还有偷偷溜走的零碎时间
如何充分利用它们来学习英语呢

SCENE ONE
早上八点,传传按计划来到了附近的图书馆开始学习。经过半天的学习,收获满满的传传想要放松一下自己,观看英语演讲和英语纪录片是个不错的方法!在收获知识的同时,大脑也在短时间内得到放松,学习充满了动力!
During the intervals of study, if you wish to avoid binge watching slowing down your pace, TED Talks or short documentariesis probably an ideal choice to relax.

These short powerful speeches offer us a free access to some of the world's greatest thinkers, leaders and teachers.
在两段学习时间的间隙,如果你想让大脑得到放松的同时又不打乱学习节奏,欣赏一集TED talks或者英语纪录片或许是一个不错的选择。以TED Talks为例,一集演讲时长20—30分钟,主题涵盖科技、设计、文化等多个领域,给予我们与世界名家们对话的机会。你可以直接在官网找到自己感兴趣主题的演讲视频。

SCENE TWO
中午十二点,在地铁站等车回家的传传掏出了口袋里的《单词的力量》,抓住碎片时间来背单词。这本书既小巧便携,又有着十分独特的记忆方法,每天看上几页,传传的词汇量突飞猛进,终于不用在abandon上绕圈了!
Doyou think that reciting words is a much disputed way to learn English? If you do, maybe it’s because you haven’t found the right book yet. Unlike many other vocabulary books, which simply prints out each word from A to Z,Word Power Made Easyapplied a unique method to help learners memorize words more efficiently. It introduces new words not only by presenting the word itself, butpointing out its roots and affixesat the same time. Therefore without even realizing it, you might already have dozens of words carved deep into your memory simply with a flip of the pages.
背单词既痛苦又没效果?或许只是你没有找到正确的单词书!《单词的力量》不同于普通单词书按字母表顺序排列单词,而是在每个单词之外将词根和词缀同时展现出来,更能加深我们对单词的理解和记忆,轻松提升词汇量。与此同时,这本书以基础单词为主,高阶单词随词汇量慢慢增加而出现,单词小白也不用担心被劝退。

SCENE THREE
下午三点,原本与朋友约好出去玩,却遇上了大雨。心灰意冷的传传在地铁里戴上了耳机,默默打开手机里播客软件。BBC的一期访谈节目吸引住了传传,主持人妙语横生,嘉宾机智应变,烦恼瞬间被抛到脑后了。
When feeling down, rather than listening to music and drowning your sadness, why notchoose English podcastto temporarily divert your attention instead? You can either have the latest programs from radio stations like BBC and VOA, or intriguing interviews, discussions and talk shows. Plus if you pay enough attention,learning idioms, proverbs, expressions and interesting words shouldn't be a goal hard to reach.
情绪不佳想要转移自己的注意力时,与其打开网易云,不如选择收听一期英语电台!你可以选择VOA、BBC等固定新闻栏目,也可以收听访谈、采访等深度内容。在收听的同时,细心的你也可以同时达成积累好词好句的成就哦~

SCENE FOUR
晚上十点,躺到被窝里的传传尚无困意,趁着精神赶紧读一会儿最新一期《经济学人》杂志。但是每一篇文章都好长啊,传传不得不练习自己快速扫视并获取信息的能力,读完了两三篇,困意也上来了,晚安传传!
Always repeating easy tasks can be dull, also lacking excitement in a sense. Well, ready for some more challenging reading materials? Though you might get baffled by new words and complex sentence structures in the beginning, but don’t be frustrated just yet.
简单重复的工作既乏味又没有收获,来尝试一些有挑战性的英语阅读吧!一开始,你可能会被陌生的单词和复杂的文章结构难倒,但不要因此放弃,接下来介绍的这种阅读方式——泛读,或许是不错的选择~
When facing long articles containing many professional terms from magazines likeThe Economist,try and practice your extensive reading skills.Extensive reading allows learners to read texts mainly for enjoyment while developing their general reading ability. Sofeel free to take a guess at the word’s meaningbased on the context if you are not familiar with it.
泛读适用于出现大量专业词汇的长难文章,如《经济学人》等。这种阅读方式旨在让读者理解文章大意,不求全篇精通,能让我们在轻松阅读的同时加强我们的阅读能力。你可以通过联系上下文来猜测陌生单词的含义,这也是一种在实战中增加词汇量和理解语法的好方式。
