听L68课音频每天一至两遍
《新概念英语》是世界闻名的英语教程。这套经典教材通过完整的英语学习体系，帮助学生掌握英语的4项基本技能——听、说、读、写，使学生能在学习中最大限度地发挥自己的潜能。此第一册《First Things First英语初阶》的学习对象为英语初学者，共有72个教学单元、144课。学习者学完后可以达到初级以下和初级的英语水平，若想继续提高，可以接着学习2、3、4册。
要想背好《新概念英语》所有课文，要做到以下几点:
第一点:利用每天早上的时间背诵前一天背诵的课文。
第二点:利用空闲时间重复背诵以前的课文，哪怕只是其中的几句都可以。
比如今天背诵第一课，明天背诵第二课。第三天背诵第1、2课，第四天背诵第三课，如此往复。
第三点:每天听新概念英语课文原文录音，也许你现在不能完全记住前面背过的课文，时间长了，这些录音都会深深地印在你的脑海中，自然而然也就记住了。这需要一个过程。录音非常重要，必须天天听!
第四点:不要抱着强烈的目的性去背诵，比如说为了短期内提高自己的水平，为了应付考试等等而背诵，好像完成任务一样。那样的话，用不了几课书就会把你累得筋疲力尽。始终要保持"兴趣原则"，"兴趣"是最好的老师!
第五点:《新概念英语》每篇课文都堪称是微型小说，市面上再也找不到这么好的短文欣赏了。所以，要从欣赏的角度去理解背诵，这样就不会感到枯燥了，当然水平也是在不知不觉中突飞猛进。
第六点:对于《新概念英语》中课文篇幅较长的，要分段背诵。人的大脑在一天中能记住的句子最大限度只有8句话，我们缩短一些，只背5句，滚瓜烂熟。第二天再背诵其他的。当天背得越多，忘得也越多。这就是很多人背得快，忘得也快的原因。只记住表层，没有深入骨髓。
第七点:利用电脑、或手写默写课文。好脑子不如烂笔头。
第八点:当你背诵时，感到自己进入了最佳状态时，好像只要看一遍后面的课文，就能立刻背诵下来时，要强制自己不再背诵了。把这种激情保留到明天去。蓄势待发，才能更加应付得轻松自如。
