【多益滿分的意義和關鍵方法】
我的多益聽說讀寫都考了滿分。
妙的是,我常常在教課或演講的時候忘了這件事,而窗口都會特別跟學員強調,我才想到我忘了講
請別誤會,我絕對不是覺得「這沒什麼」!曾經英文爆爛的我非常看重這些年來努力的成果
而是覺得好像不用一直強調這件事情,因為英文已經變成我能夠運用自如的語言,而我每天還是持續學習這個我永遠的外語,用中英雙語形塑我接觸的世界
這很重要,因為這就是學英文對我的意義啊!
我想要順暢自在用雙語認識這世界,並表情達意
比起分數,更重要的是你為何學英文。
(不要說是為了達標,那不是真正的 why!)
這篇文章,希望你先想清楚學英文的意義和動機,讓這動機驅使你學習,這比只讀底下的關鍵方法更能讓你持續更新自己,而且感到充實愉快
現在,來分享聽力閱讀滿分的關鍵方法,這跟學好英文的方法一致
#1基礎關鍵:培養視覺和聽覺認字能力,並認識文法
#2聽力關鍵:抓意思,而不是抓字
#3閱讀關鍵:捨得跳過雜訊,才讀得快

#1基礎關鍵:培養視覺和聽覺認字能力,並認識文法
不要以為是老生常談。太多人以為K單字表就叫做學單字,錯大了。真的眼睛和耳朵認得單字才派得上用場。那要丟掉單字表嗎?不用喔,學到一個階段後可以用單字表來檢視該會的字是不是都會了,但不該本末倒置由單字表開始!
好的單字學習方法是有情境和前後文的情況,否則 request 跟 require 單字表上都寫「要求」,contain 和 include 都是「包含」
我造幾句
I requested a taxi. 我叫了計程車
It requires some adjustments. (文件)需要些調整
The drink contains sugar. 這飲料含糖
Include him on the list. 把他加到名單裡
這些句子在生活中都會用到對吧?
融入生活的學習讓你更好記憶,事半功倍
應該平常就選自己有興趣的英文來讀來聽,遇到生字的時候再查詢並學起來,這樣你可能還會記得在什麼情況學到單字的,這些字才是活的
眼睛認得以外,很多人學的單字卻無聲。聽到時完全陌生,那就是太少聽了。說到這我一定要推薦朗文線上字典,例句都可以聽!每句都點來聽聽,並跟著讀,單字才不會每每查了就忘
文法則是幫助自己理解的好幫手,是必修的內功。花點時間到書店翻翻,翻到自己不熟的文法,例如假設語氣,讀起來覺得好懂,那本就適合你。如果個人學習欠缺動力,或是想要老師燈塔指引,更有效率學習,請報名補習班(私心大推 Leeds Mayi 的文法班)
#2聽力關鍵:抓意思,而不是抓字
首先,請帶著目標來聽聽力,而不要抱持看電視的心情等聲音過了再反應,因為只播放一遍,要非常專心,過了就只能靠自己記憶回放,而且前兩大題都是沒選項看,要直接決定劃卡的
第一大題看到圖就要有預期,聽符合的描述就把筆尖停在選項上,繼續聽沒有更好選項,就劃好劃滿
第二大題一樣沒選項看,而題本不能劃記,但可以鉛筆尖懸在答案卡選項上,跟第一大題一樣,停留在可能選項上,聽沒更好的就劃卡
第三第四大題則是要搶快先讀文字,文字都不會很長,讀了就要在心裡反推等一下會講什麼,那些選項才會合理,這樣實際聽的時候才不會全都是未預期的新資訊
整體來說,帶著預期而聽,更可以專心聽題目和自己要找的「意思」,是 meaning-based 的理解,而不是一個一個字抓,word-based,那只要遇到生字就掛了,而且會節節敗退,生活中的英文溝通也一模一樣
#3閱讀關鍵:捨得跳過雜訊,才讀得快
有單字和文法基礎,閱讀的基本分一定有,要進步的關鍵絕對是速度!75分鐘要寫完100題,本身就是刻意的設計,其實就是要求閱讀的速度。所以訣竅來了:做好配速。前面46題一定要衝刺,不然後面54題實在寫不完
寫閱讀的時候完全不能悠哉,要一直在心裡催促自己快快快,果決不猶豫,通常會猶豫的題目,猶豫再久還是不會,不如果斷吧!快去別題把分數拿下來
接下來的29題單篇閱讀字開始多,不能慌,因為比起後面已經很單純,還是要保持加速狀態。最後25題超花時間!跳來跳去找線索的多篇閱讀,看剩餘時間決定是否用一般速度讀,由答案選項開始讀,到可能有所需資訊的地方找線索,真的還是來不及就猜好猜滿吧
整體來說,我遇到太多學生不敢跳過段落,都要把每個字讀過去,那就不可能提升速度。生活和考試一樣,寧願選擇對的地方投入心力,也不要浪費時間在不會有結果的地方。現在你知道高速閱讀者的秘密了,不是速讀,而是挑重點讀,不讀雜訊

