memorize情景對話(huà)
Learning Vocabulary-(學(xué)習詞匯)
A：I don't understand why we have to memorize conversations.We need more vocabulary, not pronunciation. 我弄不懂為什么我們一定要記住會(huì )話(huà)。我們需要的是詞匯，而不是發(fā)音。
B：Don't you think memorizing conversations is a part of learning vocabulary?Every time we memorize a conversation, we're memorizing a whole series of contexts.Each context tells us one way a word can be used.I know from my own language that I can't always use words by simply looking them up in a dictionary and then putting them into sentences. Some words have many meanings. We have to know which meanings go where. 你不認為記住會(huì )話(huà)是學(xué)習詞匯的一個(gè)組成部分嗎？每當我們記住一句會(huì )話(huà)，我們就記住了全部的上下文。而這上下文可以供我們了解一個(gè)單詞的一種用法。我從自己的語(yǔ)言中意識到，光靠查詞典然后把這些詞匯拼成句子，并不意味著(zhù)會(huì )正確使用這些詞。有些意識有很多解釋。我們必須弄清楚在哪種情況下適用哪一種解釋。
