(4,675 words remaining) In English learning, vocabulary is the key and the foundation of English learning, which determines students' English level to some extent. Without enough vocabulary, they can't listen, speak, read and write effectively, and they can't communicate effectively in English. The success or failure of vocabulary teaching determines the success or failure of foreign language teaching. Teachers should pay attention to vocabulary teaching, pay attention to the diversification of vocabulary teaching methods, and implement corresponding vocabulary teaching strategies from various aspects. So as to improve the effectiveness of vocabulary teaching. The teaching principle of "based on vocabulary system and paying attention to the outside of vocabulary teaching" Countermeasures to improve effective English vocabulary teaching: 1. Cultivate students' interest in learning English, and let them change from "weariness" to "enjoyment" (1). Einstein said, "Interests and hobbies are the best. The use of visual AIDS just stimulates students' learning motivation. At an appropriate time, teachers can play the role of "catalyst" by adopting intuitive teaching. In vocabulary teaching, teachers use objects, pictures, slides, gestures, expressions and a series of auxiliary teaching AIDS to introduce new words, which can not only attract students' attention, but also make them actively participate, thus gaining a sense of satisfaction and improving their interest in learning. Then the classroom atmosphere will be active. For example, when learning verb phrases such as boating, playing the piano, going skiing, etc., teachers can introduce them through actions and say the phrases while doing them, so that students can understand them very easily. Then, let the students follow the teacher's actions, read these phrases rhythmically, and row at the same time, and the students' interest in learning will definitely rise. Students will be interested in learning English. Then their attitude towards foreign language learning will be positive, and their hearts will be eager to learn this language. Although it is difficult to learn and consolidate, because of their positive attitude, they are willing to master the language hard, so as to perform well in front of classmates and teachers in the future, and even speak a few words when they meet foreigners. (2) Teaching vocabulary riddles through riddles is also a way to stimulate students' interest in learning. Once they are interested, they will take an active part. So as to improve the ability of listening, speaking, reading and writing, and finally firmly remember words. Some words are guessed by riddles, which will get twice the result with half the effort and improve students' understanding ability over time. For example, what has a bed but never sleeps and a mouth but never talks? I jumped into the water. (Waiter) ③ What has four legs but only one foot? (A bed) 4 What has many keys but can't open a door? (a piano), etc. These riddles are easy to understand and also exercise students' listening and speaking ability and thinking ability. (3) Psychologists believe that interest can enhance memory through the study of game-assisted vocabulary teaching, and interest is people's positive and lasting cognitive tendency to things, accompanied by the excitement center of thinking activities in the cerebral cortex. Playfulness is a child's nature, and we can't suppress this nature. Can only guide. The game is a kind of entertainment that integrates knowledge and fun, and it is also a kind of learning style that children prefer. Needless to say, even adults don't like boring, boring and boring classes. In such a class, students' enthusiasm for learning is zero. If you want to arouse children's enthusiasm for learning, you should let them "learn while playing". In vocabulary teaching, vivid and diverse forms should be adopted to alleviate students' boredom and anxiety about vocabulary. Only when teachers help them clear these psychological barriers can children's abilities in all aspects be improved. For example, when learning body parts, you can hear your head and tough your head with your hand to see who can react quickly. This can train the reaction speed of learning, the memory ability of words and the coordination degree of the body. This not only increases students' interest in learning English, but also reduces the negative impact of learning English, and also exercises other abilities. 2. Cultivate students' learning ability. Let students change from "study hard" to "study hard" (1). If she taught in different schools, I wouldn't meet my best friend. A teacher did a good job in this field. When learning new words, he introduces new words with similar words he has learned. Such as warm-warn, table-table, sofa-solo, city-pitty, heat-beat, etc., reduce the difficulty of new words and make students realize that they can learn vocabulary in this way. "Although the total number of English words is millions, the basic word-formation components are limited. Every English word is inextricably linked with other words in terms of sound, form and meaning. " It is a molecule in the whole English vocabulary system. "It can be seen that there is a connection between words and it is very systematic. Teachers should also make use of these characteristics of vocabulary in teaching and take vocabulary system as the basis. Of course, teachers can't directly talk about these characteristics. It is best to show them when they are concentrating on teaching vocabulary, so that students can sum up their own findings. This kind of study involves students' personal participation. Generally