這篇文章很長,可以讀到這邊的你真的很不容易,你會成功!
最後,來一點 #考前訣竅
非常誠心建議考前一天做點運動,早點睡,早上早點到考場,簡單吃個三明治,喝個豆漿,考前半小時喝提神飲料(重要!),然後上個廁所,考場外等待時再臨時抱佛腳做做練習題( QuizFun 考尚樂 - 幫您快樂考上 線上練習題很方便,只要用手機,不用帶書)可能考試碰巧就遇到同樣題型
防疫考量,考試全程都規定要戴著口罩,建議準備比較透氣的口罩比較不悶

老生meaning 在 Facebook 的精選貼文
[美國大學最知名的畢業致詞 This is water]
看了新聞 發現美國高中生80秒對美國教育的批評被傳遍
也被翻譯了
然而這篇也同樣熱門 甚至更有意義的卻被忽視了
所以筆者決定自己把字幕找出來 一句一句翻給大家看
希望能對學弟妹有些幫助 看完能有些想法 順便練英文囉XD
如果對這系列有興趣 喜歡的話 還請幫忙分享出去
花了快一個多小時翻譯= =||| 不過可能翻的也沒有很好
日後筆者會翻譯更多篇好影片過來

There are these two young fish swimming along

And they happen to meet an older fish swimming the otherway

Who nods at them and says morning boys how's thewater?

And the two young fish swim on for a bit and eventually
One of them looks over at the other and goes
What the hell is water?
這兩隻魚又游了一下 最終其中一隻說 什麼是水?
The point of the fish story is merely that the most obvious
Important realities are often the ones that are hardest
魚的故事是在指出一個明確 重要的事實 也同時是最困難的
To see and talk about Stated as an english sentence of course is just a banal platitude
如果只是去探討英文上的句子 顯然只是一個平庸的老生常談
But the fact is that in the day to day trenches of adult existence
Banal platitudes can have a life or death importance
然而事實是 在一天一天如打戰般的成人生活
平庸的老生常談經常有生或死的重要性
The plain fact is that you graduating seniors Do not yet have any clue What day in day out really means
事實是 當妳從高中畢業 你不會知道真正的生活意義是什麼
There happen to be whole large parts of adult
American life That nobody talks about in commencement speeches
這發生在大部分美國成年人的生活中 沒有人開始在演講中談論這個
One such part involves boredom routine and petty frustration
其中很大一部分是無聊 重複的生活 和非常大的挫折
The parents and older folks here will know all too well what I'm talking about
在這裡的父母和比較老的成年人會非常清楚我在講些什麼
By way of example let's say it's an average adult day
舉例而言 讓我們看看現在成年人的生活
And you get up in the morning Go to your challenging white collar college
graduate job
你早上起床 去面對充滿挑戰性的白領生涯
And you work hard for eight or ten hours And at the end of the day you're tired and stressed
你工作非常辛苦 每天八到十小時 到了一天的盡頭 你累癱了 而且充滿了壓力
And all you want is to go home and have good supper And maybe unwind for an hour and then hit the sack early Because of course you have to get up the next25.day and do it all again But then you remember there's no food at home
你唯一想做的就是回家 吃一頓豐盛的晚餐 也許 放鬆個幾個小時
或直接倒到床上
因為 理所當然的 你明天也得重複一遍
但你忽然想起家裡沒有食物了
You haven't had time to shop this week because of your challenging job
And so now after work you have to get in your car and drive to the supermarket
因為妳充滿挑戰性的工作 這一周你都沒有時間去採買
所以現在 在下班後你必須開車去超級市場
It's the end of the work day and the traffic is apt to be very bad
在一天工作的結束 交通通常非常糟糕
So getting to the store takes way longer than it should
所以你去店裡的時間 也比一般需要花的長
And when you finally get there the supermarket is very crowded
當你終於到了超級市場 卻需要面對人潮洶湧
Because of course it's the time of day when all the other people with jobs
Also try to squeeze in some grocery shopping But you can't just get in and quickly out
因為 理所當然的 不只你 其他有工作的人也需要擠出一點時間來採買
所以你不無法迅速的採買就離開
You have to wander all over the huge over lit store's confusing aisles
你需要在巨大令人困惑 琳瑯滿目的商品走到中困惑
To find the stuff you want and you have to maneuver your junky cart

