雅思詞匯如何分類
“ 雅思詞匯”
這類詞匯手冊(cè)在考生當(dāng)中流傳最廣，因?yàn)樗鼭M足了考生們“一步到位”的需求。它的特點(diǎn)就是雅思詞匯量龐大，一般在8000左右，都是按照字母順序排列的。有些單詞號(hào)稱是按照“詞根詞綴”進(jìn)行“巧記”，來(lái)引起考生的興趣。但是這類詞匯的編寫(xiě)方法就是將劍橋雅思真題系列聽(tīng)力和閱讀里出現(xiàn)的生詞進(jìn)行整理歸納，然后再按順序排列一下。
熟悉雅思的同學(xué)都知道，并不是每個(gè)出現(xiàn)在試卷里的單詞都需要考生全面理解。尤其是雅思閱讀部分，只有題目和原文出現(xiàn)同義轉(zhuǎn)換的單詞才是考官考查的重點(diǎn)。
另外，隨著雅思低齡化現(xiàn)象的愈演愈烈，越來(lái)越多的基礎(chǔ)較弱的考生參加雅思考試，而他們的詞匯量往往在2000左右，而所謂的“詞根詞綴記憶法”不僅不能幫助他們記單詞，反而更加加重了他們的記憶負(fù)擔(dān)，使背單詞的工作變得更加復(fù)雜。
對(duì)于詞匯量較大(如通過(guò)大學(xué)六級(jí)考試的考生)來(lái)說(shuō)，這類詞匯手冊(cè)能幫他們起到查漏補(bǔ)缺的作用，但是對(duì)于其它絕大多數(shù)考生來(lái)說(shuō)，這類詞匯背誦起來(lái)費(fèi)時(shí)、費(fèi)力，而結(jié)果卻往往事倍功半。
