>04 ElectricityThe modern age is an age of electricity. People are so used to electriclights, radio, televisions, and telephones that it is hard to imagine whatlife would be like without them. When there is a power failure, peoplegrope about in flickering candlelight, cars hesitate in the streets becausethere are no traffic lights to guide them, and food spoils in , people began to understand how electricity works only a little morethan two centuriesago. Nature has apparently been experimenting in this field for millions ofyears. Scientists are discovering more and more that the living world mayhold many interesting secrets of electricity that could benefit living cells send out tiny pulses of electricity. As the heart beats,it sends out pulses of record; they form an electrocardiogram, which adoctor can study to determine how well the heart is working. The brain,too, sends out brain waves of electricity, which can be recorded in anelectroencephalogram. The electric currents generated by most livingcells are extremely small -- often so small that sensitive instruments areneeded to record them. But in some animals, certain muscle cells havebecome so specialized as electrical generators that they do not work asmuscle cells at all. When large numbers of these cells are linkedtogether, the effects can be electric eel is an amazing storage battery. It can send a jolt of asmuch as eight hundred volts of electricity through the water in which itlives. (An electric house current is only one hundred twenty volts.) Asmany as four-fifths of all the cells in the electric eel's body arespecialized for generating electricity, and the strength of the shock itcan deliver corresponds roughly to the length of its body.电 当今时代是电气时代。 人们对电灯、收音机、电视和电话早已司空见惯以致很难想 象没有它们生活会变成什么样。当停电时,人们在摇曳不定的烛光下暗中摸索; 因没有红 绿灯的指示,汽车在道路上迟疑不前;冰箱也停止工作,导致食物变质。人们只是在两个世纪前一点才开始了解电的使用原理,自然界却显然在这方面经历过了数百万年。 科学家不断发现许多生物世界里可能有益于人类的关于电的有趣秘密。所有生物细胞都会发出微小的 电脉冲。当心脏跳动时,把它发出的脉冲记录下来就成了心电图,这可让医生了解心脏的 工作状况。大脑也发出脑电波,这可在脑电图上记录下来。许多生物细胞发出的电流都是 极微小的,小到要用灵敏仪器才能记录和测量。 但一些动物的某些肌肉细胞能转化成一个 个发电机,以致完全失去肌肉细胞的功能。这种细胞大量地连接在一起时产生的效果将是 非常令人吃惊的。电鳗就是一种令人惊异的蓄电池。 它可以在水中发出相当于 800 伏特电压电流(家庭用户的电压只有 120 伏特)。 在电鳗的身体里,多至五分之四的细胞都专门用 来发电,而且发出的电流的强度大约和它身体的长度成正比。>05 The Beginning of DramaThere are many theories about the beginning of drama in ancient one most widely accepted today is based on the assumption that dramaevolved from ritual. The argument for this view goes as follows. In thebeginning, human beings viewed the natural forces of the world - even theseasonal changes - as unpredictable, and they sought through various meansto control these unknown and feared powers. Those measures whichappeared to bring the desired results were then retained and repeateduntil they hardened into fixed rituals. Eventually stories arose whichexplained or veiled the mysteries of the rites. As time passed some ritualswere abandoned, but the stories, later called myths, persisted and providedmaterial for art and who believe that drama evolved out of ritual also argue that thoserites contained the seed of theater because music, dance, masks,and costumes were almost always used. Furthermore, a suitable site hadto be provided for performances and when the entire communitydid not participate, a clear division was usually made betweenthe "acting area" and the"auditorium." In addition, there were performers, and, sinceconsiderable importance was attached to avoiding mistakes in theenactment of rites, religious leaders usually assumed that task. Wearingmasks and costumes, they often impersonated other people, animals, orsupernatural beings, and mimed the desired effect -- success in hunt orbattle, the coming rain, the revival of the Sun -- as an actor such dramatic representations were separated from theory traces the theater's origin from the human interest instorytelling. According to this view tales (about the hunt, war, or otherfeats) are gradually elaborated, at first through the use of impersonation,action, and dialogue by a narrator and then through the assumption of eachof the roles by a different person. A closely related theory traces theaterto those dances that are primarily rhythmical and gymnastic or thatare imitations of animal movements and sounds.戏剧的起源 关于古希腊戏剧的起源存在着多种理论,其中一个最普遍为人接受的理论 假设认为戏剧从仪式演化而来。这个观点是这样进行论证的:一开始,人类把世界上的自 然力量,甚至季节的变化都看成是不可预料的。 他们试图通过各种方式去控制这些未知的、令人恐惧的力量。 那些似乎带来了满意结果的手段就被保留下来并且重复直到这些手段固 化为不变的仪式,最后产生了能够解释或者掩盖这些仪式神秘性的故事。随着时间的推移, 一些仪式被废弃了,但这些后来被称作神话的故事流传下来并且为艺术和戏剧提供了素材。认为戏剧从仪式演化而来的人们还认为那些仪式包含了戏剧的基本因素,因为音乐、舞蹈、面具和服装几乎经常被使用,而且,必须为演出提供一个合适的地点;如果不是整个社区共 同参加演出,经常在"演出区"和"观众席"之间划分出明显的分界。另外,仪式中还有演员, 而且宗教领袖通常承担演出任务,因为在仪式的执行中避免错误的发生被认为有相当大的重要性;他们经常带着面具,穿着服装象演员那样扮演其它人、动物或超自然的生灵,用动作来表演以达到所需要的效果,比如打猎的成功或战斗的胜利、将至的雨、太阳的复活。 最 后这些戏剧性的表演从宗教活动中分离了出来。另一个追溯戏剧起源的理论认为它来自人 们对叙述故事的兴趣。 根据这个观点,故事(关于狩猎、战争或者其它伟绩)是逐渐丰富起 来的。首先通过一个讲解人来运用模仿、表演和对话,然后再由不同的人扮演各自的角色;另一个与之紧密相关的理论将戏剧的起源追溯至舞蹈,这些舞蹈大体上是有节奏感的和体操 式的那一类,或者是对动物动作和声音的模仿。
01 Youth
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.
Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing appetite for what’s next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart, there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, courage and power from man and from the infinite, so long as you are young.
When your aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you’ve grown old, even at 20; but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there’s hope you may die young at 80.
译文: 青春
青春不是年华,而是心境;青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝,而是深沉的意志,恢宏的想象,炙热的恋情;青春是生命的深泉在涌流。
青春气贯长虹,勇锐盖过怯弱,进取压倒苟安。如此锐气,二十后生而有之,六旬男子则更多见。年岁有加,并非垂老,理想丢弃,方堕暮年。
岁月悠悠,衰微只及肌肤;热忱抛却,颓废必致灵魂。忧烦,惶恐,丧失自信,定使心灵扭曲,意气如灰。
无论年届花甲,拟或二八芳龄,心中皆有生命之欢乐,奇迹之诱惑,孩童般天真久盛不衰。人人心中皆有一台天线,只要你从天上人间接受美好、希望、欢乐、勇气和力量的信号,你就青春永驻,风华常存。 、
一旦天线下降,锐气便被冰雪覆盖,玩世不恭、自暴自弃油然而生,即使年方二十,实已垂垂老矣;然则只要树起天线,捕捉乐观信号,你就有望在八十高龄告别尘寰时仍觉年轻。
02 Three Days to See (Excerpts)
All of us have read thrilling stories in which the hero had only a limited and specified time to live. Sometimes it was as long as a year, sometimes as short as 24 hours. But always we were interested in discovering just how the doomed hero chose to spend his last days or his last hours. I speak, of course, of free men who have a choice, not condemned criminals whose sphere of activities is strictly delimited.
