If you want to learn Japanese well, you must keep studying every day. In order to facilitate the exchange of learning, a group has been created to share learning methods with professional teachers every day and broadcast Japanese courses live. This button skirt is first 920, then 175, and finally 736. Welcome students who want to learn Japanese from scratch to join us. If you just come to join in the fun, don't come.
Written by well-known scholars in Japanese philology, Sinology and Japanese education, it gives full consideration to the needs of China readers in learning Japanese, paying attention to laying a good foundation and ignoring practicality. Compared with the old version, it has been adjusted in content and scene. In order to improve readers' ability to introduce China's social and cultural background in Japanese when communicating with Japanese, the scene of the first volume of primary school was set in Japan, and the scene of the second volume was moved to China, which enriched the topic and content. The level of the first two volumes is equivalent to the level 3 of the Japanese proficiency test organized by the Japan Foundation for International Exchange and the Japan International Education Support Association.
Everyone's Japanese: Everyone's Japanese is a set of high-quality Japanese teaching books compiled by Japan Co., Ltd. and published by Foreign Language Teaching and Research Press.
New Japanese: This book is the first textbook for Japanese majors in colleges and universities at the basic stage, which was used by freshmen last semester. According to the requirements of the syllabus, this book is compiled into Japanese pronunciation, writing, vocabulary, grammar, sentence patterns, functional ideas and so on. The theme is mainly school, family and society, taking into account Japanese culture and customs. Besides conversations and essays, there are also some letters and diaries.
* * * The first volume of Lesson 20 is divided into four units, with one unit for every five lessons. The first unit is the phonetic stage, and the last lesson of each unit is unit review. The teaching time of each class is 12 to 14 hours, and the unit review can be slightly shortened. You can take a test after each unit of teaching. Except for the slightly different phonetic stages, each lesson consists of six parts: preface, conversation, functional terms, explanation, reading and explanation, and exercise. The above is an introduction to reading exercises and coherent narration. Conversation is a coherent conversation for listening and speaking training. Functional language only requires imitation, aiming at gradually improving students' daily communication ability through accumulation. Explaining is to explain the language phenomena in this class, including grammar, sentence patterns and some phrases and idioms. The exercise of Unit 20 is a mock exam, which refers to the requirements and forms of Japanese proficiency test.
What problems should be paid attention to in the selection of Japanese learning materials? What principles should be followed? I summed up the three elements of Japanese learning. Let's have a look!
First, the content of teaching materials
First of all, we should examine whether the textbook contains the most basic contents in the learning process, including word list, grammar introduction, after-school exercises and so on.
1, word list
First, it depends on whether all the words in the list will appear in the text. Some textbooks will add some words, but they will not appear in the text. This will not only increase the memory burden of beginners, but also make the memory unstable because of the lack of context (words). In addition, we should pay attention to whether the order of the word list is the order in which the words appear in the text, otherwise the learners will gradually wear away their enthusiasm for learning Japanese through continuous exploration and comparison. Finally, the annotation of tones and the sound reading of words. You must have audio when reading words, otherwise you can't imitate pronunciation.
2. Practice after class
After-class exercises focus on whether there are reference answers, which is very important in the previous study.
3. Introduction to grammar
The first step is to see if the terms are concise and clear. It's a pity that most textbooks just throw the terms at you without any explanation. For example, where does the "five" of the "five-paragraph verb" come from? Whose last paragraph is "(upper) verb"?
The second step is to see if the terminology structure is clear. The main reason is that the grammatical terms before and after are fixed, not the former one. For example, if you use "second-class adjectives", you should stick to them instead of "descriptive verbs (although they are all the same thing)". Novices are most afraid of this unnecessary confusion.
Second, the teaching material series
Secondly, considering the consistency and long-term learning, it is necessary to check whether there are follow-up advanced courses in the selected teaching materials.
The textbook requires a set from zero-based Japanese to advanced Japanese, which can ensure the integrity of the Japanese knowledge system from zero to higher learning requirements in the future. It is also convenient to check and fill in the gaps. For example, domestic Japanese majors study at zero basis and use comprehensive Japanese 1-4 until the end of their sophomore year. The four books of Comprehensive Japanese can reach the level of Japanese proficiency test. For non-Japanese majors, the elementary and intermediate knowledge system of standard Japanese is relatively simple compared with comprehensive Japanese. After learning two volumes, you can reach the level of Japanese proficiency test level 2 or so by doing more questions, and the grammar examples and vocabulary of standard Japanese are newer than that of comprehensive Japanese.
Third, the selection of teaching materials
Finally, we should refer to the selected text in the textbook, and whether it combines the requirements of the following parts:
1. Break the traditional grammar-centered textbook system, introduce the concepts of communicative teaching method and structural teaching method widely used in foreign language teaching all over the world, and integrate intensive reading, extensive reading, listening and conversation learning to cultivate students' comprehensive language application ability.
2. Brainstorm ideas and strive for perfection, which fully embodies the wisdom and crystallization of collective creation. Texts and exercises are written by collective discussion on the basis of originality, which is highly original, systematic and practical.
3. The selected articles have a wide range of topics, rigorous structure, novel content and vivid language. And pay attention to strengthening listening and speaking, trying to integrate listening, speaking, reading and translating through situational dialogue, which is comprehensive, interesting, contemporary and forward-looking.
Through the screening of the above three elements, I believe you can get the best quality and the most suitable learning materials for you. Everything is difficult at the beginning, and we must not take it lightly in the initial choice. Only after careful choice will we cherish it more and have more motivation to learn!
