Get that energy going. Let’s go! Are you ready?

This lesson is called “The Power of Reading” and it comes from an article by Dr. Stephen Krashen. He’s one of my favorite people in the world. Dr. Stephen Krashen is probably the number one expert on language learning and language teaching in the world. He is just an incredible professor, an incredible researcher, an incredible intellectual. He has done an incredible amount of research on the topic of learning languages. And today we’re going to talk about just one part of his research. Really, Effortless English is based a lot on Dr. Stephen Krashen’s research, all of the methods we use. But we’re going to talk about just one particular method, one particular idea, very strong idea that comes from Dr. Stephen Krashen and his research and that is the power of reading. Specifically it’s the power of pleasure reading. It’s the power of easy reading. We’ll talk about that more in a minute.

But first let me read a little bit from this article. Now this article, as you might guess, is about the power of reading. And Dr. Krashen did a lot of research about reading. Specifically about how do people, native speakers, and people learning foreign languages, how do they learn vocabulary? How do they get good grammar? How do they get excellent writing skills? One of the most important methods is reading. Reading for pleasure. Now when we talk about reading there are kind of two different ways to learn reading, even for small children, learning a native language. Now one method, the old method, is that you learn reading skills. So you have to study and analyze vocabulary, for example.

Spelling in English is very difficult and tough so we have to study that a lot in school. Well, we don’t have to but often with old methods and old teachers we do. We study, study, study spelling. We study, study, study vocabulary. And we learn all these skills. We use all these textbooks to learn reading. And, of course, people learning new language, a foreign language, well guess what. You do the same things, right? You learn textbooks. You’re reading all these textbooks and you’re trying to learn all these “reading skills.”

Now the other way, the other method, and this is the method, in fact that works much, much better according to Dr. Krashen’s research, according to a lot of other research. It’s just reading for fun, imagine that! And what that means is reading a lot of easy books. Now for children that might be comic books. It might be just children’s novels. And it’s just reading, reading, reading, in other words we learn to read by reading. We learn vocabulary from reading. We learn a lot of our grammar from reading. We learn our writing skills from reading. Not by analyzing and studying grammar. Not be trying to memorize vocabulary. If you read something very easy, you know most of the words. And then you find a new word, you don’t need to memorize it. You will start to understand that word just because you understand the general meaning of the story. You understand the whole paragraph. You understand the sentence.

So that one word you can guess the meaning. And then guess what happens? You see that new word again somewhere else in the book. And then you start, it’s in a different situation. A little bit different paragraph, a little bit different sentence, and now you’re “Ah” you understand it a little more. Then you see it again in another paragraph, somewhere else in the book. And over time you will naturally learn that word. You’ll never try to memorize it. You will never study it but you will learn it. You will know it forever. That’s the best way to learn vocabulary. There’s a lot of research about this. They compare people who try to memorize vocabulary with books, textbooks, that is. And then other people who learn just by reading easy books all the time. They’re reading novels all the time. They’re reading, reading, reading.

Which group of people learns more vocabulary faster? The readers, the people who are just reading for fun. They’re just reading a lot of fun, easy novels and books. Those people have much bigger vocabularies than people who are actually trying to study vocabulary. It’s the same for grammar. People who are studying grammar, study, study grammar rules, study grammar textbooks. And then other people who are just reading lots of novels. They’re reading, reading, reading all the time. Comic books, novels, articles, stories, the readers have better grammar than the people who are studying grammar from textbooks. It’s a huge difference. And the more you read over time, the bigger the difference. The better your grammar gets compared to people who are using textbooks. So this is a huge topic. It is so important.

So let me read a little bit from Dr. Krashen and then we’ll talk a little more. Okay, this is from Dr. Krashen:

“When second language learners read for pleasure, they develop
the competence they need to move from the beginning ordinary
conversational level to a level where they can use the second
language for more demanding purposes. Such as the serious
study of literature, business and so on. When they read for
pleasure they can continue to improve in their second language
without classes, without teachers, without study. And even without
people to converse with.

When we read we really have no choice. We must develop literacy.
We rarely find well‑read people who have serious problems with
grammar, spelling and so on. They write acceptably well because
they can’t help it. They have subconsciously acquired good writing
style as well as the conventions of writing. Our problem in
language education, as Frank Smith has pointed out, is that we
have confused cause and effect. We have assumed that we first
learn language skills and then apply these skills to reading and
writing. But that is not the way the human brain works. Rather,
reading for meaning, reading about things that matter to us is the
cause of language development.”