Such stories set us thinking, wondering what we should do under similar circumstances. What events, what experiences, what associations should we crowd into those last hours as mortal beings, what regrets?
Sometimes I have thought it would be an excellent rule to live each day as if we should die tomorrow. Such an attitude would emphasize sharply the values of life. We should live each day with gentleness, vigor and a keenness of appreciation which are often lost when time stretches before us in the constant panorama of more days and months and years to come. There are those, of course, who would adopt the Epicurean motto of “Eat, drink, and be merry”. But most people would be chastened by the certainty of impending death.
In stories the doomed hero is usually saved at the last minute by some stroke of fortune, but almost always his sense of values is changed. He becomes more appreciative of the meaning of life and its permanent spiritual values. It has often been noted that those who live, or have lived, in the shadow of death bring a mellow sweetness to everything they do.
Most of us, however, take life for granted. We know that one day we must die, but usually we picture that day as far in the future. When we are in buoyant health, death is all but unimaginable. We seldom think of it. The days stretch out in an endless vista. So we go about our petty tasks, hardly aware of our listless attitude toward life.
The same lethargy, I am afraid, characterizes the use of all our faculties and senses. Only the deaf appreciate hearing, only the blind realize the manifold blessings that lie in sight. Particularly does this observation apply to those who have lost sight and hearing in adult life. But those who have never suffered impairment of sight or hearing seldom make the fullest use of these blessed faculties. Their eyes and ears take in all sights and sounds hazily, without concentration and with little appreciation. It is the same old story of not being grateful for what we have until we lose it, of not being conscious of health until we are ill.
I have often thought it would be a blessing if each human being were stricken blind and deaf for a few days at some time during his early adult life. Darkness would make him more appreciative of sight; silence would teach him the joys of sound.
译文: 假如给我三天光明(节选)
我们都读过震撼人心的故事,故事中的主人公只能再活一段很有限的时光,有时长达一年,有时却短至一日。但我们总是想要知道,注定要离世人的会选择如何度过自己最后的时光。当然,我说的是那些有选择权利的自由人,而不是那些活动范围受到严格限定的死囚。
这样的故事让我们思考,在类似的处境下,我们该做些什么?作为终有一死的人,在临终前的几个小时内我们应该做什么事,经历些什么或做哪些联想?回忆往昔,什么使我们开心快乐?什么又使我们悔恨不已?
有时我想,把每天都当作生命中的最后一天来边,也不失为一个极好的生活法则。这种态度会使人格外重视生命的价值。我们每天都应该以优雅的姿态,充沛的精力,抱着感恩之心来生活。但当时间以无休止的日,月和年在我们面前流逝时,我们却常常没有了这种子感觉。当然,也有人奉行“吃,喝,享受”的享乐主义信条,但绝大多数人还是会受到即将到来的死亡的惩罚。
在故事中,将死的主人公通常都在最后一刻因突降的幸运而获救,但他的价值观通常都会改变,他变得更加理解生命的意义及其永恒的精神价值。我们常常注意到,那些生活在或曾经生活在死亡阴影下的人无论做什么都会感到幸福。
然而,我们中的大多数人都把生命看成是理所当然的。我们知道有一天我们必将面对死亡,但总认为那一天还在遥远的将来。当我们身强体健之时,死亡简直不可想象,我们很少考虑到它。日子多得好像没有尽头。因此我们一味忙于琐事,几乎意识不到我们对待生活的冷漠态度。
我担心同样的冷漠也存在于我们对自己官能和意识的运用上。只有聋子才理解听力的重要,只有盲人才明白视觉的可贵,这尤其适用于那些成年后才失去视力或听力之苦的人很少充分利用这些宝贵的能力。他们的眼睛和耳朵模糊地感受着周围的景物与声音,心不在焉,也无所感激。这正好我们只有在失去后才懂得珍惜一样,我们只有在生病后才意识到健康的可贵。
我经常想,如果每个人在年轻的时候都有几天失时失聪,也不失为一件幸事。黑暗将使他更加感激光明,寂静将告诉他声音的美妙。
03 Companionship of Books
A man may usually be known by the books he reads as well as by the company he keeps; for there is a companionship of books as well as of men; and one should always live in the best company, whether it be of books or of men.
A good book may be among the best of friends. It is the same today that it always was, and it will never change. It is the most patient and cheerful of companions. It does not turn its back upon us in times of adversity or distress. It always receives us with the same kindness; amusing and instructing us in youth, and comforting and consoling us in age.
Men often discover their affinity to each other by the mutual love they have for a book just as two persons sometimes discover a friend by the admiration which both entertain for a third. There is an old proverb, ‘Love me, love my dog.” But there is more wisdom in this:” Love me, love my book.” The book is a truer and higher bond of union. Men can think, feel, and sympathize with each other through their favorite author. They live in him together, and he in them.
A good book is often the best urn of a life enshrining the best that life could think out; for the world of a man’s life is, for the most part, but the world of his thoughts. Thus the best books are treasuries of good words, the golden thoughts, which, remembered and cherished, become our constant companions and comforters.
Books possess an essence of immortality. They are by far the most lasting products of human effort. Temples and statues decay, but books survive. Time is of no account with great thoughts, which are as fresh today as when they first passed through their author’s minds, ages ago. What was then said and thought still speaks to us as vividly as ever from the printed page. The only effect of time have been to sift out the bad products; for nothing in literature can long survive e but what is really good.
Books introduce us into the best society; they bring us into the presence of the greatest minds that have ever lived. We hear what they said and did; we see the as if they were really alive; we sympathize with them, enjoy with them, grieve with them; their experience becomes ours, and we feel as if we were in a measure actors with them in the scenes which they describe.
The great and good do not die, even in this world. Embalmed in books, their spirits walk abroad. The book is a living voice. It is an intellect to which on still listens.
