　　附：記單詞技巧之音義聯想法

　　世界上任何民族的語言，都存在一些模擬大自然聲響的擬聲詞。例如，漢語中有模擬狗叫的汪汪聲、模擬物體坍塌的嘩啦聲和模擬敲鑼的當當聲。英語中不僅有擬聲詞，而且還有音譯詞，它們和漢語中的擬聲詞一樣，其發音與詞義有著緊密的聯系，易于聯想便于記憶。受擬聲詞和音譯詞記憶效果的啟發，我們可以有意識地利用漢語的發音模擬英語單詞的讀音，并將單詞的讀音與其詞義聯想起來進行記憶，這種方法叫做音義聯想法或者諧音法。該法能達到聞其聲知其義的效果，讀過兩遍即可做到過耳不忘。使用音義聯想法時必須注意：①掌握國際音標的準確拼讀。②要因詞施用，不可勉強而為。③只把諧音作為記憶單詞的輔助手段和提示線索，不依賴諧音拼讀單詞。

　　1 模擬生物或物體發出聲響的擬聲詞。

　　① cough n./vi. 咳嗽 ② tick n.滴答聲

　　2 由單詞發音轉化而來的音譯詞

　　③ engine n.引擎，發動機 ④ humour n.幽默

　　3 將單詞發音與其詞義進行聯想的諧音詞。

　　⑤ candy n. 糖果〔看弟吃糖果，自己流口水〕 ⑥ holy a. 神圣的〔神圣的厚禮〕

　　⑦ myth n. 神話〔神話是秘事⑧ sleev n. 衣袖〔使力舞衣袖〕
