Step #3 Communicate With Your Teacher
第1步：了解关键英语概念
要踢我们，这里有一些关键概念，您需要熟悉第4阶段（第7和第8阶段）英语：
- 词汇和语法
- 文学技术
- 语境
- 文本形式
词汇和语法
Vocabulary and grammar are the skills you have learnt from primary school. However, to prepare for English effectively in high school, expanding your knowledge of words and sentence structure is essential!
改善你的词汇和语法的重要途径是readwidelyand经常。This means reading novels from different genres and contexts.
To get started on reading, see our Year 7 and 8 English reading list here!
Literary Techniques
文学技术和设备是作曲家的方式（文本的创建者）传达意义在他们的文本中。您可能已经熟悉了诸如Simile和Mataphor等技术，并且您还有更多的学习。
Why is this important?
英语要求您查看文本并挑选如何作曲家通信含义。这就是所谓的textual analysis.
为了能够有效地分析英语文本和学习，了解广泛的技术以及它们的使用方式是必不可少的！
学习ing for English also means实践。广泛且经常阅读是重要的，因此将您的技能提供使用分析texts.
Why not give identifying literary techniques a go now?
这是一个引用'哦，你会去的地方！'由Seuss博士，看看你是否可以识别他用来沟通意义的技术！
“You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You’re on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the one who’ll decide where to go…”
语境
语境is the circumstances that surround a particular text and its composer. For now, you only need a basic understanding of context but in senior English, context is an important concept.
In general, context is the situation during the time the text was produced.
It can include:
- 历史事件
- Culture
- 文本制作的地方
- 作曲家的个人情况
Why is this important?
背景是英语很重要，因为它告诉我们why任何文本都已创建。它告诉我们文本背后的作曲家的目的，动机和灵感。
Textual Form
文本形式是指文本创建的特定介质。例如，“哈利波特和哲学家的石头”由J. K罗琳是一个第三人称小说and ‘Oh, the Places You’ll Go!’ by Dr Seuss is a散文诗。
更熟悉自己的一些关键形式：
- 散文
- 写作探索一个想法或讨论一个话题
- Feature article
- 一个事件或人的讨论部分;通常在杂志或报纸中找到
- 传记/自传
- 对个人生活的一个帐户
- 电影
- 照片
- 短篇故事
看看您是否可以在学校识别文本的文本形式，并与您的老师检查它们！
第2步：知道预期的内容
To prepare for English effectively, it is important to know what is expected of you in terms of assessments and independent learning.
Assessments
Years 7 and 8 English have a range of long-response assessments that test skills and knowledge.
Some common ones are:
-
- 创意写作: often in response to a stimulus (i.e. an image or extract)
- 散文：回应英文文本的论文问题
- Persuasive essay:回应您可以同意或不同意的声明
- Speech: a formal spoken address, often to your teachers or class on a given topic
独立学习
高中英语需要独立的学习，通常预计您通常会在自己的时间内读取（并且经常分析）文本。虽然它可能有挑战性，但在家中留出时间是良好的做法是为了英语工作。
How you spend this time looks different for everyone depending on where you’re at with Years 7 and 8 English.
有些建议可能是：
- Reading and/or re-reading your given English texts
- 分析您的文本部分
- Picking out important quotes or key points in your text
- 广泛阅读广泛的英语文本（您的英语老师或图书管理员会有很大的建议！）
- 修改课程工作
- Revise key concepts (i.e. literary techniques, textual form)

Step #3: Communicate With Your Teacher
Lastly, but certainly not the least, talk to your teacher!
在课堂上提问,努力participate in class activities and complete the work your teacher assigns you. Your teacher will often encourage active discussion in class, and participation in these will help improve your critical thinking and public speaking skills!
当给出分配或评估时，如果您没有给出任何人知道教师对您的期望是什么，请询问标记指南。
当您收到评估或家庭作业后，请求您老师的特定反馈。这可以帮助您了解您需要工作的英语领域，以及您在哪些方面擅长的领域！
英语可能是一个难以了解如何学习的难题，但在同一条船上有很多人就像你一样。