译文: 以书为伴(节选)
通常看一个读些什么书就可知道他的为人,就像看他同什么人交往就可知道他的为人一样,因为有人以人为伴,也有人以书为伴。无论是书友还是朋友,我们都应该以最好的为伴。
好书就像是你最好的朋友。它始终不渝,过去如此,现在如此,将来也永远不变。它是最有耐心,最令人愉悦的伴侣。在我们穷愁潦倒,临危遭难时,它也不会抛弃我们,对我们总是一如既往地亲切。在我们年轻时,好书陶冶我们的性情,增长我们的知识;到我们年老时,它又给我们以慰藉和勉励。
人们常常因为喜欢同一本书而结为知已,就像有时两个人因为敬慕同一个人而成为朋友一样。有句古谚说道:“爱屋及屋。”其实“爱我及书”这句话蕴涵更多的哲理。书是更为真诚而高尚的情谊纽带。人们可以通过共同喜爱的作家沟通思想,交流感情,彼此息息相通,并与自己喜欢的作家思想相通,情感相融。
好书常如最精美的宝器,珍藏着人生的思想的精华,因为人生的境界主要就在于其思想的境界。因此,最好的书是金玉良言和崇高思想的宝库,这些良言和思想若铭记于心并多加珍视,就会成为我们忠实的伴侣和永恒的慰藉。
书籍具有不朽的本质,是为人类努力创造的最为持久的成果。寺庙会倒坍,神像会朽烂,而书却经久长存。对于伟大的思想来说,时间是无关紧要的。多年前初次闪现于作者脑海的伟大思想今日依然清新如故。时间惟一的作用是淘汰不好的作品,因为只有真正的佳作才能经世长存。
书籍介绍我们与最优秀的人为伍,使我们置身于历代伟人巨匠之间,如闻其声,如观其行,如见其人,同他们情感交融,悲喜与共,感同身受。我们觉得自己仿佛在作者所描绘的舞台上和他们一起粉墨登场。
即使在人世间,伟大杰出的人物也永生不来。他们的精神被载入书册,传于四海。书是人生至今仍在聆听的智慧之声,永远充满着活力。
04 If I Rest, I Rust
The significant inscription found on an old key---“If I rest, I rust”---would be an excellent motto for those who are afflicted with the slightest bit of idleness. Even the most industrious person might adopt it with advantage to serve as a reminder that, if one allows his faculties to rest, like the iron in the unused key, they will soon show signs of rust and, ultimately, cannot do the work required of them.
Those who would attain the heights reached and kept by great men must keep their faculties polished by constant use, so that they may unlock the doors of knowledge, the gate that guard the entrances to the professions, to science, art, literature, agriculture---every department of human endeavor.
Industry keeps bright the key that opens the treasury of achievement. If Hugh Miller, after toiling all day in a quarry, had devoted his evenings to rest and recreation, he would never have become a famous geologist. The celebrated mathematician, Edmund Stone, would never have published a mathematical dictionary, never have found the key to science of mathematics, if he had given his spare moments to idleness, had the little Scotch lad, Ferguson, allowed the busy brain to go to sleep while he tended sheep on the hillside instead of calculating the position of the stars by a string of beads, he would never have become a famous astronomer.
Labor vanquishes all---not inconstant, spasmodic, or ill-directed labor; but faithful, unremitting, daily effort toward a well-directed purpose. Just as truly as eternal vigilance is the price of liberty, so is eternal industry the price of noble and enduring success.
04 译文: 如果我休息,我就会生锈
在一把旧钥匙上发现了一则意义深远的铭文——如果我休息,我就会生锈。对于那些懒散而烦恼的人来说,这将是至理名言。甚至最为勤勉的人也以此作为警示:如果一个人有才能而不用,就像废弃钥匙上的铁一样,这些才能就会很快生锈,并最终无法完成安排给自己的工作。
有些人想取得伟人所获得并保持的成就,他们就必须不断运用自身才能,以便开启知识的大门,即那些通往人类努力探求的各个领域的大门,这些领域包括各种职业:科学,艺术,文学,农业等。
勤奋使开启成功宝库的钥匙保持光亮。如果休•米勒在采石场劳作一天后,晚上的时光用来休息消遣的话,他就不会成为名垂青史的地质学家。著名数学家爱德蒙•斯通如果闲暇时无所事事,就不会出版数学词典,也不会发现开启数学之门的钥匙。如果苏格兰青年弗格森在山坡上放羊时,让他那思维活跃的大脑处于休息状态,而不是借助一串珠子计算星星的位置,他就不会成为著名的天文学家。
劳动征服一切。这里所指的劳动不是断断续续的,间歇性的或方向偏差的劳动,而是坚定的,不懈的,方向正确的每日劳动。正如要想拥有自由就要时刻保持警惕一样,要想取得伟大的,持久的成功,就必须坚持不懈地努力。
05 Ambition
It is not difficult to imagine a world short of ambition. It would probably be a kinder world: with out demands, without abrasions, without disappointments. People would have time for reflection. Such work as they did would not be for themselves but for the collectivity. Competition would never enter in. conflict would be eliminated, tension become a thing of the past. The stress of creation would be at an end. Art would no longer be troubling, but purely celebratory in its functions. Longevity would be increased, for fewer people would die of heart attack or stroke caused by tumultuous endeavor. Anxiety would be extinct. Time would stretch on and on, with ambition long departed from the human heart.
Ah, how unrelieved boring life would be!
There is a strong view that holds that success is a myth, and ambition therefore a sham. Does this mean that success does not really exist? That achievement is at bottom empty? That the efforts of men and women are of no significance alongside the force of movements and events now not all success, obviously, is worth esteeming, nor all ambition worth cultivating. Which are and which are not is something one soon enough learns on one’s own. But even the most cynical secretly admit that success exists; that achievement counts for a great deal; and that the true myth is that the actions of men and women are useless. To believe otherwise is to take on a point of view that is likely to be deranging. It is, in its implications, to remove all motives for competence, interest in attainment, and regard for posterity.
We do not choose to be born. We do not choose our parents. We do not choose our historical epoch, the country of our birth, or the immediate circumstances of our upbringing. We do not, most of us, choose to die; nor do we choose the time or conditions of our death. But within all this realm of choicelessness, we do choose how we shall live: courageously or in cowardice, honorably or dishonorably, with purpose or in drift. We decide what is important and what is trivial in life. We decide that what makes us significant is either what we do or what we refuse to do. But no matter how indifferent the universe may be to our choices and decisions, these choices and decisions are ours to make. We decide. We choose. And as we decide and choose, so are our lives formed. In the end, forming our own destiny is what ambition is about.
译文: 抱负
一个缺乏抱负的世界将会怎样,这不难想象。或许,这将是一个更为友善的世界:没有渴求,没有磨擦,没有失望。人们将有时间进行反思。他们所从事的工作将不是为了他们自身,而是为了整个集体。竞争永远不会介入;冲突将被消除。人们的紧张关系将成为过往云烟。创造的重压将得以终结。艺术将不再惹人费神,其功能将纯粹为了庆典。人的寿命将会更长,因为由激烈拼争引起的心脏病和中风所导致的死亡将越来越少。焦虑将会消失。时光流逝,抱负却早已远离人心。
啊,长此以往人生将变得多么乏味无聊!
