0. Introduction
This article is for some recent learning experience, their insights and learning content recorded and collated and integrated. The main problem is for us to remember is that the amount of "rules" thinking, rather than grammatical "rules."
1. Net Red English classes
Chinese network in a red English teacher curriculum, teacher of English grammar is not mentioned in the law, you carry so many laws, one to remember, and secondly, will not use. There is a reason, and to this end he cited several examples.
1.1 Examples of a verb + to do or + doing.
We learned earlier to doindicated that purpose, but there are some fixed match. For example enjoy doing sth, plan to do sth. There to doand doingat all times can be used, for example, forget to do sthand forget doing sth. If fixed with a lot of back, it is certainly easy to forget. And when we fill in the blank, we want to express what is not, and has been constantly remember various syntax match. This is bound to be tired and do not upgrade themselves.
If we know to do mean things are going to do, but doing sth itself is one thing , we can naturally distinguish between the two, it is possible to know why some words only with doing( enjoy doing sthI like (to do something ), rather than I like to go do something (strange)), while others are just as forget to take your keys.(I forgot to take your keys , I remember, and one will take), forget taking your keys.(I forgot to take your keys up , the band did not bring.)
1.2 Examples of the dicarboxylic adjective + noun N *
If there is more than a noun adjective to describe it, the order of adjectives how is it? If we do not know, then how to sort? A good order once remembered that the "US small round old yellow, wooden French study." Modeled on this, we can understand some of the words to describe the order, such as rabbits. So if we adjectives it is not so simple, or not very easy to describe it?
Their prey is very elusive, fast-swimming fish.
Why elusive(elusive) in fast-swimming(swim faster) in front of it? If we know the order of adjectives are the following three principles in line with human cognition 3, then we can clearly understand why the case.
- Important first described, and then describe minor
- To describe subjective, objective description again
- Specifically described first, and then the abstract description
We then interpret what this law a few rules just, United States (feeling) is important, specific, subjective, study (purpose) is secondary, abstract and objective. Look at specific examples for prey(game), it elusiveis important, specific, subjective, and fast-swimmingis secondary, abstract and objective. This is not simple? Tracing the source, I understand why that would be able to do more with less.
Examples of three attributive clause 1.3
Is divided into two kinds of attributive clause restrictive attributive attributive and non-limiting, it is used to modify a noun clause. So what is the difference between them yes. Formally speaking without a comma between restrictive attributive clause main clause and the subordinate clause, words of relations that, rather than the usually separated by commas restrictive attributive clause and the main clause, general use which, do not that. From the meaning of terms used to define the meaning of attributive clause antecedent modified, restrictions and identification of non-restrictive attributive clause is used to supplement the antecedent play the role.
So in fact there is a rule that the non-restrictive attributive clause can be omitted without affecting the semantic representation. Then there is a problem is if you can omit it, why should we write it? The reason is that restrictive attributive clause main function is to inform, notify ( inform), let you know more details of the more direct goals. And not restrictive attributive clause aims to imply ( imply), it is mainly used to increase emotional and subjective opinions on the target . If so, we should know that the use of restrictive attributive clause or a non-restrictive attributive clause. There is a very good example:
I have a sister who is a doctor.I have a doctor's sister. (More than one sister)
I have a sister, who is a doctor.I have a sister, she is a doctor. (Only one sister)
In the final analysis ( what it boils down to is) is to clarify the meaning of the text itself, and then gradually up the entire meaning of the sentence, in line with the law of human cognition, rather than grammar rules, it will allow us to really understand English.
2. Ted English class
Ted in a speech I recently heard of, the English-speaking presenters explained how they can better oral expression. She said that the proportion of the world's English-speaking people and non-English-speaking people is 1: 5. Moreover, in the conversation between people, 96% of the dialogue are non-native speakers of English who participate. Therefore, a lot of people like us, are not really 100% fit and English. However, these conversations are still valid, clear. She cited the example of her student learning English, examples of her daughter studying piano, told us that the expression is spoken want to better focus on the current task in itself, rather than some of the old rules (exchanges of thinking, rather than grammar The problem). They'll understand what you mean, solve each other's problems, it is the purpose of our communication.
Therefore, when talking, we must first sense of balance, because of the tension that might make you remember hearing decline, forget words, and stiff. Hearing memory decline will make you remember what you're talking objects that because in your head only of how to reply. The tension can make you forget you ever remember a word, so that the expression unclear. Pronunciation stiff body will let you know, trembling and even make a sound. These will make your oral expression greatly reduced.
This is talking about the same as the one teacher to focus on the problem we have to solve our intention to express our thoughts is the ultimate goal. Rather than the rules.
Here I identify with, reminds me of my childhood, learning Chinese chess. I do not think I really like to play Chinese chess, but my father has asked me to learn next. When I play against people than myself and I was not observing the situation should be how the next, then how the next. But the next step to ask my father, the next wrong? Dad did not tell me nothing. Finally, I usually lose, because I do not know what I will do, what is my purpose?
In contrast now, when we learn to play our favorite game (Cross Fire, League of Legends, king of glory and even peace elite), we have to operate, and there is no rigid constraints, like how to play on how to play. How did we do? We focus on the game itself. Usually work as a team, we will not ask collaborators constraints of some operations.
"I have a drink Xuejian nothing wrong with it?"
"Should I take-up?"
"What am I M16A4 or AKM?"
These words are difficult to answer, because these problems have constrained context, and the real source of answers from "Are These operations allow you to implement better development? Can improve the current situation?" If the answer is yes, then do it. Although the final to do well, others do not blame you. And you can slowly learn from this how to operate, which is active, memorable learning process.
3. personal teacher lesson
I had borrowed a valuable opportunity to ask questions on "Learning English is learning culture." The statement, asked another Chinese American teacher from New York.
Some teachers often tell us, when we learn English, we are to learn from their culture. And we all know that there are some differences in Chinese culture and American culture, then how do we deal with the differences between them? ( We have learned "learn English is to learn its culture. As we know, the culture between Chinese and English is different, so how you deal with the difference between them?")
I think the teacher to answer better. He acknowledged that English and Chinese culture is different. Chinese abstract and content comparison, usually do not need to change how many will be able to express another meaning. While English is more specific, if you want a different expression, it must have a real job changes. Mistakes are common, but not terrible. In exchange we occasionally make mistakes, those from our previous habits. We do not have to remember these regular sequence down. A good way is to try to say, to write it down, do not write too much, a few sentences on the line. In this way, when we are wrong, we will be able to see it and correct it. Therefore, the error visualization is a good idea.
Yes, the matter later in the learning process a relatively important to note that, when we write English papers, we need to do is to write your complete sentence, so to be able to read between the lines ( between the linesour thoughts and feelings will be injected) which allows us to know what we want to express? What readers will read.
Although machine translation has reached a point where you can use, but it does not replace you express your emotions and your intentions. Can be used as an auxiliary tool, do not place themselves under machine translation, so you will never get a promotion, at least, but you're better than machine translation, but also can not express yourself.
summary
Return more than three scenes, in fact, the last is the same thing, tell us, language is the expression of thoughts and feelings, even if it has a rule which is derived from the thinking, not the syntax itself. If you want to better enhance their English ability, then the best is to make English really become a part of your body, rather than the foreign thing. (Think about our hometown dialect and Mandarin seamless switching it, it is because the dialect and Mandarin are expressing ourselves)