Through all these other tired hurried people with carts
還得和別人搶購物車
Et cetera et cetera cutting stuff out because this is a long ceremony
等等等等 這是一個漫長的儀式
And eventually you get all your supper supplies Except now it turns out there aren't enough check-out lanes open
最終你買到你的晚餐 然而卻發現沒有足夠的櫃台是開的
So the checkout line is incredibly long which is stupid and infuriating
所以隊伍排得不可思議的長 這是愚蠢而且氣死人的事情
But you can't take your frustration out on the frantic lady working the register
但你無法將你的挫折與怒氣 發洩在結帳小姐身上
Who is overworked at a job whose daily tedium and meaninglessness
尤其他們的生活已經是需要過度的工作 整天單調無聊又沒意義
Surpasses the imagination of any of us here at a prestigious college
勝於任何在座 就讀於名校的學生
But anyway you finally get to the checkout line's front
總之 無論如何 你最終到了隊伍前面
And you pay for your food and you get told to Have a nice day
你為你的食物付了錢 並得到了一句 祝你有個愉快的一天
In a voice that is the absolute voice of death Then you have to take your creepy flimsy plastic bags of groceries
這句話適用無聊死氣沉沉的聲音說出來的
然後你得提者你笨重 脆弱的塑膠袋
And then you have to drive all the way home
through Slow heavy SUV-intensive rush-hour traffic
然後你還得開車回家 在交通尖峰時刻
et cetera et cetera Everyone here has done this of course
等等等等 在座的每一個人 都做過類似的事情
But it hasn't yet been part of you graduates actual life routine
Day after week after month after year But it will be
但這還沒成為你畢業後 每一天 每一周 每一月 真正的生活 但總有一天會
And many more dreary annoying seemingly meaningless routines besides
還有更多無聊 沒意義的生活行程
But that is not the point The point is that petty frustrating crap like
this Is exactly where the work of choosing is gonna come in
但這不是重點 重點是在這挫折的鳥事 正是選擇來臨的時候
Because the traffic jams and crowded aisles and long checkout lines
因為在嚴重的塞車 和壅擠的隊伍中
Give me time to think and if I don't makea conscious decision About how to think and what to pay attention
給了我們時間去思考 如果我們不去做一個有知覺的決定
關於我們要如何去集中注意力去思考
I'm gonna be pissed and miserable every time
我們將會生氣 悲慘的度過每一天
I have to shop Because my natural default setting is the
certainty That situations like this are really all about
我必須要去採買 因為天生設定的的缺陷
me About my hungriness and my fatigue and my
desire to just get home

And it's going to seem for all the world like
everybody else is just in my way And who are all these people in my way?
所以這讓整個世界看起來 其他人只是在擋我的路
And look at how repulsive most of them are And how stupid and cow-like and dead-eyed

