整整一年的时间,经过无数次的讨论、否定、修改与校验,这7838个雅思词汇终于结集出版了。迄今距离我编写的第一本雅思词汇书《雅思词汇精选》出版已经快六年时间了,记得当时自己还是个青涩的雅思教师,转眼间已步入而立之年。随着一堂堂课、一场场讲座的累积,感觉雅思之于自己越来越像花朵之于园丁,草药之于中医,太熟悉了,以至于可以不断地悟出一些东西。

词汇对于任何一个“烤鸭”来讲,都是一个很大的挑战,但现在很多正在起步的“烤鸭”可能还在用对付四六级、托福甚至是GRE 的办法来对付雅思考试。如果参加大学英语四六级考试,我们可以按照《大学英语教学大纲通用词汇表》进行准备,干净利索;如果参加GRE考试,我们也可以抱着俞敏洪老师的GRE词汇红宝书反复背诵,因为GRE考查的是认知、逻辑能力,考生要面对用英语写成的专业文章,因此对词汇识记的广度和深度要求较高,这样我们只能死记硬背,倒也痛快。就算是跟雅思最接近的托福考试,也可以通过反复记忆单词来取得比较好的分数,因为词汇量大对于阅读来讲无疑有很大的帮助,而且托福考试的口语和写作评分标准(Speaking / Writing Rubrics)中,没有对词汇提出明确的专项要求,而是更重视宏观任务的完成和话题的延展。可面对雅思考试的时候,很多考生突然感觉仅有背单词的执着和热情好像还是不太够用,有很多词汇量很大、听力和阅读考了满分的考生,在写作或口语上却总迈不过6分这个坎儿。当然,造成写作、口语分数不高的原因有很多——因为语法、发音、词汇等都是雅思考试中写作或口语部分的评分标准,我们在其中任何一项上出现问题都会导致分数不理想。但不可否认,对词汇的掌握不符合雅思考试的要求是其中一个重要的原因,雅思写作和口语的评分标准(Band Descriptors)对词汇提出了专门的要求,而且明确界定出各个分数级别间的差异,这一点决定了雅思词汇的准备是有别于其他的英语测试的,雅思词汇的识记应该更“雅思”一些。

可能是因为英语专业出身的缘故吧,我在济南外国语学校读中学、在北外读英国社会研究、在英国读教育学的时候反而没怎么在意过单词。一直以来对单词的态度就是“死磕”,遇到不认识的就背,到后来发现不认识的单词越来越少,做功课、写论文轻松了很多。可这种“持久战”式的背单词法并不适合所有的英语学习者,不是每个人都可以把语言当专业去学,也不是每个人都有12年的英语学习经历。对于大部分读者来讲,他们需要在有限的时间内去突破词汇的限制,并实现语言能力的提升。

在雅思词汇的学习上更是如此,我们的目标应该是从雅思考试的特点和标准出发,按照符合雅思考试规律的方法来积累词汇,并争取在较短的时间内实现test-taking performance 的提升。那应该怎样准备雅思词汇才能更有效地提高成绩呢?1. 要准备真正“雅思”的词汇。

所谓真正“雅思”的词汇,就是真正在雅思考试中出现过或者多次出现过的词汇,就像本书中的词汇,都取自于雅思考试语料库(其中收录了Cambridge IELTS 1-7、雅思机经以及权威雅思出版物中的所有文字材料)。2. 针对雅思听、说、读、写采取不同的词汇学习方法。

听力和阅读词汇以识记为主,认识即可;本书中收录了剑桥真题系列中所有的听力词汇,并单独附列在书后,以听录音、练拼写为主;阅读除了要准备6分核心、7分高分词汇外,本书还提供了阅读真题认知词汇,以认识、读懂例句为目标。就口语、写作而言,以熟记6分核心、7分高分词汇的发音和背诵例句为主。本书提供了词汇学习的四个步骤(参见“如何使用本书”)来帮助考生真正有针对性地准备雅思词汇。3. 针对6分核心、7分高分词汇,要融背诵、朗读、记忆例句和练习为一体,做到真正会使用这些词汇。