speaking, the author thinks that the following methods can be adopted: ① Change the alphabet method. Words are all composed of 26 English letters, so we can easily remember them as long as we carefully observe and compare the similarities between words, such as fight-right-eight-possible, horse-house, past-last；; Cause-cause, read-pass; Hours, direct, indirect, etc. ② Synthetic morphology. When two or more words are put together again, a new word is formed, which gives the word a new meaning. Such words are easy to understand, easy to remember and sometimes interesting. Such as basketball, sunshine, housework, etc. Summarize the words of the same category for easy memory. For example, words representing body organs: head, eyes, face, ears, nose, mouth, neck, shoulders, arms, hands, stomach, legs, knees and feet; Words indicating colors: red, green, white, black, blue, pink, yellow, orange, purple, brown, etc. ④ Part-of-speech conversion. For China students who lack English language learning environment, they must master part of speech from the perspective of grammar. Learn by changing words. There are common conversions between verbs and nouns, nouns and adjectives, adjectives and adverbs, such as teach-teacher, sing-sing, win-winner, rain-rain, snow-snow；; Bright-brightly; Health-health-health; Tooth-toothache, etc. ⑤ Prefix suffix method. Adding a prefix before a word or a suffix after a word can change the word's part of speech and meaning, such as Hope-Hope-Hope, Care- caution; Like-not like, maybe-impossible, and so on. ⑥ The echo method is to use the last letter of a word as the first letter of the next word, so that the practice can improve the proficiency of reviewing words, such as see-elephant-teacher-red-duck-know-... For words, students will naturally be less afraid. (2) Teaching vocabulary of English interpretation English interpretation is to explain new words with simple words that students have learned and words that are synonymous, similar or antonym with new words, so that students can master listening, speaking, reading and writing of new words on the basis of original knowledge. This method not only trains students' listening, but also receives the effect of bringing the old with the new and promoting the old with the new. " The first condition for learning a language is to input a large number of understandable language materials into the brain through listening and reading. With a large number of sufficient language input and accumulation, language rules can be formed. "This requires teachers to teach in English and explain words and sentences in English. Set up English communication scenarios to inspire students to think in English. English interpretation meets the requirement of inputting a large amount of language materials into the brain through listening and speaking. Students can understand what the teacher says in English and know the meaning of new words, which increases their confidence in learning and naturally improves their confidence in participating in and actively learning. For example, the following words can be explained as follows: ① Holiday: the time after work; 2 invitation: invite people to dinner or party; 3 housework: work done around home; ④ afternoon: beeen 12:00, and 6: 00 during the day; 5 exams: important school exams; 6 different: different; ⑦ Entrance: the place to enter, etc. Of course, explaining English words in simple English requires teachers to do some collection work before class to find the simplest words. (3) Creating Context Teaching Vocabulary In junior high school English vocabulary, many words have completely different meanings in different sentences and contexts, such as: Does he run faster than you? He runs a big company. Run for president. The report was published in all the newspapers. He ran away. Wait a minute. It is precisely because of the fuzziness of words that teaching words must be placed in a certain context. Let the students know when and how to use this word. The same is true of the use of cultural and educational words. For example, when we learn manners, teachers can create such a context: S: Yes, it means "politeness". T: Yes, very good. You see what I mean. Now read after me: courtesy, courtesy. She is polite, and so am I. S: You're welcome, you're welcome. She is polite, and so am I. I think Wu Yong is polite. Because he always says hello to the teacher and often gives his seat to the old man on the bus. Put politeness in the paragraph like this. Learning not only teaches students words, but also cultivates students' thinking ability, which not only enables students to understand the usage and various meanings of words more deeply through the context, so as to remember words more firmly; But also can increase students' language input, cultivate and stimulate students' curiosity and thirst for knowledge, and use it freely. In short, under the background of the new curriculum, in English teaching, teachers should attach importance to vocabulary teaching and pay attention to the interest and diversity of vocabulary teaching. In foreign language teaching, there is no teaching model that can solve all the problems. Teachers should constantly improve teaching methods, stimulate students' interest and enthusiasm in learning, and update teaching concepts. Pay attention to cultivating students' abilities of observation, memory, thinking, imagination and creation, cultivate students' ability to analyze and expand vocabulary independently, and more importantly, let students learn its meaning and usage in context and master some vocabulary learning strategies, so as to lay a solid foundation for future English learning.
