GRE提升词汇如何避免低效率死记硬背?这3个核心记忆法需掌握，下面小编就和大家分享，来欣赏一下吧

GRE提升词汇如何避免低效率死记硬背

按照意群分组词汇联想记忆

GRE词汇虽然多，但其中许多词汇之间都存在一定的关联性。考生只要能够找到这种关联性，就能较为轻松地一次性记忆大量词汇。当然，大家在刚开始背单词时能建立联系的词汇可能很少，但只要注意培养这种意识，争取一串串地背单词，看见一个，就能想起一串，考生就能逐步提升词汇的成组记忆效率。比如，同义的、反义的、形似的、同类的、同根的单词放在一块儿记。背单词一段时间之后，看到一个单词，就可以想一想以前学过什么同义的，如果只有印象而想不起来，最好在笔记本上记一笔，下次碰到时，特别注意。再比如，背单词一段时间后，你看到了一个新单词tuxedo(礼服)，你就应该问自己：我一共学了多少关于衣服的词?比如garment，scarf，apparel，dress，trousers，skirt，blouse，jeans等等。虽然有些词汇书里已经做过了一些整理，但还是自己总结的记忆效果更好印象更深刻。通过这种方法，大家的词汇记忆效率能够大幅度提升。

结合词汇发音提升记忆力

相信大家在学校里的英语学习过程中都有过这样的经验，当老师在用英语听写单词时，有很多自己并不知道的单词也可以照着读音写出正确的拼法。这是因为绝大多数的单词是可以听音写出来的，不规则的单词很少。可以这么说，如果你记住了单词的发音，再过几遍，就可以拼出80%的单词，这一点也不夸张。一些同学没有体会到这一点，他们背单词的方法就是一本书，一叠纸和一支笔，狂练拼写。显然，这样做既枯燥又低效。记住，要背单词，第一要诀就是把它正确地读出来，然后你可以按照读音规则进行拼写。这样一举两得，既背会了单词，又练会了单词的发音，为将来能讲一流利而纯正的英语打下了良好的基础。而且通过出声记忆，考生能够对词汇形成更为立体的印象，对于加深词汇记忆，减少背过就忘现象来说大有帮助。

背过的词汇在练习中加深掌握

人与人之间交流的基本单位是句子而不是单词。只有学以致用，真正将所学单词用于日常生活、学习、工作环境中，只有能随心所欲地使用所学新单词、新语句与他人交流，才算得上真正掌握了单词。记住了单词在某一语境中的用法，不但可以在遇到此情况时可熟练地运用此单词，还可以举一反三，将此单词用在相似的语境中，从而真正掌握单词的用法，达到活学活用的目的。