在雅思词汇学习过程中,我们往往背得多,练得少;学得多,用得少。在本书中,希望通过“如何使用本书”和练习题部分来帮助考生把重心放在单词的“使用”而不是“识记”上。

与以前编写《雅思词汇精选》不同的是,这次我不是一个人在战斗。我邀请到了我的同事——北京新东方学校的梅晗老师加入到编写过程中,他在多年的雅思词汇和雅思阅读的教学中积累了丰富的素材,并对雅思词汇有精深的理解。本文开头时提到的整整一年的讨论、修改,大都是和他一起进行的。这次是与梅晗老师第一次合作,他的敬业和才华让人敬佩,他的贡献也让本书多了更多时尚的元素。此外,不得不提的还有我现在的直接领导——新东方教育科技集团常务副总裁、新东方雅思研究院院长周成刚老师和把我领入新东方的北京新东方学校国外部英联邦项目主任何钢老师,自我编写第一本雅思书籍开始,他们就一直给予我专业的指导和无私的支持。

不知道几年之后我会不会再出版一本雅思词汇书,雅思总是那么熟悉可有时候又会不时给我新的灵感。不管怎样,希望与各位正在奋斗着的“烤鸭”一同进步。编者如何使用本书Step 1附录1: 2000个最常用词汇先进行单词测试,如果下列10个单词都认识,则可跳过Step 1,直接开始Step 2:advice   bottom   condition   detail   encouragefreedom   guide   length   mention   quality如果有单词不认识,则需要先熟悉“2000个最常用词汇”。2000单词数量建议学习时间1周(每天1-1.5小时)学习方法突击式,每天400个单词,最后两天集中复习,复习时可以将英文单词盖住,根据右栏的中文解释迅速说出对应单词及其拼写。学习目标识记即可。Step 26分词汇6分词汇为雅思核心级词汇,必须熟练掌握,对阅读、 写作、 口语用处极大。单词数量共42个单元,1764个单词建议学习时间7周(每天1.5-2小时)学习方法通过例句记住单词,反复熟悉单词英文解释和例句,最后通过练习题加以巩固。学习目标音、 义、 用皆通。注:建议在进行Step 2的同时开始学习“附录2:听力真题场景词汇”。附录2:听力真题场景词汇该部分收录了Cambridge IELTS 2-7中的听力词汇,基本上涵盖了雅思听力中所有的场景和常见词汇。由于该部分有很多词汇、 词组与“6分词汇”部分重合,因此记忆负担不大。2000单词数量建议学习时间与“6分词汇”同步学习方法通过听力真题学习单词,然后练习拼写。学习目标能听懂,会拼写。Step 37分词汇7分词汇为雅思高分词汇,如果识记得当,可以帮助考生在写作、 口语中创造词汇亮点。7分要求使用得当,因此在识记7分单词时重心不在量,而在正确使用。单词数量共28个单元,1064个单词。建议学习时间如果目标为保5争6,建议4周时间(每天1.5-2小时)突击学习;如果目标为保6争7,建议6周时间(每天1.5-2小时)细致学习。学习方法尽量通过记忆例句来记住单词,最后通过练习题加以巩固。学习目标音、 义、 用准确。Step 4(Optional)附录3:阅读真题认知词汇该部分收录了雅思阅读真题中的纯认知词汇,如beiji(白鳍豚)、counting house(老式的账房)等,在阅读过程中即使不了解他们的意思也不妨碍考生做对题目,但这些词的存在会对考生阅读的流畅感和自信心产生很大影响,所以如果复习时间还够的话,可以突击浏览一下这些词汇。1010单词数量建议学习时间2周学习方法纯粹混个眼熟。学习目标对中文意思有印象即可。单词释义中所用符号说明adj. = adjective 形容词adv. = adverb 副词conj. = conjunction 连词prep. = preposition 介词pron. = pronoun 代词n. = noun 名词v. = verb 动词fml. = formal 用于正式文体infml. = informal 用于非正式文体BrE = 英国英语AmE =美国英语fig. =figurative 比喻的derog.=derogative 贬义的[同] =同义词[反] =反义词[近] =近义词