有一种盛行的观点认为,成功是一种神话,因此抱负亦属虚幻。这是不是说实际上并不丰在成功?成就本身就是一场空?与诸多运动和事件的力量相比,男男女女的努力显得微不足?显然,并非所有的成功都值得景仰,也并非所有的抱负都值得追求。对值得和不值得的选择,一个人自然而然很快就能学会。但即使是最为愤世嫉俗的人暗地里也承认,成功确实存在,成就的意义举足轻重,而把世上男男女女的所作所为说成是徒劳无功才是真正的无稽之谈。认为成功不存在的观点很可能造成混乱。这种观点的本意是一笔勾销所有提高能力的动机,求取业绩的兴趣和对子孙后代的关注。
我们无法选择出生,无法选择父母,无法选择出生的历史时期与国家,或是成长的周遭环境。我们大多数人都无法选择死亡,无法选择死亡的时间或条件。但是在这些无法选择之中,我们的确可以选择自己的生活方式:是勇敢无畏还是胆小怯懦,是光明磊落还是厚颜无耻,是目标坚定还是随波逐流。我们决定生活中哪些至关重要,哪些微不足道。我们决定,用以显示我们自身重要性的,不是我们做了什么,就是我们拒绝做些什么。但是不论世界对我们所做的选择和决定有多么漠不关心,这些选择和决定终究是我们自己做出的。我们决定,我们选择。而当我们决定和选择时,我们的生活便得以形成。最终构筑我们命运的就是抱负之所在。
06 What I Have Lived For
Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. These passions, like great winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward course, over a deep ocean of anguish, reaching to the very verge of despair.
I have sought love, first, because it brings ecstasy---ecstasy so great that I would often have sacrificed all the rest of my life for a few hours for this joy. I have sought it, next, because it relieves loneliness---that terrible loneliness in which one shivering consciousness looks over the rim of the world into the cold unfathomable lifeless abyss. I have sought it, finally, because in the union of love I have seen, in a mystic miniature, the prefiguring vision of the heaven that saints and poets have imagined. This is what I sought, and though it might seem too good for human life, this is what---at last---I have found.
With equal passion I have sought knowledge. I have wished to understand the hearts of men. I have wished to know why the stars shine. And I have tried to apprehend the Pythagorean power by which number holds sway above the flux. A little of this, but not much, I have achieved.
Love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens. But always it brought me back to earth. Echoes of cries of pain reverberate in my heart. Children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors, helpless old people a hated burden to their sons, and the whole world of loneliness, poverty, and pain make a mockery of what human life should be. I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer.
This has been my life. I have found it worth living, and would gladly live it again if the chance were offered me.
译文: 我为何而生
我的一生被三种简单却又无比强烈的激情所控制:对爱的渴望,对知识的探索和对人类苦难难以抑制的屿。这些激情像狂风,把我恣情吹向四方,掠过苦痛的大海,迫使我濒临绝望的边缘。
我寻求爱,首先因为它使我心为之着迷,这种难以名状的美妙迷醉使我愿意用所有的余生去换取哪怕几个小时这样的幸福。我寻求爱,还因为它能缓解我心理上的孤独中,我感觉心灵的战栗,仿如站在世界的边缘而面前是冰冷,无底的死亡深渊。我寻求爱,因为在我所目睹的结合中,我仿佛看到了圣贤与诗人们所向往的天堂之景。这就是我所寻找的,虽然对人的一生而言似乎有些遥不可及,但至少是我用尽一生所领悟到的。
我用同样的激情去寻求知识。我希望能理解人类的心灵,希望能够知道群星闪烁的缘由。我试图领悟毕达哥拉斯所景仰的“数即万物”的思想。我已经悟出了其中的一点点道理,尽管并不是很多。
爱和知识,用它们的力量把人引向天堂。但是同情却总把人又拽回到尘世中来。痛苦的呼喊声回荡在我的内心。饥饿的孩子,受压迫的难民,贫穷和痛苦的世界,都是对人类所憧憬的美好生活的无情嘲弄。我渴望能够减少邪恶,但是我无能为力,我也难逃其折磨。
这就是我的一生。我已经找到它的价值。而且如果有机会,我很愿意能再活它一次。

There are those, of course, who would adopt the Epicurean motto of “Eat, drink, and be merry”. But most people would be chastened by the certainty of impending death. In stories the doomed hero is usually saved at the last minute by some stroke of fortune, but almost always his sense of values is changed. He becomes more appreciative of the meaning of life and its permanent spiritual values. It has often been noted that those who live, or have lived, in the shadow of death bring a mellow sweetness to everything they do. Most of us, however, take life for granted. We know that one day we must die, but usually we picture that day as far in the future. When we are in buoyant health, death is all but unimaginable. We seldom think of it. The days stretch out in an endless vista. So we go about our petty tasks, hardly aware of our listless attitude toward life. The same lethargy, I am afraid, characterizes the use of all our faculties and senses. Only the deaf appreciate hearing, only the blind realize the manifold blessings that lie in sight. Particularly does this observation apply to those who have lost sight and hearing in adult life. But those who have never suffered impairment of sight or hearing seldom make the fullest use of these blessed faculties. Their eyes and ears take in all sights and sounds hazily, without concentration and with little appreciation. It is the same old story of not being grateful for what we have until we lose it, of not being conscious of health until we are ill. I have often thought it would be a blessing if each human being were stricken blind and deaf for a few days at some time during his early adult life. Darkness would make him more appreciative of sight; silence would teach him the joys of sound. 译文: 我们都读过震撼人心的故事,故事中的主人公只能再活一段很有限的时光,有时长达一年,有时却短至一日。但我们总是想要知道,注定要离世人的会选择如何度过自己最后的时光。当然,我说的是那些有选择权利的自由人,而不是那些活动范围受到严格限定的死囚。 这样的故事让我们思考,在类似的处境下,我们该做些什么?作为终有一死的人,在临终前的几个小时内我们应该做什么事,经历些什么或做哪些联想?回忆往昔,什么使我们开心快乐?什么又使我们悔恨不已? 有时我想,把每天都当作生命中的最后一天来边,也不失为一个极好的生活法则。这种态度会使人格外重视生命的价值。我们每天都应该以优雅的姿态,充沛的精力,抱着感恩之心来生活。但当时间以无休止的日,月和年在我们面前流逝时,我们却常常没有了这种子感觉。当然,也有人奉行“吃,喝,享受”的享乐主义信条,但绝大多数人还是会受到即将到来的死亡的惩罚。 在故事中,将死的主人公通常都在最后一刻因突降的幸运而获救,但他的价值观通常都会改变,他变得更加理解生命的意义及其永恒的精神价值。我们常常注意到,那些生活在或曾经生活在死亡阴影下的人无论做什么都会感到幸福。 然而,我们中的大多数人都把生命看成是理所当然的。我们知道有一天我们必将面对死亡,但总认为那一天还在遥远的将来。当我们身强体健之时,死亡简直不可想象,我们很少考虑到它。日子多得好像没有尽头。因此我们一味忙于琐事,几乎意识不到我们对待生活的冷漠态度。 我担心同样的冷漠也存在于我们对自己官能和意识的运用上。只有聋子才理解听力的重要,只有盲人才明白视觉的可贵,这尤其适用于那些成年后才失去视力或听力之苦的人很少充分利用这些宝贵的能力。他们的眼睛和耳朵模糊地感受着周围的景物与声音,心不在焉,也无所感激。这正好我们只有在失去后才懂得珍惜一样,我们只有在生病后才意识到健康的可贵。 我经常想,如果每个人在年轻的时候都有几天失时失聪,也不失为一件幸事。黑暗将使他更加感激光明,寂静将告诉他声音的美妙。 第三篇:Companionship of Books 以书为伴(节选) Companionship of Books A man may usually be known by the books he reads as well as by the company he keeps; for there is a companionship of books as well as of men; and one should always live in the best company, whether it be of books or of men. A good book may be among the best of friends. It is the same today that it always was, and it will never change. It is the most patient and cheerful of companions. It does not turn its back upon us in times of adversity or distress. It always receives us with the same kindness; amusing and instructing us in youth, and comforting and consoling us in age. Men often discover their affinity to each other by the mutual love they have for a book just as two persons sometimes discover a friend by the admiration which both entertain for a third. There is an old proverb, ‘Love me, love my dog.” But there is more wisdom in this:” Love me, love my book.” The book is a truer and higher bond of union. Men can think, feel, and sympathize with each other through their favorite author. They live in him together, and he in them. A good book is often the best urn of a life enshrining the best that life could think out; for the world of a man’s life is, for the most part, but the world of his thoughts. Thus the best books are treasuries of good words, the golden thoughts, which, remembered and cherished, become our constant companions and comforters. Books possess an essence of immortality. They are by far the most lasting products of human effort. Temples and statues decay, but books survive. Time is of no account with great thoughts, which are as fresh today as when they first passed through their author’s minds, ages ago. What was then said and thought still speaks to us as vividly as ever from the printed page. The only effect of time have been to sift out the bad products; for nothing in literature can long survive e but what is really good. Books introduce us into the best society; they bring us into the presence of the greatest minds that have ever lived. We hear what they said and did; we see the as if they were really alive; we sympathize with them, enjoy with them, grieve with them; their experience becomes ours, and we feel as if we were in a measure actors with them in the scenes which they describe. The great and good do not die, even in this world. Embalmed in books, their spirits walk abroad. The book is a living voice. It is an intellect to which on still listens. 