每次打籃球或者進(jìn)行其他運(yùn)動(dòng)之前我們總要做一些熱身活動(dòng)來(lái)準(zhǔn)備準(zhǔn)備，學(xué)英語(yǔ)也是一樣，這里有一些可以幫你做學(xué)前熱身的簡(jiǎn)單練習(xí)。

Exercise I：Activating Your Vocabulary熱身練習(xí)一：激活你的詞匯

Activate your vocabulary by thinking or speaking about the subject you are going to study on.For example，if you are going to study on vacations，take a moment to think about your last vacation:What you did，What you enjoyed，etc.This simple exercise will help your brain warm up to vocabulary that you are likely to use as you study English about this subject.

可以通過(guò)想想或說(shuō)說(shuō)你即將學(xué)習(xí)的主題來(lái)激活你的英語(yǔ)詞匯。舉個(gè)例子，如果你要學(xué)習(xí)和假期有關(guān)的主題，花點(diǎn)時(shí)間想想你的上一個(gè)假期：你干什么了，你喜歡什么，等等。這個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單的練習(xí)可以讓你的大腦準(zhǔn)備好你在學(xué)習(xí)的時(shí)候可能用到的詞匯。

在你開(kāi)始學(xué)英語(yǔ)之前，給自己唱一首英語(yǔ)歌吧。最好是一首你完全明白唱的是什么的歌。這種簡(jiǎn)短又有趣的練習(xí)可以幫助你的大腦在放松的情況下集中到英語(yǔ)這種語(yǔ)言上。學(xué)英語(yǔ)的時(shí)候放松是很重要的！唱歌還能幫助你激活大腦中有創(chuàng)造力的一面，可以讓你在練習(xí)對(duì)話或者寫(xiě)作的時(shí)候舉出更多的例子。

Exercise III：Writing a Short Paragraph in English熱身練習(xí)三：用英語(yǔ)寫(xiě)一段文章

如果你要坐在桌前學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)，從寫(xiě)一段簡(jiǎn)單的英文開(kāi)始吧。你可以寫(xiě)寫(xiě)你的一天、你的愛(ài)好、你的朋友等等。寫(xiě)字可以幫助你激活大腦中運(yùn)動(dòng)的部分，這有助于從生理行為方面促進(jìn)學(xué)習(xí)。
