小升初英語學習指導親愛的同學們，祝賀你們升入初中！初中英語在很多方面是以小學英語為基礎的，很多語法點大家在小學階段已有了初步的接觸，接下來的三年里，我們將更深入的學習這些語法點，進一步的學習英語這門課程。下面，我們先來了解一下初中英語與小學英語的區別以及學好初中英語的方法吧。一、區別區別一：詞匯1.小學階段的詞匯多為四會的基礎詞匯，詞匯量700詞左右。學生們能夠理解意思，進行正確的拼寫即可。然而進入初中后，同學們需要在這三年里掌握2000詞匯量，隨著單詞量的加大，不僅對單詞有拼寫要求，更重要的是需要靈活掌握單詞的各種變化形式。2.在小學階段，學生對單詞的詞性概念模糊。而進入初中后，考試中的單詞類題目不再是簡單的單詞拼寫。更多考察熟詞僻義、單詞的正確形式、詞匯搭配，因此更強調單詞的運用能力。區別二：語法1.小學階段的語法，側重基礎知識的理解，知識點難度和廣度都比較低，并且沒有系統的梳理。2.隨著初中英語詞匯量的加大，語法難度也隨之加大。初中學習側重系統化、體系化。整個初中階段，將會學習詞法和句法兩大重要板塊。區別三：題型1.小學階段的題型比較少，常見題型為單選、閱讀理解，詞匯拼寫等。2.初中的題型將會更加多樣化，初中英語測試分筆試和聽說考試，總共150分。其中筆試總分110分，題型有閱讀理解、完形填空、詞匯運用、翻譯句子、閱讀表達和寫作，側重學生閱讀能力的考查；聽說測試40分，注重考查學生的聽說理解能力。二、學好初中英語的方法1、把握好課堂學習這一主陣地。課堂上要積極參與，不能做被動的聽眾。2、做好課前預習。在預習時，我們要熟讀課文，了解生詞在文章中的使用，標出難點。3、學會記筆記。因為理解≠記住≠靈活運用。因此，對好的例句、詞語辨析、常用句型、文化差異，中英文差異，習俗差異都可作些筆錄。既可以在課上去記，同時課下還要進行認真的補充和整理，要將英語筆記作為我們學習英語的一筆寶貴的財富。4、積極主動歸納總結語法規則。語法記憶也有規律性，我們要形成一個完整的知識框架將語法點分類串起來。在學習過程中，要善于主動觀察、歸納、總結語法規則。5、注重閱讀訓練，提高自己的閱讀能力。在初中階段，我們的閱讀不能僅僅滿足于課文，還要做到進行大量的課外閱讀。泛讀時可以選擇一些與英語學習有關的書報雜志。讀不同題材、體裁的文章，理解跨學科知識。讀時注意對運用精妙的詞匯，短語或句子做些摘抄。6、每日進行聽說練習，用“三最法”狂讀狂背每個單詞。背單詞的時候，一定要做到最大聲、最清晰、最快速。反復跟讀模仿單詞和課文，糾正自己的發音錯誤。學好英語的方法很多，方法得當，事半功倍；方法不當，事倍功半。不要輕易放棄，對自己要有信心，找到適合自己的學習方法，每天進步一點點，你一定會學好英語的。小升初英語銜接作業1.單詞記憶。復習小學課本中的單詞，每天聽寫兩個模塊單詞，注意你的書寫一定要漂亮啊。2.寫作訓練。準備一篇50字左右的自我介紹，內容包括：個人基本情況、興趣愛好等。入校后班內展示，可脫稿演講。3.預習積累。預習七年級（上）英語課本中的starter，聽讀單詞、課文，認真學習銜接課程，完成相應練習題。4.預習音標。你知道嗎？字母有26個。字母組合起來形成了單詞（單詞就好比語文里面的一個個漢字）。每個字母和單詞都有自己的讀音。但怎樣才能知道單詞的讀音呢？這就需要學習音標。因為每個字母和單詞都有自己的音標（音標就好象語文里的拼音），所以學會了音標，我們就知道每個單詞和字母怎么讀了。字母一、26個英文字母的書寫。二、英文字母的書寫要點：請規范書寫26個英文字母字母的分類元音字母輔音字母26個英文字母的讀音按音素將字母分類[ei][i:][e][ai][ju:][au][a:]七、大寫字母的用法1.句首詞的第一個字母要大寫______(he)isastudent.他是一個學生。2.人名、地名、國家名、某國人等專有名詞首字母大寫。Peter彼得Shanghai上海China中國Chinese中國人3.專有名詞的縮寫形式每個字母一般都要大寫。CCTV中國中央電視臺NBA美國男子職業籃球聯賽4.月份、星期第一個字母大寫，但季節第一個字母不大寫。Sunday星期天August八月spring春天winter冬天5.人名前的稱呼或頭銜的第一個字母要大寫。MrSmith史密斯先生MissMa馬小姐DrWang王博士6.一些大型節假日的每一個實詞的第一個字母大寫。Children’sDay兒童節NationalDay國慶節Christmas圣誕節7.書名、報刊名大寫，其中每一個實詞的首字母都要大寫。ChinaDaily《中國日報》NewYorkTimes《紐約時報》音標國際音標：英語中的音標就好比語文中的拼音，英語共有48個音標，其中又分為20個元音，28個輔音，英語中輔音和元音的作用，就相當于漢語中的聲母和韻母。音標用來標記英語字母和單詞的讀音，音標要放在[]內或//內，免得和字母相混淆。注意：1.單元音又分為長元音和短元音。2.雙元音由兩個音標結合起來組成。3.清輔音發音時喉嚨不震動，濁輔音發音時喉嚨要震動。1.單元音發音和單詞舉例：長元音/ɑ:/car[kɑ:]小汽車father['fɑ:e?]爸爸短元音/?/duck[d?k]鴨子bus[b?s]公共汽車長元音/?:/four[f?:]四morning['m?:ni?]早上短元音/?/dog[d?ɡ]狗body['b?di]身體長元音/?:/purple['p?:pl]紫色的bird[b?:d]鳥短元音/?/ruler['ru:l?]尺子eraser[i'reiz?]橡皮長元音/i:/tea[ti:]茶meet[mi:t]遇見；碰見短元音/?/pig[piɡ]豬body['b?di]身體長元音/u:/ruler['ru:l?]尺子two[tu:]二短元音/u/book[buk]書foot[fut]腳短元音/e/leg[leɡ]腿短元音/?/cat[k?t]貓2、雙元音發音和單詞舉例3、鼻音、邊音、半元音/e?