The Application of Root and Affix Mnemonic in High-school English Vocabulary Teaching and Learning
Ⅰ. Introduction
British linguist Wilkins pointed out that without grammar, very little can be conveyed, without vocabulary, nothing can be conveyed(111). Vocabulary, as a necessary part of English, can be considered as the foundation of learning a foreign language. A large number of English learners, especially senior high school students, complained that they had invested a considerable amount of time and energy in learning vocabulary, but the result was not like what they had expected. For one thing, they strive to recite new words, for another, they forget them quickly, which makes them very dispirited. Neither students nor teachers know how to solve the problem. A student’s vocabulary directly affects his/her enthusiasm for English learning. In order to make the students do not lose the confidence in learning English, the first thing English teacher should do is to enlarge students’ vocabulary. 词根词缀记忆法在中学英语词汇教学中的运用:http://www.751com.cn/yingyu/lunwen_35010.html