译文:通常看一个读些什么书就可知道他的为人,就像看他同什么人交往就可知道他的为人一样,因为有人以人为伴,也有人以书为伴。无论是书友还是朋友,我们都应该以最好的为伴。 好书就像是你最好的朋友。它始终不渝,过去如此,现在如此,将来也永远不变。它是最有耐心,最令人愉悦的伴侣。在我们穷愁潦倒,临危遭难时,它也不会抛弃我们,对我们总是一如既往地亲切。在我们年轻时,好书陶冶我们的性情,增长我们的知识;到我们年老时,它又给我们以慰藉和勉励。 人们常常因为喜欢同一本书而结为知已,就像有时两个人因为敬慕同一个人而成为朋友一样。有句古谚说道:“爱屋及屋。”其实“爱我及书”这句话蕴涵更多的哲理。书是更为真诚而高尚的情谊纽带。人们可以通过共同喜爱的作家沟通思想,交流感情,彼此息息相通,并与自己喜欢的作家思想相通,情感相融。 好书常如最精美的宝器,珍藏着人生的思想的精华,因为人生的境界主要就在于其思想的境界。因此,最好的书是金玉良言和崇高思想的宝库,这些良言和思想若铭记于心并多加珍视,就会成为我们忠实的伴侣和永恒的慰藉。 书籍具有不朽的本质,是为人类努力创造的最为持久的成果。寺庙会倒坍,神像会朽烂,而书却经久长存。对于伟大的思想来说,时间是无关紧要的。多年前初次闪现于作者脑海的伟大思想今日依然清新如故。时间惟一的作用是淘汰不好的作品,因为只有真正的佳作才能经世长存。 书籍介绍我们与最优秀的人为伍,使我们置身于历代伟人巨匠之间,如闻其声,如观其行,如见其人,同他们情感交融,悲喜与共,感同身受。我们觉得自己仿佛在作者所描绘的舞台上和他们一起粉墨登场。 即使在人世间,伟大杰出的人物也永生不来。他们的精神被载入书册,传于四海。书是人生至今仍在聆听的智慧之声,永远充满着活力。

I was just thinking why we are made to go to school and college and supposed to plete a particular course in a specific span of time. I mean why do I need 12 years of schooling? Why is it that everyone follows the unchallengeable cycle of Montessori-school-college-graduation-post graduation-work? Then a theory just seeped into my mind, following the electrifying whiz of a busy mosquito that fortably kissed my ears and buzzed away. Starting from school,we learn the alphabets, the words the sentence that follow. Sentences lead to lessons, lessons to chapters and chapters to a subject. Many subjects form an academic year's curriculum. Upon clearing the exams we step onto the next year of we did follow the entire procedure sub consciously and ceremoniously, we never learnt the moral of the unsaid fact. The fact is that school, college and other courses act as tool to achieve our goal and might dream of being a doctor, engineer, lawyer but without proper investment of time to gather intellectual content, our dreams are useless. Every action in life is to satisfy a specific purpose. Purpose or need initiates planning and action on the part of the doer. The person, who wants to acplish a specific goal, first chalks out plan. The plan is like an ideal curve. By being regular in his duties and responsibilities,he works towards his goal acplishment in short bursts. After every burst or period of time,he tries to match his practical curve followed to acplish the goal, with the ideal curve set in the process of planning. The closer the ideal and the practical curves are ,the more is the probability of the goal being achieved in the set time. In short we identify our goals ourselves,but planning of education system is just done by the education ministry of our are. Once we have identified our goals, we pursue specilized coursrs in the direction of our goals. This is done in a systematic manner, starting from the basics like schooling to major specialization like engineering. But many a times it so happens that we loose track and wander around trying to reach unreachable goals. Only realistic goals are reachable. Set achievable goals. After goal setting, debug it into *** all modules, which have to be achieved within certain time frames. Once all modules have been pleted, the integration of them all acplishes the set goal! 适合高中的英语短文:munication Skills munication has been the major ingredient for the up gradation of the apes into human beings. Before language and the science of semantics were developed, facial expressions and body movements were the most sought after means for munication. Slowly the language started shaping up and now we have countless thousand dialects. Language is a medium that binds all human beings. It is the unique form, which has been exploited and used to the maximum by us. But somewhere down the line, we used it only for the purpose of munication and not for enriching our knowledge and to increase our market value. You would be thinking what I am getting at? In the following few lines, I will clear all the question marks in your head. Tell me the number of times you have been engrossed in a talk or lecture given by someone? Maybe once or twice or maximum thrice. Now the point to ponder is what was the distinguishing feature of that cogent speaker that didn't make your eyelids heavy with sleep? He would have had the knack to maneuver all your thinking, listening and visual channels towards him. Closer observation would reveal that change of tone at the appropriate time, fluency in language, and proper translation of thoughts into words make his speech all the more appealing. He is able to give you what you want to hear and what he wanted to give the audience in terms of knowledge. And when this success ratio is unity, you never skip a word from the speaker. munication skills are an important forte and they add a very important dimension to your personality. When you municate clearly and openly, you always make your wants, needs and doubts obvious. This clarity is essential to market yourself and synchronizes yourself with other two-legged intellectuals like you. You may not be that well qualified, but with good munication skills you can crack your interview and you can sell yourself convincingly. You then don't try to fill in a vacancy in a pany but make a place for yourself. Some of the essential tips for munication include: Be clear, concise and straightforward. Keep your sentences short. This will avoid grammatical mistakes. Look into the eyes of the person you are speaking to. This gives a glimpse of your sincerity and dedication to the other person. Even if you slip up somewhere, maintain your calm, apologize and continue. Don't try to re *** yze such slip ups, because we wish to promote ourselves and not demote. So from now on municate clearly, properly and openly, as after all the world doesn't know what you need. Does it? 适合高中的英语短文:Different Strokes of Our Duties Life teaches us to live. To live, you have to exist. To exist, you should have a passport to this living world. Thanks to your parents, who brought you into this world. Parents have taken care of us and satisfied all our needs. They helped whenever we were hungry, afraid or iii. They were always there by you, whenever you needed them. You almost assyned that they would always be there for you and never thought of how your life would be without them. But as you grow up, age also catches up with your parents and they need your help and support. Man is a child first, after which he attains his youth. After youth he again goes through the second phase of childhood, also called as old age. This is the phase where everyone needs a cornfort of a sense of belonging and being taken care of. Wouldn't we all expect the same of security when we grow old? Even our parents are expecting us to be their caretaker, as they grow old. But they never make that obvious to us. They do their further duty by taking care of their grandchildren, paying e-bills, giving the clothes for laundry etc. Isn't it unfair on our part that we aren't giving them what they need the most? It is our prime duty to take the very best care of them. It's our pay back time. Let's give the same sense of emotional security, care and love to our parents in their old age.
