高效自學(xué)外語6個的秘訣（1）

感興趣

This report and other recent studies show that online learning, distance learning, and self-learning in general, are not only more convenient, but, in fact, more effective than the classroom, for high school, college and adult learners. In the last decade, the Internet, the MP3 player, the iPhone, and other mobile devices,as well as social networking sites, language exchange communities, online learning systems, university courses online and more, have changed how we deal with knowledge. The walls of academia, and the costs of learning, are crumbling before our eyes and ears.
本篇報道和其他近期研究都顯示普遍而言，網(wǎng)絡(luò)課程、遠(yuǎn)程教育和自學(xué)比起傳統(tǒng)高中、大學(xué)和成人教育模式等，不僅更加方便、而且效率更高。在過去的十年當(dāng)中，互聯(lián)網(wǎng)、mp3隨身聽、iPhone、其他便攜式設(shè)備以及網(wǎng)絡(luò)社區(qū)、網(wǎng)上教育課程、高校網(wǎng)絡(luò)教程等等都改變了我們學(xué)習(xí)知識的方式。高等教育的圍墻、大筆的學(xué)費都在我們眼前崩塌。

For those who are conditioned to think that learning only happens in a classroom, the world of self-learning can be a little daunting. How do we best take advantage these new opportunities.
對于那些認(rèn)為學(xué)習(xí)只能在教室中進(jìn)行的人而言，自學(xué)可能會嚇怕他們。那么我們怎么才能最好的利用自學(xué)這種新興的學(xué)習(xí)方法呢？下面以自學(xué)外語為例，為大家介紹一些小訣竅。

1. Get interested
第一步：對所學(xué)之物感興趣

Make no mistake. Your interest in the subject is the essential driver of success. You can't learn what you do not want to learn. Emotion is an important part of the learning process. If you are even moderately interested in a subject, give yourself a chance. The key is to get started. If you can create some pleasurable routines, you may find that the subject grows on you. “L’appetit vient en mangeant” (the appetite comes with eating) as they say in French.
可別搞錯了，興趣是成功學(xué)成某件事的根本要素！你不想學(xué)的東西當(dāng)然學(xué)不會。在學(xué)習(xí)過程中保持熱情至關(guān)重要。所以如果你對某件事有些興趣，那就給自己一個學(xué)習(xí)的機(jī)會。關(guān)鍵是要“開始”！如果你能創(chuàng)造一些讓自己開心的學(xué)習(xí)模式，那么就能好好開始學(xué)習(xí)這門科目。就像他們在法語里說的那樣：吃著吃著就有胃口了！

很多同學(xué)因為看美劇或動漫而對英語、日語產(chǎn)生了強(qiáng)烈的興趣，這就是一個很棒的開始。如果你能抓住這個興趣，把興趣發(fā)展到語言學(xué)習(xí)中，你就不僅僅能得到看劇的快樂，更能為自己添加一種新的能力。不要擔(dān)心自己學(xué)不下來，總要給自己一個機(jī)會開始。
