Nothing makes your paper appear shabby or unpolished like the appearance of several misspelled words in your text. While we can depend on technology to let us know when we've made errors in spelling, it's important to know that technology has flaws.
沒有比出現(xiàn)一些詞匯拼寫錯誤使文章看起來更簡陋而未加修飾的問題了。雖然我們可以依賴于一些技術(shù)幫我們發(fā)現(xiàn)文章中的拼寫錯誤，但需要知道技術(shù)并不是萬能的。
1. Make yourself a list of problem words. If there are certain words you have already identified that you misspell frequently, make yourself a spelling list.
1.制作一份易錯詞匯列表。如果對于一些單詞，你拼寫出錯較為頻繁，制作一份單詞清單吧。

Use flashcards to practice a little every night and eliminate words when you feel you've conquered them. Soon you'll find that you have mastered these problem words!
使用抽認卡每晚進行適當?shù)木毩暎サ粢呀?jīng)掌握的詞匯。一段時間后你就會發(fā)現(xiàn)自己已經(jīng)掌握了這些問題詞匯。

?2. Keep a "problem word" file in your computer. Each time you run a spell-checker and find a word that you've misspelled, copy and paste the word into your file. Later you can add it to your list (above).
2.在你的電腦中也留存一份容易出錯詞匯清單。每次運行拼寫檢查軟件時，你可以發(fā)現(xiàn)這些錯誤拼寫的詞，將這些詞復制粘貼到易錯詞匯清單的文件中。之后也可以將這些詞加到1中的易錯詞匯列表中。

3. Each time you practice a word, spell it out loud. Later, you will recall how the word sounded as you spelled it right. You'll be surprised how well this words!
3.每次練習一個詞的時候，將單詞的拼寫大聲讀出來，在你拼寫正確的時候你會回憶這些詞時如何發(fā)音的，你會驚訝這個詞是多么好聽。

4. Review the rules for prefixes and suffixes. You'll avoid many mistakes once you understand the difference between "inter" and "intra," for example.
4.回顧單詞前綴和后綴的構(gòu)成規(guī)則，理解詞綴后，你可以避免很多很多錯誤，比如理解“inter”“intra”的區(qū)別后，你就不會再混淆了。

5. Study common root words of words with Greek and Latin origins. This is a trick used by many spelling bee participants.
5.學習一些常見的來源于希臘語和拉丁語的根詞。這是一個許多參加拼寫比賽選手所使用的技巧。

6. Memorize clumps of words that belong to special groups. For example, you will find that the group of words that contain "ough" (rhyming with tough) is finite. Once you make a comprehensive list, you are ready to memorize. By observing words that do and don't belong together, you will reduce uncertainty about many similar words that don't make the list.
6.記憶一些屬于特殊群體的詞匯，例如,你會發(fā)現(xiàn)包含“ough”的單詞(與tough押韻)是有限的。一旦你做一個全面的列表，便可以方便記憶。通過觀察單詞的相似性和找到屬于一類和不屬于一類的單詞，你可以找到更多可以分為一類的單詞并添加到列表中。

More lists of special groups would include:
其他特殊詞匯的列表:

aire words like questionnaire and millionaire

mn words like hymn and column

ps words like psychology and pseudonym

ible words like edible and audible

Be sure to revisit this list frequently.

air：questionnaire 問卷調(diào)查，millionaire 百萬富翁

mn：hymn 圣歌，column 列

ps：psychology 心理學，pseudonym 筆名

ible：可食用的，audible 聽得見的

Be sure to revisit thi s list frequently.
一定要經(jīng)常重溫這個列表。

7. Read a lot! Many words become familiar to us because we see them often. The more you read, the more words you will memorize - even though you won't realize it.
7.大量閱讀!我們對一些單詞越來越熟悉是因為我們常見到這些單詞。盡管你意識不到這一點，但你讀到的越多,你記住的單詞也會越多。

8. Read with a pencil. You can mark your books with light pencil marks to indicate words you'd like to practice. Just remember to go back and erase! If you happen to use an eReader, be sure to highlight and bookmark words you'd like to practice.
8.閱讀時習慣拿一支鉛筆。你可以輕輕地用鉛筆在書上做標記標出你計劃練習的重點詞匯。記得之后返回去將你做的標記清除掉。如果你使用的是電子閱讀器，則可以將需要練習的詞匯標注為高光或插入書簽。

9. Practice with a few online spelling quizzes. This is a good way to find frequently-misspelled or commonly-confused words.
9.適當做一些在線拼寫練習。這種方式可以幫助你發(fā)現(xiàn)一些常常拼寫錯誤的詞和常見的易混淆詞匯。

10. Visualize yourself carrying out an activity to match a problem word. For example, if you have trouble remembering how to spell edible, conjure up and image of the word in your head, then picture yourself nibbling on the word. (Silly activities are often the most effective.)
10.設(shè)想自己正在做一個易錯詞匯匹配的游戲。比如，如果你對edible的拼寫存在疑問，在腦海中想象這個詞匯的拼寫，然后想象自己一點點將單詞啃掉的畫面。（最簡單的活動往往是最有效的。）
