Such situation leads them to memorize the words reluctantly and to acquire unsatisfied test scores, or even to give up learning English. Why? It’s the reason that every word associating with things becomes less in our brain. Also, learning by rote is desperate, so a more evolved method shall be adopted. So far, there have been thousands of methods about memorizing vocabulary, why don’t we use previous experience and research results for learning English?

中文摘要:随着经济的发展，英语作为一门交流与贸易语言的重要地位越发凸显。人们对英语学习的迫切性越来越明显，尤其是对在校的大学生而言。而英语作为一门语言，掌握起来并部容易。特别是词汇，每个英语学习者在记忆英语单词的过程总都或多或少会遇到多种困难。平时我们记单词费时费力，见效慢，容易忘记，使学习者不愿意背单词，结果导致英语成绩提高慢，甚至放弃英语学习。为什么会这样？那是因为每个单词在我们大脑里形成的联想太少了。死记硬背的机械记忆方法的确令人十分沮丧，因此迫切需要利用好的学习方法帮助我们记忆学习。目前，记忆单词的方法是多不胜数的，我们何不借助前人的经验，前人的研究成果来学好英语呢？ 

　　　本文通过对词汇学方面的研究，分析了词汇的几个特点，提出一种结合构词法的联想学习方法，将陌生单词变成我们熟识的朋友。希望对学习英语的后来者更有帮助。
