1. The associative memory method associates new knowledge with previously learned knowledge, using stories or diagrams to connect different words. For example, associate "happy" with "flower" and "sunshine" to form a picture of "picking flowers in the sun and feeling happy".
2. Contextual memory method puts vocabulary into sentences or short articles and understands and memorizes them through context. For example, when learning "climate", you can read a short passage about the climate of different regions to deepen your understanding of the word.
3. The root and affix memory method is used to infer the meaning of new words by learning the root and affix. For example, "un-" means negation, such as "unhappy" and "unknown"; "-less" means none or nothing, such as "hopeless" and "homeless".
4. Make a card memory method. Write the new words on one side of the card and the meaning on the other side. Read it over and over again to enhance your memory. You can add your own notes or annotations to the cards.
5. Music and memory techniques use music or songs to aid memory. For example, put the words to a familiar melody, or choose English songs related to the learning content to learn new vocabulary and expressions.
6. Image mnemonics convert words or concepts into vivid images for easier memory. For example, think of "elephant" as a giant elephant with a long trunk and big ears.
7. The story memory method connects the vocabulary or concepts that need to be memorized into an interesting story. For example, connect several country names and capitals to form an interesting travel story.
8. Sleep and memory methods make full use of sleep cycles to enhance memory. Review what you have learned that day before going to bed. Your brain will organize and consolidate this information during sleep, which will help form long-term memory.
9. Review and repetition method Regularly review what you have learned to ensure long-term memory. Review can be done in different ways, such as reading, listening to recordings, doing exercises, etc.

11. Body and Memory Method
Action mnemonics: Strengthen memory through physical movements related to words or sentences. For example, when learning the word "dance", you can simulate dancing movements to help remember it.
Sensory memory method: combine vision, hearing, touch and other senses to remember. For example, when learning vocabulary to describe the weather, you can feel the changes in temperature by touching different types of clothing.
12. Emotion and memory methods
Emotional association memory method: associate emotions with words, and recall words through emotional triggers. For example, when learning emotion-related vocabulary, you can recall similar emotions you have experienced to deepen your memory.
Emotion regulation memory method: Improve memory efficiency by adjusting your emotional state. For example, taking deep breaths or meditating before studying to put yourself in a relaxed and focused state can help improve memory.
13. Associative memory method
Strange association memory method: connect words with strange and absurd scenes or things to form a deep impression. For example, associate "cat" with "hat" and imagine a scene of a cat wearing a hat.
Meaning association memory method: connect words with known concepts or experiences to deepen memory through meaning relationships. For example, when learning "apple", you can connect it with "fruit" to form a classification relationship.
