Abstract

English vocabulary learning is the focal point of English learning and has posed great difficulty to non-English majors. A survey conducted by the authors showed that non-English majors generally have such problems in English vocabulary learning as lack of English language environment, isolated vocabulary memorization, difficulty in retention, and the negative influence of the mother tongue. The corresponding strategies to tackle these problems include situational vocabulary learning, differentiation and induction, regular review and learning by association. Students should choose the learning strategies that best suit them so as to improve the effect of English learning.