英语背诵
学习英语 时,背诵是最有效的一种 方法 。但是背诵,并不是单纯的傻背,分为多种类型。那么接下来给大家分享一些关于英语背诵十大技巧,希望对大家有所帮助。
英语背诵十大技巧
1. 通过发音背单词
同学们要掌握单词拼写与发音之间的规律,发好每一个音标,读准每一个单词。还可以把包含同一元音的单词归为一类(如mistake, change, pain, gain, amazing…)集中操练,读起来朗朗上口,特别过瘾!通过发音背单词不但很快就能记住单词,更能练出地道发音!
2. 跟着录音背单词
导致中国人背单词失败的最根本原因就是:发音不过关,单词读不准。所以一定要跟着标准的录音背单词。
把音量开到最大,反复听录音并跟着大声朗读单词。这时候你的眼睛、耳朵、嘴巴全部用起来了,不断刺激大脑,印象也特别深刻!
听录音,模仿发音,唯一的目标就是告诉自己,发音要和录音要一样标准!
3. “三最”狂读背单词
“默默无闻”地背单词效果极其低下!一定要用 “三最法”狂读狂背每个单词。背单词的时候,一定要做到最大声、最清晰、最快速。
当你用“三最法”操练单词时,你的注意力会高度集中,记忆的效率会大大提高,你不仅记住了单词,还锻造了国际口腔肌肉!
4. 分门别类背单词
英语中有很多单词属于同一类别,可以把同一类别的单词集中起来一起操练,从而大大提高单词记忆的效率。
同学们可以自己动手,对本书的单词进行分门别类,抄在小纸条上或制成单词卡,然后集中轰炸、专门突破、分类记忆!
5. 单词家族背单词
英语中很多单词都有整个家族,名词、动词、形容词、副词,加上不同的前缀、后缀就有不同的词性变化、意思变化。
要想彻底掌握一个单词,我们要做的就是:整个家族一锅端!家族内所有的单词全部消灭!通过单词家族可以大大提升背单词的效率。
6. 零碎时间背单词
背单词不需要大段大段的整块时间。每天起床后、睡觉前、一日三餐前后、排队等车、上学放学路上、甚至上厕所的零碎时间都可以用来狂读狂背单词。
请随身携带一本书,一有时间就疯狂朗读书中的单词,随时随地疯狂操练,脱口而出!
7. 同义反义背单词
看到一个单词的时候,可以联想到它的 同义词 或 近义词 ,通过对比辨析,掌握它们的用法。同样,看到一个单词的时候,可以联想到它的 反义词 ,一正一反,成双成对,让你一石二鸟,一箭双雕!用这种对比法来记忆单词,印象会更加深刻!
8. 同声传译背单词
看着单词脱口而出它的中文意思,看着中文意思脱口而出这个单词。或者请你的同学说出单词,你立刻脱口而出中文意思;说单词的中文意思,你立刻脱口而出这个单词。
通过中英文快速互译的方法背单词,效果特别好!同时还可以锻炼你的口译能力。
9. 通过 句子 背单词
孤立地背单词只能是“背了记、忘了背、背了又忘”!所以,一定要通过句子背单词。在句子中单词才是有生命的单词,才能牢记单词的意思和用法,才能与之建立感情,才会让你刻骨铭心,永难忘怀!
更重要的是,通过脱口而出句子来背单词,你不但在积累单词量,更在积累句子量!句子量比单词量更重要!
10. 通过短文背单词
一篇短文里面包含了大量有用的单词和 短语 ,通过背诵短文可以大面积地消灭单词!而且,在短文中你可以牢牢记住单词的意思和用法。更重要的是,通过背诵短文你能够大段大段地讲英语了,这才是我们学习英语的最终目的。
如何背英语课文效率高
英语课文如果想要背诵,死记硬背肯定是是行不通的,特别是英语成绩不是很好的同学,如果你只是机械的背英语课文,不知道它说的是什么意思,你现在是背下来了,但是过了几天,你可能就又忘记了,我们背语文课文的时候,你不理解,能够记住这篇 文章 的时间也很短。
所以英语课文一定要先把每个单词翻译出来,知道是什么意思,然后整篇的去理解,这样你把这篇英语课文背下来,记忆的时间也会很长。
有些 英语单词 我们可能读的不是很标准,所以这个时候,我们可以先把这篇课文听一遍,知道每个单词怎么读,这对比背英语课文帮助也很大,不要着急把整篇英语课文全部被背下来,背课文本身就是很枯燥的,大部分同学都是不愿意背英语课文的,但是一旦你找到方法,英语课文还是很好背的。
总记不住单词怎么办
动画记单词
书本对于正处于爱玩爱闹年龄的孩子来说是很无聊的,但如果所有的单词都变得生动立体的话,记忆单词的效率就会大大提高,这就是用动画记忆单词的好处。但是并不是所有的动画都适合孩子学习单词,有几点是必须注意的!
