Hi, hello everyone, Duo Ma, the ordinary little genius with children, is online. Today is time for interesting information again. School is about to start in a few days, and I suddenly feel like my baby is cute again. What's going on?
While you are in a good mood, hurry up and study with Duo Ma, and prepare to have thick hair!
Recently, people in the background often ask, " new concept ", do you want to learn it and how to learn it?
It is probably because Master Duo started to learn "New Concept 2" this year. When Duo's mother wrote the article, she shared some of our gains and daily life in learning "New Concept", which accidentally attracted everyone's attention.
However, Duo’s mother has really wanted to write an article about "New Concept" for a long time, because it is so important, and we only realized it when we were in primary school. Duo’s mother hopes that everyone can understand "New Concept" as soon as possible. Most children A must-learn hit.
01
First of all, Duo Ma would like to say that "New Concept" is not suitable for children who want to go abroad in the future. Those who want to go to school abroad are completely different systems and are not within the scope of today's discussion.
"New Concept" is suitable for the majority of children who want to follow the domestic exam-oriented education route.
Why do you say this? Because even though this set of textbooks has been used for so many years, all the key points and grammar points in domestic English exams to this day are still copied from "New Concepts".
Therefore, its texts, new words, grammar, sentence patterns, and question types are all very suitable for domestic examinations.
Duo’s mother’s cousin teaches English at a normal university. She also told me that when the high school and college entrance examination grading teachers were grading essays, they liked the writing style of “New Concept” the most, so I must let Master Duo memorize more of “New Concept”. The short essays in "New Concepts" are very important for writing high-scoring essays for high school and college entrance examinations.
During the summer after she was promoted from primary school to junior high school, Duo’s mother received her summer homework from middle school. She was pleasantly surprised to find that the English homework was to teach herself "New Concept 2"
Later, I heard from the parents of senior middle school students that the English textbook for the three years of junior high school after entering the school was "New Concept" . Haha, that’s so cool. We have learned it in advance, which means we have chosen the right chicken feed.
Then, Bao Wenduo’s mother asked from the mothers of nearby cows that even the second and fourth classes and the experimental class of Liu Xiaoqiang let their children learn "New Concept", not only the optical but also the memorization. Sure enough, I couldn't agree with my cousin-in-law. Same.
"New Concept" is a required middle school textbook designated by many Haidian prestigious schools and high-quality general schools. It is even included in the summer homework of Renmin University High School, the best school in the world.
(There are often parents in the group who prepare "New Concept" lessons for their children)
This time, Duo's mother felt at ease and finally did not fall into the trap. Master Duo had already learned it half a year in advance.
Don’t underestimate the past six months. After working hard, my son refused to read aloud from the beginning. Now he has developed the habit of reading aloud for half an hour every day and memorizing every chapter.
told me two days ago that school was about to start, so I had to hurry up and read one chapter from the beginning, and try to memorize all 24 chapters in the first unit before school started.
If you don’t start learning in advance, you won’t be able to develop this study habit. When you get to middle school, you will have to spend several months developing the habit, but you won’t stick to it.

