附：背单词的实用方法之构词分析法
汉字的偏旁部首是同部字的共同形旁，同时它们还起着共同的表意作用。在 相、盯、看、睿、瞥 这组字中，有一个共同的构成部分 目 字，它不仅使每个字都具有用眼睛观看的基本意义，还使这组字成为同部字。像汉字由偏旁部首组成一样，许多英语单词也是由词根、词缀按照一定的逻辑联系构成的。单词数量虽然浩瀚如海，但常用的词根、词缀数量和汉字的`偏旁部首差不多，只有二三百个。若利用词根、词缀对英语单词进行构词分析和解形释义，单词既好认又好记，词义一目了然。如果像归纳分析同部汉字那样归纳分析同根的英语单词，还可举一反三，触类旁通，很快地记住一组组的单词。这方面，构词分析法与汉字的 以形说义 有异曲同工之妙，可以说是英语单词的 说文解字 之二。
词根是一个单词的核心部分，它表示单词的基本词义。有的词根能单独使用而成为单词，叫做 自由词根 或 根词 。前缀是加在词根或单词前面的部分，它具有一定的含义，能改变、限制或加强词根和单词的含义。前缀的表示方式是在字母或字母组合后面加一短横，如 in-。后缀是加在词根或单词后面的部分，对词根和单词的意义进行补充。常用的后缀有名词后缀、动词后缀、副词后缀和形容词后缀四种形式。后缀的表示方式是在字母或字母组合前面加附一短横，如-er。中缀是在单词里起连接作用的字母或字母组合。
1 advise vt. 劝告，建议 〔前缀ad-对、向，词根vis看，-e动词后缀;就某件事应该如何做向别人提出自己的看法〕
2 invisible a. 看不见的，无形的〔前缀in-不、无，词根vis看，形容词后缀-ible可 的;不可能被看见的〕
3 revise vt. 复习，修改 〔前缀re-再、又，词根vis看，-e动词后缀;为了究错而再次查看〕
4 television n. 电视，电视机 〔词根tele远，词根vis看，-ion名词后缀;通过电波由远处传来可供观看的图像〕
5 visual a. 看得见的，视觉的 〔词根vis看，形容词后缀-ual 的;看得见的〕
注意：①同一词根或词缀有变体形式，词根、词缀也存在着同形异义、异形同义的情况。②读者在初学时不宜孤立地背记词根和词缀，要在常用词汇的构词分析中循序渐进，日积月累地学习和记忆词根、词缀等构词知识，否则越学越糊涂。凡是能用词根和词缀记忆的单词，《三三速记》丛书都一一进行了详细的构词分析，读者可以在潜移默化的过程中牢记那些难以掌握的词根和词缀
