新东方·20天背完高考核心词汇试读：
前言
背单词没有捷径，但应对考试却有技巧。对于高考生来说，如果以应试为目的，那背单词就要遵循“精准，快速”的原则。为此，我们专门为需要在短期内突破词汇难关的高考生编写了这本融合学习计划和词汇精华的词汇书，本书的特点具体如下：
1. 精准。高中词汇约有3 500个，但实际上其中部分词汇为考生初中时已经熟知的词汇，为此编者精研高考真题，统计词汇的考频，据此确定其中2 000个为核心词汇收入本书，使考生集中突破，学习更高效。每个词汇下只收录高考常考的释义和搭配，并辅以真题例句或一般例句，让考生有的放矢，了解考查重点。
2. 快速。本书为2 000词汇规划了20天的学习计划，浓缩高考词汇必背精华内容，是考生有效地应急背单词的最佳复习资料。同时本书在每一天最开始设置了Previous Check栏目，供考生背单词前自测，筛出已知和未知的词汇，以便合理分配复习时间，有针对性地选取个人所需的内容学习，不用全部死记硬背。
另外，本书收录的全部词汇均配套由专业外教朗读的词汇拼写音频，方便考生随时巩固词汇记忆。
有了好的单词书，再利用适当的记忆技巧，背单词就会事半功倍。为此，我们推荐考生：1学会利用词根词缀背单词。汉语有偏旁部首，英语也有词根词缀，这些语言元素都代表着一定的意义，所以掌握常用的词根词缀的语义有助于考生记忆词汇。2循环记忆，反复背诵。要想单词记得牢是要下一番工夫的，单纯地注重当时的记忆效果，而忽视了后期复习、巩固，同样是达不到良好的效果的，所以一定要通过反复背诵巩固记忆效果。3选择记忆的最佳时间段背单词。据生理学家数据分析得知，在上午6:00-7:30、8:00-10:00，下午4:00-5:00，晚上8:00-10:00这四个时间段人的记忆力最佳。
真心希望本书能帮助广大考生顺利通过考试，并取得满意的成绩。由于时间有限，本书错误之处在所难免，恳请广大考生能给我们提出宝贵意见，以便我们不断改善。新东方考试研究中心