/face[feis]臉鼻音/m/moon[mu:n]月亮/a?/eye[ai]眼睛鼻音/n/nice[na?s]美好的/??/boy[b?i]男孩鼻音/?/ring[ri?]戒指/?u/boat[b?ut]小船邊音/l/fail[feil]失敗/au/how[hau]多么；怎么樣半元音/j/yet[jet]然而/??/ear[i?]耳朵半元音/w/war[w?:]戰爭/e?/bear[bε?]熊/u?/poor[pu?]窮的4、清輔音發音和單詞舉例：5、濁輔音發音和單詞舉例：清/p/pen[pen]鋼筆濁/b/boy[b?i]男孩清/t/cat[k?t]貓濁/d/dog[d?ɡ]狗清/k/book[buk]書濁/g/get[get]拿到，得到清/f/foot[fut]腳濁/v/van[v?n]先鋒清/θ/mouth]mauθ]嘴濁/e/that[e?t]那，那個清/s/face[feis]臉濁/z/zoo[zu:]動物園清/?/short[??:t]短的；矮的濁/?/vision[＇vi?n]視力清/h/head[hed]頭濁/r/room[ru:m]房間清/ts/kites[kaits]風箏濁/dz/hands[h?ndz]手清/t?/peach[pi:t?]桃子濁/d?/job[d??b]工作清/tr/tree[tri:]樹濁/dr/drink[dri?k]喝【練習提升】1.寫出12個單元音2.寫出8個雙元音3.寫出28個輔音TheLittlePrince(《小王子》)閱讀片段一【文章導讀】文章以一位敘述者的角度描述自己童年的經歷。自己六歲時，畫了兩幅畫。這兩幅畫不被大人所理解，自己有些灰心喪氣，便放棄成為一位畫家，改變了自己的職業。1.他的兩幅畫畫了什么？2.他最后做了什么樣的工作？【正文欣賞】OncewhenIwassixyearsoldIsawamagnificent(精彩的)pictureinabook,calledTrueStoriesfromNature,abouttheprimeval(原始的)forest.Itwasapictureofaboaconstrictor(蟒蛇)intheactofswallowing(吞咽)ananimal.Hereisacopyofthedrawing.Inthebookitsaid:"Boaconstrictorsswallowtheirprey(獵物)whole,withoutchewingit.Afterthattheyarenotabletomove,andtheysleepthroughthesixmonthsthattheyneedfordigestion(消化)."Ipondered(考慮)deeply,then,overtheadventures(奇遇)ofthejungle.AndaftersomeworkwithacoloredpencilIsucceededinmakingmyfirstdrawing.MyDrawingNumberOne.Itlookedlikethis:Ishowedmymasterpiece(杰作)tothegrownups,andaskedthemwhetherthedrawingfrightenedthem.Buttheyanswered:"Frighten?Whyshouldanyonebefrightenedbyahat?"Mydrawingwasnotapictureofahat.Itwasapictureofaboaconstrictordigesting(消化)anelephant.Butsincethegrownupswerenotabletounderstandit,Imadeanotherdrawing:Idrewtheinsideoftheboaconstrictor,sothatthegrownupscouldseeitclearly.Theyalwaysneedtohavethingsexplained.MyDrawingNumberTwolookedlikethis:Thegrownups'response(反應),thistime,wastoadvisemetolayaside(把…放在一邊)mydrawingsofboaconstrictors,whetherfromtheinsideortheoutside,anddevote(致力)myselfinsteadtogeography,history,arithmetic(算術)andgrammar.Thatiswhy,attheageofsix,Igaveupwhatmighthavebeenamagnificentcareerasapainter.Ihadbeendisheartened(使沮喪)bythefailureofmyDrawingNumberOneandmyDrawingNumberTwo.Grownupsneverunderstandanythingbythemselves,anditistiresome(討厭的)forchildrentobealwaysandforeverexplainingthingstothem.SothenIchoseanotherprofession(職業),andlearnedtopilotairplanes.Ihaveflownalittleoverallpartsoftheworld;anditistruethatgeographyhasbeenveryusefultome.Ataglance(一瞥)Icandistinguish(分辨)ChinafromArizona.Ifonegetslostinthenight,suchknowledgeisvaluable.Inthecourseof(在...期間)thislifeIhavehadagreatmanyencounters(邂
