and know the meaning.
Second, read and recite frequently. Because words only exist in specific phrases, sentences or paragraphs, and even have certain semantics in specific contexts, the effect of memorizing words alone is not good. We advocate learning vocabulary in context.
Third, look more. Read more English novels and poems, especially English newspapers and periodicals. In this way, we can not only be familiar with common words, but also learn lively, fresh and authentic words. Practice has proved that for commonly used words, firstly, through continuous application and investigation, they can be firmly remembered; Second, repeated contact and frequent use can be used correctly. Only by mastering vocabulary firmly can we draw inferences from one another.