and automatic That it doesn't have to be a choice
這是很自動的 好似我們並沒有選擇
It is my natural default setting It's the automatic way that I experience
這是我們的天生設置缺陷 這是來自我經驗很自動的事情
The boring frustrating crowded parts of adult life
無聊又令人挫折的成人生活
That I am the center of the world And that my immediate needs and feelings
Are what should determine the world�s priorities The thing is that of course there are totally different ways To think about these kinds of situations
我是世界的中心,而我的眼前有需要和感受
應該確定什麼世界上優先考慮的事情
當然也有完全不同的方式來思考這些種情況
In this traffic all these vehicles stopped and idling in my way
在這個交通所有這些車輛停了下來,用我的方式空轉
It's not impossible that some of these people in SUV's
這不是不可能的,有些開者SUV的人
Have been in horrible auto accidents in the past
曾遇過可怕的交通意外
And now find driving so terrifying that their therapist
以至於認為開車事非常恐懼的 只能尋求治療師的協助
Has all but ordered them to get a huge heavy SUV
所以命令他們去開巨大 又笨重的suv休旅車
So they can feel safe enough to drive Or I can choose to force myself to consider
the likelihood That everyone else in the supermarkets checkout
line Is just as bored and frustrated as I am
所以,他們可以感到安全,或者我可以選擇強迫自己考慮
一種的可能性,其他人在超市結帳時也是一樣的無聊和沮喪
我也是那個讓人感到生氣的人
And that some of these people probably have much harder
甚至有些人有更困難的情況
More tedious and painful lives than I do Again please don't think that I'm giving you moral advice Or that I'm saying you are supposed to think
他們可能有更無聊 單調 痛苦的生活
再次提醒 不要我在給你們道德上的建議 或者告訴你們應該怎麼去思考
this way Or that anyone expects you to just automatically
do it Because it's hard
這只是一種對你們能自動去思考ˋ的期待 因為這很難
It takes will and effort and
這需要很大的努力
if you are like me
Some days you won't be able to do it Or you just flat out won't want to
如果妳像我 有些日子你不需要去這樣想 或者單純的你不想要去
But most days if you're aware enough to give yourself a choice
但在大多天 如果你有足夠的意識 給自己一個機會
You can choose to look differently At this fat dead eyed over made up lady
Who just screamed at her kid in the checkout line
你可以選擇在這一個在隊伍中對者他小孩大吼的女胖子 以不同的眼光看待
Maybe she's not usually like this Maybe she's been up three straight nights
holding the hand of a husband who is dying of bone cancer
也許他並不常像這樣 也許他已經很多晚上握者他即將死於骨癌丈夫的手
Or maybe this very lady is the low wage clerk At the motor vehicle department who just yesterday Helped your spouse resolve a horrific infuriating Red tape problem through some small act of
或者,也許他是低工資的業務員 在機車部門剛好服務了你的太太解決了問題
Of course none of this is likely but it's
also not impossible It just depends what you what to consider
沒有什麼是不可能的 只是看你如何去思考而已
If you're automatically sure that you know what reality is
And you are operating on your default setting Then you like me probably won't consider possibilities
如果妳都自動的腦補 確定你知道什麼是真實
那麼你只是自動執行你天生的缺陷 你不會去思考其他可能性
if you really learn how to think how to
pay attention Then you will know there are other options
如果你真的學者去思考和注意 你將會知道你有其他選項
It will actually be within your power to experience A crowded hot slow consumer hell type situation
As not only meaningful but sacred On fire with the same force that made the
stars Love fellowship the mystical oneness of all
實際上,它會在你的能力範圍內,遇到擁擠的慢熱消費者地獄的情況
This I submit is the freedom of a real education Of learning how to be well adjusted
這是我提出的建議 一個自由 真實的教育 是要學習如何調整自己
You get to consciously decide what has meaning and what doesn't
That is real freedom that is being educated And understanding how to think
你需要有意識的決定 什麼是有意義的 什麼不是
這是由教育給予的真實的自由 並且去了解該如何思考
The alternative is unconsciousness The default setting the rat race
The constant gnawing sense of having had And lost some infinite thing
另一個選項是無意識的 像實驗老鼠般賽局
持續的啃食者你的意識 失去了一些重要可以無限的事情
I know that this stuff probably doesn't sound fun and breezy
Or grandly inspirational the way a commencement speech
我知道這件事情 可能聽起來不活潑也不有趣
或者是一個鼓舞人心的畢業典禮演講
You are of course free to think of it whatever
you wish But please don't just dismiss it as just some
Finger wagging Doctor Laura sermon None of this stuff is really about morality
or religion or dogma Or big fancy questions of life after death
無論如何 你當然是可以自由思考的
但拜託請不要認為這只是一些花俏 無用的道德或宗教大道理
或者某些死後才需要知道的問題
The capital T Truth is about life before death It is about the real value of a real education
真理是生活在死亡之前 是教育的真正價值
Which has almost nothing to do with knowledge And everything to do with simple awareness
Awareness of what is so real and essential So hidden in plain sight all around us all the time that we have to keep reminding ourselves overand over
這和我們的知識並無相關 這只是很簡單在我們的意識之中
意識什麼是真的並且重要的
並且不斷一遍一變得提醒自己
This is water
這是水
