Online media, like a good novel or comic, is an excellent learning tool. Why? Because it undeniably allows you to build on your vocabulary. Whether you are learning basic and recurring words or complex and industry specific ones, by looking at online media regularly, not only does your vocabulary expand, but you also learn about sentence construction, syntax, grammar and conjugation. You get a feel for a language in the written form.

在线媒体,比如优质的小说、或者漫画,都是学语言的好素材。为什么呢?因为它可以帮你有效地提升词汇量,这一点毋庸置疑。无论你是学习基础常用词、重复加深记忆,还是学习复杂的行业术语,定期阅读在线媒体不仅可以扩大你的词汇量,还能让你了解句子结构、句法、语法和动词的词形变化。通过阅读文字材料,你的语感会得到加强。

4 Tips to Learn a New Language Through Online News  Media

4个看新闻学语言的小贴士

1


(Try to) Read Every Day

(尽量)保持每天都看新闻





It’s crucial that you read the newspapers everyday to learn, and especially to memorize new vocabulary. The good news is that the subjects of newspapers change every day, which allows you to learn a new medium each and every day and not have to endlessly read the same type of text.

每天坚持读英语新闻学英语,这个习惯很重要,尤其对你提高词汇量来说。值得开心的是,报纸上每天的主题都会改变,这样你就能每天有不同的学习素材,而避免了日复一日读同样素材的枯燥。

Reading everyday can also help you assess your learning progress. For instance, if you come across a word you don’t understand on the first day. After several minutes of reflection you can save the word in a new D-dictionary notebook to go back to on a later date. The following day, when you meet the same word, you will have a much easier time remembering it. Even if you do not remember it right now, chances are the next day you’ll have it anchored in your brain.

每天看新闻也有助于你评估学习进程。举个例子来说,如果你第一天遇到了一个你本不知道的单词。查询(并思考了几分钟)这个单词的含义以后,你可以在小D词典的词书中保存这个单词,以便后续复习。第二天,当你遇到同一个单词时,你就可以比较轻松地记住这个单词了。即使你没有立即记住这个单词,那么后面再遇到的时候你的大脑里也会有印象。

Helps With By Giving Context Clues

通过上下文提示来学习外语





As mentioned earlier, before looking for a word you don’t know in the dictionary, it’s recommended that you first reflect on its meaning. This is because one of the main advantages of reading online news, just like any other book, is that it gives you words in context, not just a nonsensical vocabulary list.

正如前文所提到的,在小D词典里查生词之前,建议你先猜测一下它的意思。这是因为,阅读在线新闻就像读书一样有个好处:新闻中的词汇是有上下文语境的,而不是无意义的生词表。

Before you jump on the first dictionary you see, it’s recommended that you use the words surrounding it to attempt to find meaning to the unknown word. If you have any luck, you may also find out some of the word’s synonyms, which will allow you to take a guess at the meaning of the word, and thus enrich its lexical field at the same time.

在查字典之前,建议先看看它周围的单词、试着去猜一下这个单词的意思。如果你运气不错的话,你也可能发现上下文中一些该生词的近义词,这有助于你猜到生词的意思,进而扩展这个单词的词汇场。

This is quite a clever method when you have a grasp of sentence construction in the language you are trying to learn.

在你掌握了所学外语的句子结构之后,这种方法是非常有效的。

 Make Use of Online Dictionaries

利用在线字典(学习语言)





I remember I once went totally OFF-TOPIC on a high school English paper. Why? Because I was missing the translation of ONE word. There was a single word that I did not understand the meaning of, and there was no context clues to help me understand it. I was blind without this word (today I know it well).

记得有一次,我在阅读中学英语阅读时完全理解偏题了。为什么呢?因为我没弄明白文中一个重要单词的意思。文中有一个单词我不认识,并且当时也没有上下文提示来帮助我理解这个单词的意思。不认识这个单词我就无法理解文意(不过现在我认识这个单词了)。

So yes, sometimes even after several minutes of reflection, research, and deduction, it is difficult  to find a word’s meaning; a word that possibly could change the entire meaning of the text…

所以,有的时候在你思考了几分钟、寻找和推理后还是很难找出某个单词的意思;而这个单词的含义关乎你对整个文章的理解......

The good news is that there are tools nowadays to allow you to quickly and easily locate the translation of these words: online dictionaries. To help you find the right definitions, we provide Hujiang English Daily for you, with which you can figure out the word's meaning by clicking the word with your finger.

值得高兴的是,现在在线词典可以让你快速、容易地翻译这些生词。为了帮助你方便地找到生词的含义,我们提供了可以触屏点击查词的沪江英语日报,手指在手机上轻轻一点生词、就可快速查到其含义。

PS:沪江英语日报可以在沪江英语微信的左下角菜单栏【每日必戳】找到,我刚刚挂上去、由于缓存部分粉丝30号才能看到。

Learn the Pronunciation

学习发音





When we learn a new language, pronunciation is key. Unfortunately, the biggest downside of reading is that it does not allow us to learn the right pronunciation of a word, just its written form. How then are you expected to know its pronunciation?

在我们学习外语的时候,发音是关键。不幸的是,在阅读中学外语的最大缺陷,就是我们无法知道单词的正确发音,只能学到一些书面化的知识。那么你怎么才能很好地练习发音和口语呢?