1. 选择原版动画,不要选择翻译电影,这样可以让孩子们接触到原汁原味的口音。
2. 选择具有鲜明主题、关键词重复出现的动画。例如,在《功夫熊猫》中,“master”和“kungfu”这两个英文单词经常出现,这将有利于孩子的记忆。
3. 在题材的选择上,尽量贴近日常生活。例如,《小猪佩奇》讲述了佩奇一家的日常生活,这是一个很好的学习材料。
4. 多次反复看。看一遍其实是达不到学习效果的,要适当地多看几遍,把知识点、要点尽量掌握。家长也可以陪孩子一起观看,在适当的时候启发孩子,一起聊聊剧情,帮助孩子记忆。
游戏记单词
除了动画,游戏也是记忆单词的好方法。寓教于乐,在享受乐趣的同时还能轻松记住单词。
1. 单词罐
准备一个空罐,放入所写单词的字条,每天早晨或固定时间,让孩子从单词罐中抽出一张字条,让孩子说出该单词的同义词、反义词、派生词前缀的衍生词,或用该单词 造句 ,又或者说出该单词的几种不同意思。家长也可以与孩子进行游戏,看谁说出的意思更多,以激发孩子的学习兴趣。
2. 单词墙
单词墙是美国学生常用的一种方法,操作起来也很简单:将26个英语字母贴在墙壁上,注意用不同颜色的纸,以更清晰地区分,按A-Z的顺序进行粘贴。
以后孩子要是碰到不认识的字就可以写在相应的字母下面,再次遇上的时候可以去查询,或者每天花一定的时间去回顾重温。长此以往,单词墙就成了孩子们的小词典。

英文单词是由字母组成的,因此在记忆单词时,要利用自然拼音的知识,并且按照音节对单词进行划分。这样单词的记忆保证了书写的正确,也保证了读音的标准,摆脱了读音受汉语的影响。下面由我为大家整理的关于英语单词背诵方法的内容,希望大家喜欢。
十三种简单又有效的英语单词背诵方法
一、运用读音规则记忆法
英语是拼音文字,根据英语这一特点,使语音与单词中的字母有机的结合,以增强单词的记忆。就是利用英语国际音标来识记单词。国际音标是标识标记英语语音的符号系统。如果熟悉并掌握国际音标及规则字母、字母组合的发音,就可以根据音标来直接拼写英语单词,尤其是一些比较长又难于识记的单词.例如:pronunciation (n. 发音),就可以根据其音标来正确书写单词。单词的读音与字母及其组合的发音之间又有着密切的联系。比如:cow,how,now 等词中的字母组合ow 都发/au/ 这个音;cake,these,five,note 等词中的元音字母都发该字母名称音等。对于一些长串字母组成的单词,可采用按读音分节的方法进行记忆。如:computer可分为com/k? m/、pu/pju:/、ter/t? /三部分,important可分为im/im/、por/p /、tant/t ?nt/三个部分。英语单词之间有时候读音完全相同或极为相似,这样一来,我们可以通过比较、观察,找出它们的同异之处,来进一步加深印象,增强记忆效果。例如:/tu:/-two, too /si:/-sea, see /mi:t/ -meet, meat /f :/-for, four/raIt/-right, write英语中有些单词的读音被直接替换成了汉语词汇,这是因为起先在汉语中还没有跟这个单词相对应的词汇,掌握音译词后,我们就很快根据读音记住这个单词了。例如: tank坦克,jeep吉普,Changjing长江,jacket夹克衫,New York纽约。因此,教师必须帮助学生详细地总结、熟记和使用字母及字母组合的发音规则,学生一旦掌握了这个识记单词的方法,记单词时就不需要一个字母一个字母地去死记硬背。就可以节约大量的记词时间,而且效果较为持久,既增强了兴趣、信心,又增加了成功感,为进一步学习英语打下坚实基础。
二、字母组合变化记忆法
英语单词中以某个单词为基础,加、减、换、调一个字母就成了另一个新单词。具体方法如下:前面加字母,例如:is-his,ear-near / hear,read-bread。后面加字母,例如:hear-heart,you-your,plane-planet。中间加字母,例如:though-through,tree-three,for-four。 减字母,例如:she-he,close-lose,start-star。换字母,例如:book-look / cook,cake-lake / wake / make / take。调字母(即改变字母顺序),例如:blow-bowl,sing-sign,from-form。另外可以简化单词的拼写,重新组合,有时我们需要把一个古怪而难记的单词重新组合,简化记忆程序, 从而使它变得有趣、生动。如:把“sign”(记号)中的“ign”变成“ing”,重新组合成“sing”(唱歌),然后用“sing”记住“sign”;把“ear”(耳朵)中的“e”放在“ar”后,重新组合成“are”(是),然后用“are”记住“ear”;把“leak”(泄漏)中的“e”放在“k”后,重新组合成“lake”(湖),然后用“lake”记住“leak”。
三、比较记忆法
比较是人们认识客观世界的重要手段,有比较才有鉴别,不经过比较就很难弄清事物的相互关系。这里介绍的是对相似而又不同的单词进行对比分析,弄清它们的异同以进行记忆的方法。如:改变一个元音的词就能变换出不同的词:ball,bell,bill;改变一个辅音的词就能变换出不同的词:fight,light,might,night,right,sight,tight;音同而形义不同的词:sun 和son,too和two ;音形相同而意义不同:light(光)和 light(轻);义相同: also/too/either, ago/before/past, each/every/all, because/as/for;义相反: yes/no, old/new, right/wrong, up/down, young/old等等。
四、联想记忆法
苏联著名生理学家巴甫洛夫指出:“记忆要依靠联想,而联想则是新旧知识建立联系的产物。”联想是记忆的基础。联想记忆单词就是充分运用发散思维展开自己的想象力,由此及彼、由点到面,由一个单词尽可能多地联系到与它相关的各种形式、结构及用法等。使所要记忆的英语单词生动、形象和系统化,使新词和旧词之间建立一种荒诞夸张、稀奇古怪、难合情理的联系,令人终生难忘,从而达到以旧带新、快速记忆之目的。例如:生词bake(vt. 烘、烤)利用联想记忆,在湖边(lake)做(make)蛋糕(cake)并烘( bake);打球时联想到:ball,( play ) basketball,( play ) football,playground等等;吃饭时联想到:dining - room,( have ) breakfast,( have ) lunch等等;睡觉时联想到:bed,bedroom,go to bed,sleep,go to sleep,fall asleep等等。这样日积月累、持之以恒,就可以积少成多,从而做到薄积而厚发。
五、分类记忆法
英语词汇极其丰富,如果能把单词分门别类地进行记忆,是大有好处的。分类的方法因人而异,因爱好而异,灵活多样。按其性质,用途等来分类,使之条理化、系统化,就容易巩固,记忆,如按颜色、学习用品、交通工具、食品、生活用品等种类归纳,还可以按科目名称、时间、数字、季节、动植物、职业名称、场所地点名称图名等归纳分类等。采用归类的方法。在学习一个新单词时,可一并学习与之相关的同类词。例如时间的分类如下:
1. Time: century, year, season, month, week, day, night, hour, quarter, minute, second.
2. Seasons: spring, summer, autumn, winter.
3. Months: January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December.
4. Week: Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday.
5. Days: the day before yesterday, yesterday, today, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow.
6. day and night: dawn, morning, noon, afternoon, evening, mid-night.
