镇江英语培训文章

英语学习必须要有好的学习资料和学习方法，还要先制定一个合适的学习计划，这方面洛基·英语比较有经验，分享英语听力方法：先听 读课文前先听课文。通常同学及一般的英语学习者都是先读英语课文，然后再听录音。现在的教科书都配有磁带，我们就把过程调换一下：先听课文录音，反复听好几遍，等到自己确实基本听懂了，再翻开书读课文。读时留意原来没有听懂的地方，然后合上书再听。每次听课文录音，特别把注意力集中在刚才没听懂的句子，往往是些新单词、新短语，这样听了后，这些新词语也都掌握了，听力也提高了。 精听 仔细认真听，而且必须要全部听懂，句句听懂。如同学习语文一样，有一本教科书是精读课本，篇篇要仔细分析，看懂每个词语、句子。精听也必须“正襟危坐”，高度集中思想，力图听懂每个词语、句子，捕捉信息。训练的方法是先把录音文章听一遍，通晓大意，然后再重放，一句一句地听，遇到听不懂的词语、句子，就利用录音机、复读机的倒放功能，倒了再听，一遍不行两遍，甚至三遍，直至听懂为止。然后再下一句，等到每个句子都听懂了，再把全文从头至尾放一遍，的确全听懂了，精听也达到了预期的效果。 泛听 如英语泛读一样，只求听着，不求甚解，只求量的增加与积累，不求听懂每个句子。就泛听来说，还可分为两个方法，方法之一是当你在家吃晚饭时或做功课感到累时，就放些英语磁带，看看英语新闻，听听英语广播，让家庭充分浸润在英语氛围中，就像处在英语国家的语言环境中；方法之二是准备一个Walkman，再购置一些道道地地的英语磁带，我特别推荐Crazy English ——每两个月出一期的磁带，体裁多样，可听性强。如果是乘车或步行上学，或在小憩休息时，就可戴着耳机听英语，都不占用整块的学习时间，而是利用休息时间或零星时间，使自己尽可能增加“听”的输入量，听的量增加了，有些语言情景与单词短语反复听了，也很自然慢慢听懂了，英语听的能力也自然提高了。

Zhenjiang (Chen-chiang, Chin-kiang or Chinkiang) Jiangsu Province Meaning of the name "Garrison (of the Yangzi) River" Population 390,000 in Zhenjiang City, with a total of 2,600,000 in Zhenjiang and the surrounding districts under its control. Location On the south bank of the Yangzi River (Chang Jiang), 200 km (120 miles) northwest of Shanghai and 60 km (40 miles) east of Nanjing. Map of Zhenjiang History Zhenjiang was the seat of feudal domains from the 8th century BC onwards. After it was captured by Qin, the first Chinese emperor, in 221 BC, it became a county town. After being conquered by the Sui in 581 AD, it was made a garrison to guard the entrance to the Yangzi River. Its importance grew with the building of a precursor to the Grand Canal, when it became the chief collection and forwarding center for tax grain paid by the Yangzi delta region. The city reached its zenith under the Song dynasty (960-1279), when it produced fine silks, satins, and silverware for the emperors. In about 1300, a census reported that some Nestorian Christians were living in Zhenjiang. Zhenjiang suffered from strife during the Opium War (1839-42) when it was bombarded by British warships, and again during the Taiping Rebellion (1850-1864). Zhenjiang declined economically with the closure of the northern portion of the Grand Canal in the 1850s, and the obstruction of the entrance to the southern canal in the 20th century. From 1928 to 1949, during the Nationalist (Guomindang) regime of Chiang Kaishek, Zhenjiang was made the capital of Jiangsu Province, while Nanjing (the present-day capital of Jiangsu) served as the capital of China. Zhenjiang is still one of China's busiest ports for domestic commerce, serving as a hub for trade between northern Jiangsu and Anhui provinces, and Shanghai. The trade mostly consists of grain, cotton, oils, and lumber. The other main industries are mostly in the field of food processing and paper pulp manufacturing. It is famous among Chinese for its heroic resistance against the British (in 1842 and 1949) and the Japanese (in the Second World War). Language Zhenjiang is in the region of Lower Yangzi Mandarin dialects, which means it sounds more like the "standard" Chinese spoken in Beijing than the Wu dialects spoken to the east towards Shanghai. Culture In a park on the edge of Zhenjiang there is a spring which was described in the Tang dynasty (618-907 AD) as being the best in Jiangsu for the making of tea (Number One Lifespring Under Heaven). The hilly scenery in Zhenjiang's southern suburbs was considered beautiful enough to be the theme of many landscapes by Chinese painters. Near the Zhenjiang Museum in Boxian Park is the Shaozong Library, which among other documents contains a 100-volume collection of old sayings and proverbs, dating from the 7th to 11th centuries. Pearl S. Buck (1892-1973), the Nobel Prize-winning author of The Good Earth and other novels about China, lived in Zhenjiang with her missionary parents until the age of 15. Her childhood home is preserved on the grounds of a radio factory in Zhenjiang. Zhenjiang is home to the Silkworm Raising Research Institute of the Academy of Agricultural Science of China. Food A local specialty is a steamed meat pastry called Crab Cream Bun. Other famous special products include fragrant vinegar, pork, and pickles. Folklore Because of its strategic location on the Yangzi River, Qin, the first Emperor of China, believed that the fengshui (magical earth powers) of Zhenjiang were too strong, so he ordered 3,000 prisoners to dig a tunnel through a hill to divert the powers away. In the traditional Chinese story The Tale of the White Snake, a magical, 1000 year old snake who could take the form of a woman escapes through a cave in Gold Hill, to be reunited with her lover in the far-away city of Hangzhou.
