3. 如何教授低频词汇？

4. 如何教授学术词汇？
It is useful for teachers to draw learners’ attention to these words and to teach them when necessary.
If learners already knew the high frequency words of English, it would take a twelve-week intensive course to get good control over the academic words. This would involve direct study and teaching of the words, lots of reading of newspapers and academic texts, giving formal talks, listening to lecturers and discussions, and doing academic writing.

Mid-frequency (6000 words) teachers should train learners in strategies for dealing with these words. Learners should deliberately study them, but also do lots of reading to have a chance of learning them. Teachers should not spend time teaching these words.
Low frequency: teachers should train learners in strategies for dealing with these words. Learners should learn them incidentally through reading. Teachers should not spend time teaching these words.
Academic (570 words) learners should meet these words in listening, speaking, reading and writing. These words should be deliberately taught and studied.