读功率
嗨，这是AJ。时间为下一课。现在，这是我最喜欢的话题由我喜欢的人一一所以我想你要格外高兴，额外强壮的身体和生理的这一个。因此站直。获取这些双肩背。胸部了。深呼吸。获取空气打算在那里。激发你的身体。大，大，超大的笑容，大大的笑容。让每个人都觉得你是超级疯狂。现在，移动你的身体。来吧，得到它现在正。如果你站在你刚才那种扭动左右。移动这些武器，将那些腿。如果可以的话，开始行走。让血液去。获取能源下去。我们走吧！你准备好了吗？这一课叫做“阅读的力量”，它来自一个文章斯蒂芬·克拉申博士。他是我最爱的人在一个世界。斯蒂芬·克拉申博士可能是头号专家对语言学习和语言教学的世界。他只是一个令人难以置信的教授，一个令人难以置信的研究者，一个令人难以置信的智力。他对学习语言的问题做过研究难以置信的。而今天我们要谈论他的研究只是其中的一部分。说真的，轻松英语是基于大量的博士斯蒂芬·克拉申的研究中，所有我们使用的方法。但是，我们要谈谈只是一个特定方法，一个特定的想法，很强烈的想法来自博士斯蒂芬·克拉申和他的研究，这是阅读的力量。特别是悦读的力量。它是方便阅读的力量。我们将讨论在一分钟内的多。但是，首先，让我从这篇文章读一点点。现在这篇文章，您可能已经猜到，是关于阅读的力量。而克拉申博士做了很多研究关于阅读。具体怎么做的人，母语，人们学习外语，他们是如何学习词汇？他们如何得到良好的语法？他们如何获得优秀的写作能力？其中最重要的方法就是读书。阅读的乐趣。现在，当我们谈论阅读有一种两种不同的方式来学习阅读，即使是小的孩子，学习母语。现在，一种方法，老方法，是你学习阅读技巧。所以，你必须研究和分析的词汇，例如，拼写英语是非常困难的，艰难的，所以我们要研究，很多在学校里。好了，我们没有，但往往用老方法，老教师，我们做的。我们学习，学习，学习拼写。我们学习，学习，学习词汇。我们学习所有这些技能。我们使用所有这些课本来学习阅读。当然，人们学习新的语言，一门外语，还有你猜怎么着。你做同样的事情，对不对？你学的教科书。你正在阅读这些课本和你想了解所有这些“阅读能力。” 现在的其他方式，另一种方法，这是方法，事实上，工程多，根据克拉申教授的研究要好得多，照了很多其他研究的。这只是阅读的乐趣，想象一下！而这意味着什么是阅读了大量的书籍方便。现在的孩子，可能是漫画书。它可能只是孩子们的小说。它只是阅读，阅读，阅读，换句话说，我们通过学习阅读阅读。我们学习词汇阅读。我们学到了很多我们的语法阅读。我们学习写作技巧的阅读。未通过分析和学习语法。不会试图记住的词汇。如果你读的东西很容易，你知道大部分的话。然后你找到了一个新词，你不需要记住它。你会开始明白这个词只是因为你理解故事的一般含义。你理解整个段落。你明白这句话。所以说一个字，你可以猜测其意。然后猜会发生什么？你又看到新词在其他地方在书上。然后你开始，它是在一个不同的情况。有一点不同的段落，有一点点不同的句子，现在你“啊”你明白了一点。然后你再看到它在另外一段，其他地方在书上。随着时间的推移，你自然会知道的单词。你永远不要试图记住它。你永远不会学习，但你会了解它。你将永远知道。这是学习词汇的最佳途径。有很多关于这个研究。他们比较的人谁尝试背诵词汇书，课本，那是。然后谁读易书所有的时间学习只是其他人。他们读小说的所有时间。他们在阅读，阅读，阅读。这一群人学习更多的词汇更快？读者，谁只是阅读的乐趣的人。他们只是读了很多有趣，轻松的小说和书籍。这些人比人谁是真正想学习的词汇更大的词汇。这是相同的语法。人们谁是学习语法，考察，学习语法规则，学习语法教材。然后其他人谁只是阅读大量的小说。他们在阅读，阅读，阅读完所有的时间。漫画，小说，文章，故事，读者比谁是从课本学习语法的人更好的语法。这是一个巨大的差异。而更多的阅读时间的推移，更大的差异。更好的你的语法被相比，谁使用教科书的人。因此，这是一个很大的话题。这是非常重要的。所以，我读博士克拉申一点点，然后我们将讨论多一点。好吧，这是从克拉申博士：“ 当第二语言学习者读书为乐，他们开发他们需要从一开始就普通的移动能力会话水平到一定程度，他们可以使用第二语言更苛刻的目的。如严肃文学，商业等方面的研究。当他们阅读的快乐，他们可以继续提高他们的第二语言没有课，没有老师，没有研究。而且即使没有人攀谈起来。当我们读到我们真的别无选择。我们必须制定素养。我们很少能找到良好的读书人谁都有严重的问题，语法，拼写等。他们写的也可以接受，因为他们不能帮助它。他们潜意识里取得了很好的写作风格，写作的习惯。我们的问题语文教育，弗兰克·史密斯指出的是，我们已经混淆因果。我们假设，我们先学习语言的能力，然后运用这些技能，阅读和写作。但是，这并不是人类大脑的工作方式。相反，阅读的意义，阅读的事情，关系到我们的是语言发展的原因。“