Master Duo has studied "New Concept" for half a year, and I have followed her for half a year. I listen to her memorize the text every day, help her with Chinese-English translation, and dictate the original text.
(Looking at the old books being read by my children, I still feel quite fulfilled)
Therefore, I am more familiar with the content of "New Concepts", and I can particularly feel why children like this set of textbooks. So I like to learn English.
because the content is good. Each short story is very humorous. It is the kind of British humor and British wisdom that makes people smile after reading it. It is particularly advanced.
My favorite article is One man in a boat, which is about a man who likes fishing, but he never catches anything. Others could at least catch old boots and trash, but he had no luck with that. Friends told him to stop fishing, but he said, I am not really interested in fishing, I am only interested in sitting alone in a boat and doing nothing.
Haha, wonderful, who has the nerve to be honest and lazy these days? But when you sit down by the river with a fishing pole in your hand, it's different. You become a fishing enthusiast in the eyes of others.
No wonder so many uncles like fishing, it suddenly dawned on me.
Interesting and subtle short English essays like this are, to be honest, only found in old-school articles in the past. Today’s authors cannot write in such a tone. This is not called outdated, according to Haidian mother’s words, nutritious chicken feed is particularly scarce in .
Master Duo likes more texts. She pointed to the table of contents and told me that she liked this article because it was interesting and the content was reversed again and again; she liked this article because the pronunciation and intonation were nice, and she liked this article because it contained long sentences. , but it’s also very easy to memorize.
There is such a reason, I really didn’t expect it. We studied for a while, why is the same long sentence "Mad or not" difficult to memorize? It turns out that the grammar is too unfamiliar, passive voice and are so difficult.
Hahaha, unknowingly, the child learned the passive voice again.
So as long as the children like it, they will figure it out for themselves.
Mom, private telephone. I learned it before. There is a private conversation in the first lesson. Do you remember it? Mom, in this text, topsail is a famous little boat. It is translated as: "太波sai" is a famous little boat. If I were to translate it, I would translate "太波sai" as "nautical". Wang ", because top means top...
I can clearly feel that the high-quality texts of can indeed effectively enhance children's interest in learning and make them more active in learning.

In addition to the interesting and connotative content, "New Concept" is also a grammar treasure book , is particularly suitable for children whose native language is not English.
First of all, it focuses on knowledge points, and each text focuses on a grammar point.
For example, the main grammar in the first lesson "Private conversation" is declarative sentences. Throughout the story, every sentence is a declarative sentence, but there are various types, allowing children to understand that a simple declarative sentence can be composed of up to 6 parts.
In the table above, let the children put the sentences in the text into it, and they can more intuitively understand what the sentence structure is, and what the word order of the subject, predicate, object, and definite complement should be.
Lesson 7 "Too late" focuses on the past continuous tense. More than half of the sentences in the whole article use the past continuous tense, which is used very cleverly.
Master Duo said that the article that is particularly difficult to memorize, "Mad or not", is in passive voice throughout.
Each article in "New Concepts" is a sample essay on a grammatical point, scientifically organized, and the recurrence rate of the same grammatical point in is very high. Every time a child reads a text, he or she has mastered a grammatical point. The sentence types are rich and classic, and combined with exercises, the child can master the grammatical rules in depth.
In addition, the difficulty of grammar is gradual and spirals upward.
For example, the grammatical point of Lesson 16 "A Polite Request" is the if clause. Later in Lesson 40, if clauses will be discussed, but the difficulty increases, from direct conditional clauses to virtual conditional clauses.
is both contextual and progressive, so after we finish learning it, we can re-integrate the chapters according to the grammar points.
For example, put all the texts on if conditional clauses together and study them again, and put together the texts on modal verbs and and study them again. It is particularly easy to use and the learning will be more solid.
There is also the high-scoring composition writing sample mentioned above.
Children who memorize "New Concept 2" can write very standard, appropriate and authentic compositions, and they can write long and difficult sentences. Everything from word choice, collocation, tense to sentence structure is very stylish and advanced. English expressions like
are worth 100 points for the college entrance examination, not to mention the high school entrance examination. If the child has the ability to read "Xin San", the language expression will be more refined and beautiful.

Let's put it this way, after studying "New Concept One", you can master 1500-2000 words, 8 tenses, and 10 grammatical rules. Whether it is simple writing, daily conversation, or taking the KET test, there is no problem.
After learning "New II", the vocabulary of has reached 4000, and mastered advanced grammatical knowledge such as future continuous tense, future perfect tense, passive, and subjunctive. Not to mention the high school entrance examination, the college entrance examination is also completely sufficient. The number of words in the college entrance examination is only 3,500.
English is a subject that can be easily reached to a high level in primary school. It is easier than Chinese. As long as you plan well in advance, find good resources, and put in enough effort, everyone will be a gourd baby in a few years.
