1.Follow news reports

1。緊跟新聞報道

Narguess Farzad is a senior tutor in the Department of the Languages and Cultures of the Near and Middle East at The School of Oriental and African Studies。 She believes that a surefire way to supercharge your learning curve is to follow the news in a foreign language。

Narguess Farzad是倫敦大學亞非學院近東語言文化係的資深導師。她認為，提高學習曲線的一個必勝絕招是緊跟這門外語的新聞。

“These tend to be easy to follow and are a satisfying way of using basic vocabulary and grammar that you have already learned。”

“這些很容易就能跟上，同時也是一個使用你早已學到的基本詞彙、語法的令人滿意的方式。”

2.Embrace technology

2。利用技術

“Apps now allow anybody， anywhere to practice languages at any time，” says Luis von Ahn， a Guatemalan entrepreneur and founder of popular language-learning platform Duolingo。

危地馬拉企業家、流行語言學習平臺Duolingo的創始人Luis von Ahn表示：“現在，App允許每個人隨時隨地練習語言。”

“Instead of having to sign up for a one-hour class and commute there every day， you can now learn whenever you want - if you‘re waiting for the bus， if you’re bored at home， or if you just have a few minutes to kill。 This convenience has fundamentally changed the way people learn， and has gotten millions of people more engaged in learning foreign languages。”

“無需每天出席一個小時的課程、進行課上交流，現在你可以隨時學習--如果你在等巴士，如果你在家中感到無聊，或者是你只是想打發幾分鐘。這種便利從根本上改變了人們學習的方式，使得數百萬人參與到外語學習中來。”

3.Enjoy songs and films

3。聽歌、看電影

“I also encourage the use of songs，” says Farzad。 “In fact， I learned a lot of my English through English pop music long before coming to live in the UK。”

“我還鼓勵利用歌曲，”Farzad説道。“事實上，在來到英國生活很久之前，我通過英語流行歌曲學到了很多英語。”

“Also，” adds Farzad， “try watching films as another way of consolidating your language learning process。”

“還有，”Farzad補充道，“試圖看些電影，將其作為增強你的語言學習進程的另一種方式。”

4.Mix with natives

4。和母語者混在一塊兒

“There aren‘t many shortcuts that I would recommend，” says Ana de Medeiros， director of the Modern Language Centre at King’s College London， “but clearly one of the more beneficial methods of learning a new language quickly is to immerse yourself in the culture。”

“我沒有很多可以推薦的捷徑，”倫敦大學國王學院當代語言中心主任Ana de Medeiros説道，“但是有一點十分清楚，快速學習一門新的外語更為有益的方法是將自己融入其文化。”

This works better if you already have some rudimentary knowledge of the language。 “But， by changing your environment， and actually studying intensively in a country or region where the target language is spoken， you will encounter the words and phrases in very natural situations - which will be very helpful。”

如果你對這門語言已經有了一些基本了解，這種方法就更奏效了。“但是，通過改變你的環境和在説目標語言的國家或地區高強度地學習，你就會在一個十分自然的語境中遇上一些單詞和短語--這會大有裨益。”
