外语学习攻略:怎样让沉浸式学习最大化

编辑: 逍遥路 关键词: 高中英语 来源: 高中学习网


      学习新语言的学生往往分为两类:一类是从零开始学习一门新语言的人,或是与水平相当的人一起提升熟练度;另一类是寻求体验并把语言学习作为激励的人。明了自己想从这段经历中获得什么,这将帮助你应该做出什么样的决定,比如说是选择为期一个月的欧洲之旅,还是选择到非洲这样更有异国情调的地方来一次短期旅游。


      More Than Just Language Lessons

      不仅仅是语言课程

      “A culturally immersive program, where it is not possible to speak English is the only way to learn a new language, in my opinion,” says Irene Lane, founder of the eco-adventure company Greenloons.

      生态探险公司Greenloons的创始人艾琳-莱恩说:“我的观点是,把一个人放在说不了英语的文化沉浸式项目里,这是学习新语言的唯一方法。”

      And the lessons learned aren’t just linguistic. Observing family life, going to the local market, interacting with shopkeepers help to round out and deepen the overall experience. For travelers with less time, there are great “quickie” language-learning options, like lessons in conversational Hebrew at a Tel Aviv coffee house or privates lessons in business Spanish at the San Miguel language academy, Academia Hispano Americana.

      学到的不仅仅是语言。观察家庭生活、到当地市场去、和店主交流,这些将帮助你完善和加深整个体验。对于只有短暂时间旅行的人来说,这些都算是不错的语言“速成”学习选择,像在特拉维夫咖啡馆里的希伯来语对话交流,或在圣米格尔语言学院的商务西班牙语私人课程。

      Maximize Your Immersion

      让你的沉浸式学习最大化

      Your greatest souvenir from a language-learning adventure will be the ability to communicate in a foreign tongue. But you're also likely to make lasting friendships and find inspiration for future international escapes. Following these suggestions can help you get even more out of your once-in-a-lifetime experience.

      在语言学习的经历中,你得到的最大礼物是用外国语进行沟通的能力。此外你还能建立一段长久的友谊,并找到在未来全球范围内语言沉浸学习的灵感。遵循以下建议,你将从人生中仅此一次的经历中受益更多。

      1. Practice, practice, practice

      练习,练习,再练习

      Don’t be afraid to ask the locals to speak with you. Getting involved in a community project when time allows, so that the can refine your skills as well as teach your native language.

      不要害怕,勇敢地邀请当地人和你荻花。如果时间允许,要参与到社区项目中,这样你不仅可以教授他们你的母语,而且你还改进了你的技能。

      2. Journal your progress

      记录进步

      Document your adventure with photographs and add captions in your new language. The more you learn, the more fun your story will become to write. While an eight- to 10-day vacation won’t result in fluency, your skills -- and confidence -- should rise dramatically.

      用图片记录你的经历,用你新学到的语言来备注标题。你学的越多,你写的故事就越有趣。虽然在8到10天的假期里你不能练就流利的口语,但你的技能(和信心)会得到极大的提升。

      3. Be patient with yourself

      要有耐心

      Don’t be discouraged if you have trouble communicating. Ask people to speak more slowly if you are feeling overwhelmed. (That’s a great phrase to learn right away, by the way.) Set reasonable goals and be sure to allow time to enjoy the whole experience. You made a conscious decision to take a learning journey, so go easy on yourself.

      如果在沟通上遇到困难,不要灰心。如果你感到不知所措,就请对方说得慢一点(顺便说一句,这是一条要马上学习的极好表达用语)。设立合理的目标,一定要有时间享受整个过程。你做出了要参加学习旅程的慎重决定,所以慢慢来。

      4. Keep it going

      保持状态

      Hatch a plan to keep or expand your skills once you’re home. Join a local language club, take an evening course, find a native speaker, or make a habit of watching films or subscribing to a magazine in your “new” language.

      等你回到家,就制定一个计划来保持或拓展你的技能。加入当地的语言俱乐部,参加夜校课程,找一个以该语言为母语的人,培养看电影的习惯,或订阅一份“新”语言的杂志。
