Applying The Principles Of Deliberate Practice

阅读体会

Since we read this book, we are getting to know more and more specifically on what deliberate practice is. As in chapter one, the author tells us that

one particular approach to practice and training has proven to be the most powerful and effective way to improve one's abilities in every area that has been studied.

And this is deliberate practice. The "practice" refers to more than purposeful practice in these two aspects: (1) the field of this practice should be reasonably well developed (2) the practice requires a teacher or coach to help improve your performances. In the author's words:

Deliberate practice is purposeful practice that knows where it is going and how to get there.

词语学习

Coaxing just a single acceptable note from a violin -- one that doesn't screech or squawk or whistle, one that is neither flat nor sharp, one that captures the tone of the instrument -- requires a great deal of practice, and learning to play that single note well is just the first step in a long and challenge journey.

coax 及物动词,to make something such as a machine do something by dealing with it in a slow, patient, and careful way

例句:The driver coaxed his bus through the snow.

造句:The ice artist is very carefully coaxing on his work.

screech vs. scream

screech 不及物动词和及物动词,to shout loudly in an unpleasant high voice because you are angry, afraid or excited,同义:shriek, scream

scream 不及物动词,to make a loud high noise with your voice because you are hurt, frightened, excited etc,同义:shriek

shriek -不及物动词, to make a very high loud sound, especially because you are afraid, angry, excited, or in pain; -及物动词, to say something in a high loud voice because you are excited, afraid, or angry

... so we thought it likely that their retrospective estimates of how much time they had spent practicing at various ages would be relatively accurate.

retrospective 形容词, related to or thinking about the past 回顾的; 回溯的

例句:What he was talking about is a retrospective study of 110 patients.

造句:Sometimes we do need a retrospective talk to look back for better moving on.
