241.   英語單字的記憶探討(三)    New Year Resolution (二).      新年決志(二)          1/6/2021

我们在天上的主耶穌基督，求祢饒恕。孩子在今年再次決心悔改，求祢讓我重新做人，得稱為祢順命喜愛的孩子。求祢賜下恩典及智慧，使孩子能向世人作見證， 祢是上帝的兒子，為我們贖罪祢死在十字架上; 為我們得以釋放和自由祢從死裡復活。孩子誓死要跟隨祢。奉主耶稣基督的名祈祷。 阿们。

记单词的目的是学英语，特别是在中學阶段，建立學英語基礎的時候。語言是自然賦予人的本能，母語的學習本其成長的過程，而毫無困難。 但是學習外國語言，却是另外一回事， 正如余光中老師所說，它是不講理的。除了跟隨前人 指導的方法漸進帶著耐性的去學習外，據編輯者的學習經驗，實在是沒有捷徑。