六、重复记忆法
重复能深化记忆的“痕迹”。俗话说“一回生,二回熟,三回成师傅”,但这种重复不是简单的,机械的往复,而是有适当的间隔,休息,根据艾宾浩斯的遗忘曲线,人的遗忘从识记后便开始,先快后慢。因此,复习的时间间隔就应是先短后长。应在第一次记忆后隔二十分钟记一次,第二天再记第三次,一周后再记第四次,一个月以后记忆第五次,这样进行多次的重复不但能形成长时间的记忆而且效果较好。我曾经听到过这样一个例子:如果你盯着一个人连续看三个小时,但以后再也看不到他了,那么也许一两个月后你就把他的长相给忘了,但是如果你把这三个小时分配到许多天中,每天只看那个人一两分钟,这样下去,你就一辈子都不会忘记他的长相。具体做法就是先规定自己一天背的词汇的数量,然后在一天中每隔一段时间把这些词汇通背一遍,相隔的时间不宜太短,背熟后隔几天后再把这些背过一遍。如此循环下去,会收到很好的记忆效果。这种方法适合于时间比较充沛,可以专门用一段时间来学英语的人。要有毅力的人才能坚持背下去。
七、语境记忆法
记忆英语单词与环境有关。记忆和理解英语单词的时候,我们要利用“环境因素”的“暗示”,随后又在不断地学习和应用过程中逐步摆脱这些“环境因素”的“暗示”,达到抽象的记忆和理解。而且即使已经记住的生词,也只是在特定的环境里才知道其意义,环境一变,似乎又成了生词。比方说,从某一课里学到了一个生词,而且确实记住了,如果把它放到另一新课程,可能会觉得陌生。因此,要想熟练地掌握英语单词,还必须要在各种语境下记忆。不管主观上是否意识到这一点,这是我们每个人记忆英语单词时实际上走的一条曲折的路,千万不能因短期内记不住而灰心丧气。例如:“get away”作“离开、滚开”解,“get through”作“到达、打通”解,“get up”作“起床、登上”解等。脑子里有了这么多对于get这个单词意义的理解时,别人猛一问get这个英语单词何意时,还不一定马上回答出来。但是这个单词与其它单词组合在一起,在不同语境里出现时,却都能随机应变地正确解释它。只有到了这种境界,才能说明对英语单词意义的理解比较广泛了,英语水平提高了。
八、图表记忆法
利用图表法可以把零星、分散的材料组织起来,从整体记忆。图表可使学习者迅速发现各个记忆之间的异同,呈现它们之间的内在联系。采取图表记忆有助于对识记信息有规律地存储并快捷地提取。如一些表示空间概念的介词,单从汉语翻译的内容来理解,往往会弄错或混淆,但如果用图表示,则很容易理解和记忆,如:under/beneath, on/over/above, across/through, in/on/to the south, in/into等等;英语中有些内容比较适合制成表格,这样便于理解,给学生留下的印象更深刻,如人称代词主格、宾格、形容词性的物主代词、名词性的物主代词和反身代词表:。
九、对称图像思维记忆
英语单词中常常会出现一些对称现象,这简直同建筑物毫无两样了。了解这一点,我们就可以把单词中某些对称性的部分单独提出来,作为一个整体图像进行记忆,这样就可以变得轻松、有趣。例如:tomorrow明天“orro”;cabbage洋白菜“abba”;tomato西红柿“to...to“;cotton棉花“otto”;chuch教堂“ch...ch”;museum博物馆“mu...um”;common通常的“ommo”;follow跟随“ollo”等。
十、象形记忆法
象形词是就是人们利用单词整体或局部结构的象形性(形状)、特征、动作而创造出来的。在记忆过程中尽量运用直观形象和形象思维,以提高记忆效果。这类词在英语中占有重要地位,只要我们抓住这一特点,记忆单词就容易多了,英语中象形词很多,却很少被人们发现。例如: eye see meet sleep (e、e代表两只眼睛);bed(b、d代表前后床头);cup(u为杯子状);banana(a代表香蕉的瓣,n代表连接的把);rabbit(b、b为两只长耳朵)等。
十一、感官记忆法
感官记忆法是把耳、口、眼、手调动起来,把听、说、读、写统一起来,尽可能地用多个感官, 达到记忆目的的方法,这样做的好处是沟通大脑皮层各部分之间的联系,反复运动使相关信息反复刺激大脑中各个相应的神精中枢,加深了大脑皮层上的记忆痕迹,可以有效提高记忆效果。也可以注意我们日常生活中出现的英语,如电器设备上的英语,各种警示语、标语等,还可以聆听外文歌曲,欣赏国外影视……耳濡目染,日积月累,反复回想,自然牢记。例:有些人整天把奔腾挂在嘴边,却不知道pent的词根含义,只知道联想、方正,不知道legend, founder,其实只要稍微留心,品牌电池的外包装上有battery(电池)字样,洗发精瓶外有shampoo(洗发水)字样,某些药品包装盒上的OTC(Over the Counter,非处方药)字样等。教师在授课过程中,应适当渗透相关知识,教育学生勤观察,多积累。做个有心人。
十二、游戏记忆法
在小学阶段,英语单词的记忆是难点。在单词记忆时应引入各种游戏,不仅能有效地调节英语学习的气氛,激发学生的学习兴趣,还能促使学生以积极的心态,在活动中主动地记忆单词。
1. 单词接龙游戏:多人合作,首先由任一个学生说出一个单词,下一个学生说出的单词的第一个字母必须是上一个学生所说单词的尾字母,如此循环下去,不能重复同一个词,如有人在规定的时间内未说出单词,则被淘汰,剩下的学生继续游戏,谁坚持到最后谁就是获胜者。如:car—read—do—one—eat—ten—name-- evening—game—English …
2.拆词游戏:如多变的天气,用weather这七个字母能拼出多少个学过的单词?we/eat/at/tea/the/he/her/here/there/tree /are/where/hear/heart/what/water … ;
3.改头换面游戏:即在一个单词中增加、减少或改变一个字母使之成为一个新词。如:of—off/if, us—as/bus, know--now/known/knew, hair—chair/air, look—book/cook...
十三、卡片记忆法
卡片记忆,为了充分利用组块原理扩大短时记忆容量,就是让学生自制词汇卡片,写上单词的词形、词性、词义、音标、搭配等,看一面,尝试着记忆另一面。随身携带,随时随地进行词汇记忆。这种方法的特点是简单实用且便于携带,不受时间和空间的限制,可随时随地用。这样不仅可以寓学于乐,而且还可以大大提高对闲暇零星时间的合理有效利用。这样能有效地掌握了大量生词,并形成长时记忆。
背诵英语单词的误区
误区1:企图找到一个好的背诵方法,让自己短时间攻克单词关。
其实上面讲述的各种记忆方法,只适用一部分单词。有的单词词根词缀记忆好用,有的看单词的外观,然后发挥你的形象思维就记下了,有的单词通过把读音汉化就过目不忘。所以千万不要迷信某一种记忆方法。一些单词背诵班,都会结合多种记忆法,并根据孩子的反馈情况,变换方法。尤其像小学低年级来说,学习的单词还属于比较基本、简单的,趣味性的背诵单词方法更受用一些。对于属于较高年级的小学生来说,要增加分类记忆法、结构法等其他方法的使用。
误区2、不结合语境背单词
很多学生都会拿一本单词书,每天去背,而不是结合各种语境。所以在做阅读时候,看到单词觉得眼熟可是结合语境却不懂,这也容易让学生产生挫败感。
误区3、背诵单词与其他英语学习项目分开
很多学生都将单词与听力、阅读、作文等英语学习项目分开。单词是基础,即使背诵好多遍,如果不能实际运用,时间一长还是会忘记,也就是没有真正掌握。对于小学生来说,需要掌握的词汇并不多,建议家长可以让孩子用所学单词造简单句。
