1 часть.Как учить английские слова эффективно1 часть.Как учить английские слова эффективно
1. Делайте карточки со словами
Старый как мир, но эффективный прием. Все студенты хотя бы раз в жизни заводили карточки и пытались выучить новую лексику по ним. Это удобно и доступно: не нужно тратить деньги, ведь вы пишете их сами, и можно брать с собой карточки куда угодно.
Для более опытных студентов советуем пользоваться англо-английскими словарями. Тогда на одной стороне пишем слово на английском, на другой — определение на АНГЛИЙСКОМ языке. Можно еще написать синонимы и антонимы изучаемого понятия.
А как правильно учить лексику? Запоминать английские слова лучше всего в контексте. Поэтому можно писать на карточке не просто слово, а предложение, в котором оно используется. Откуда взять такое предложение? Можно ввести изучаемое понятие в электронный словарь, например Lingvo: он выдаст вам наиболее популярные варианты использования лексики.
2. Используйте специальные учебники
Учебники для увеличения словарного запаса помогут вам не просто выучить новые слова, а еще и узнать, с какими словами они употребляются. Пособия хороши тем, что в них приводятся не просто списки слов, но и примеры их использования. Слова учатся в контексте, поэтому запомнить их будет даже легче, чем по карточкам. Мы представили подробный обзор “учебников для изучения лексики английского языка”, руководствуйтесь им для выбора лучшего пособия.
3. Создайте свой блокнот-словарь
Удобно организовать свой блокнот следующим образом. Каждая страница будет соответствовать определенному дню. Сверху напишите даты повтора. Ежедневно сверяясь с блокнотом, вы не пропустите очередную дату повтора. Чтобы изучаемая лексика хорошо закреплялась в памяти, не забывайте о повторении.
4. Занимайтесь на обучающих сайтах
Если вас сложно оторвать от компьютера, то учите английские слова, «не отходя от кассы». Занимайтесь на обучающих ресурсах, это еще интереснее, чем классические карточки или блокнотик со словами. Я рекомендую такие сайты как Lingleo и englishteststore .

Young Couple
Two years after Tom and Elizabeth married, they went to live in a small flat in a big city.
They were both quite young: Tom was twenty-six and Elizabeth was twenty-two.
Tom worked in a bank, and Elizabeth worked in a big office.
Elizabeth always cooked the dinner when they got home, and when they had meat, Tom always cut it up when they sat down to eat.
While Tom was cutting the meat up one evening, Elizabeth said to him, ‘When we were first married, Tom, you always gave me the bigger piece of meat when you cut it, and you kept the smaller one for yourself.
Now you do the opposite: you give me the smaller piece and keep the bigger one for yourself.
Why do you do that?
Don’t you love me anymore?’
Her husband laughed and answered, ‘Oh, no, Elizabeth. It isn’t that! It’s because you’ve learned to cook now!’

2 Rules Successful People Live By to Learn Faster and Better Than Everyone Else
Many people wonder how they can be successful. They do not know they hold within themselves everything they need to succeed. Successful people set rules and standards in their habits. Habits determine 95% of one’s behavior; as a result, a unique learning style.
They don’t memorize information but connect things together
Human beings are capable of forming patterns and connections. Computers can perform calculations at rates of millions per seconds. We can form connections, patterns than we can memorize information. Successful people don’t memorize! Learning via connections makes learning any subject easier. It is important to make connections between ideas. Learning faster isn’t magic. It is a process of figuring out what you do when you learn well and trying to repeat that more often. It’s about avoiding the trap of memorization. Thus, successful people learn faster and better by connecting patterns in a task.
They don’t multitask when they learn
Multitasking is an unfortunate pleasure we’ve developed in this era. This era of constant notifications and mobile applications. Text messages and emails might seem harmless, but they can divert one’s attention from the task at hand.

A man was wandering around
A man was wandering around a fairground and he happened to see a fortuneteller's tent.
Thinking it would be good for a laugh, he went inside and sat down.
"Ah..." said the woman as she gazed into her crystal ball.
"I see you are the father of two children."
"Some fortuneteller," scoffed the man, "I'm the father of THREE children."
The woman grinned and said, "That's what YOU think!"

The Tramp
A tramp was sleeping on a park bench late at night.
A man and woman were walking past.
One of them tapped him on the shoulders and asked:
"Excuse me!
What's the time?"
The tramp was very annoyed at being woken up.
"I don't know!”
He said angrily. “I haven't got a watch."
And he went back to sleep.
Sometime later another man was passing.
He woke the tramp up and said:
"I'm sorry to bother you, but I wonder if you could tell me what time it is."
Again the tramp said that he didn't know.
By now he was very fed up, so he got a pen and a piece of paper and wrote I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE TIME IS on it, and went back to sleep.
Half an hour later a policeman was passing.
He read the sign, woke the tramp up and said: "It's 2.30, sir."
