1.如何利用原版书学英文？

• 信息（读得懂）

• 语言（学到手）

• 读书，顺便学英文

具体怎么做？

选书：

兴趣、他人推荐、Goodreads、豆瓣、比尔盖茨

一开始别跟自己过不去，读自己不喜欢读的书。

读几本之后可以试试新口味。

是否读这本书？认真读完前两章再做决定。

2. 设立正确期待：

不要指望句句都是干货

不要指望能够100%读懂

不要指望能够掌握所有的语言点

了解点信息，顺便学点英文，就是赚到了。

3. 设定阅读计划：心中有数

10页/天*20天=200页

读一遍，再读一遍（常读常新）

第一遍：掌握框架、主要信息。说了什么事？哪里没读懂？学到了什么？

第二遍：解决问题、积累素材

别死磕& Live with it

只记你最想记的表达，Less is more，慢下来难。

书的主人是你自己

He built his first lasts.鞋拔子

Insole, outsole, welt, vamp

术语，用不上就没有意义。Use it or lose it.

既然想记，那就多看一眼，多查一下：注意语域！！！！

What a swell idea, Buck!

Carter grinned. Swell idea, Buck.

4. 高级玩法

• 练听力和发音，听有声书(Audible)

• 听播客，看采访

• 读中英文书评

• 回译

• 讲故事：搜Shoe dog summary，复述

My resume said I was a learned(发音！)，accomplished soldier, a twenty-four-year-old man in full...

The idea interested me, then inspired me, then captivated me. It seemed so obvious, so simple, so potentially huge.

这个想法激起了我的兴趣，鼓舞着我，吸引着我不断前进。它看上去似乎太过明显、简单，

但又拥有无限潜力。

Shoe Dog中值得学习的英文表达

读得懂不代表你也会，简单的东西并不简单。

如果你没有说过、用过这个词，就把它当生词对待。

在阅读中学词汇，一定要在语境中理解

在语境中理解一句话，不要急着查字典（先猜后查）

按语块记忆，学完就造句

你会怎么说？还可以怎么说？

按需学习，量力而为
