以下用《新概念英语》第二册第一课开始的两个句子来讲解图忆。这两个句子是:Last week I went to the theatre. I had a very good seat. The play was ……(汉语意思是:上周我去了戏院。我有一个很好的座位。戏很……)。如果用图忆来表示,就是这样的:
这幅图就是上面那两句英语的图忆表示。首先从图中左上角的实心圆点开始念。曲线从实心圆点出发后,遇到了时钟图符(就是椭圆中有两个指针的图符),表示这里有一个与时间有关的单词。对照那两个句子,得知这个单词是“last week”。然后,曲线又遇到人形图符(红×××符。中间粗重的一竖表示“I”),表示这里有一个与人有关的单词。对照句子,这个单词是“I”。继续沿曲线走,就会发现“go to”(用一双脚表示“去”)和“theatre”(用舞台来表示“戏院”)。于是,上述的这几个单词就组成了课文的第一个句子:Last week I went to the theatre。再往下,您已经明白了!当曲线遇到粗重的短横(或竖)线,表示课文结束。如果你想记住这个图像的话,可以把自己想象成图像中的那个人。
第一篇试用课文原文:Last week I went to the theatre. I had a very good seat. The play was very interesting. I did not enjoy it. A young man and a young woman were sitting behind me. They were talking loudly. I got very angry. I could not hear the actors. I turned round. I looked at the man and the woman angrily. They did not pay any attention. In the end, I could not bear it. I turned round again. ‘I can't hear a word!’ I said angrily. ‘It's none of your business, ’ the young man said rudely. ‘This is a private conversation!’

新概念英语第三册第3课 课文原文:Some time ago, an interesting discovery was made by archaeologists on the Aegean island of Kea. An American team explored a temple which stands in an ancient city on the promontory of Ayia Irini. The city at one time must have been prosperous, for it enjoyed a high level of civilization. Houses----often three storeys high----were built of stone. They had large rooms with beautifully decorated walls. The city was even equipped with a drainage system, for a great many clay pipes were found beneath the narrow streets. The temple which the archaeologists explored was used as a place of worship from the fifteenth century B. C. until Roman times. In the most sacred room of the temple, clay fragments of fifteen statues were found. Each of these represented a goddess and had, at one time, been painted. The body of one statue was found among remains dating from the fifteenth century B. C. Its missing head happened to be among remains of the fifth century B. C. This head must have been found in Classical times and carefully preserved. It was very old and precious even then. When the archaeologists reconstructed the fragments, they were amazed to find that the goddess turned out to be a very modern-looking woman. She stood three feet high and her hands rested on her hips. She was wearing a full-length skirt which swept the ground. Despite her great age, she was very graceful indeed, but, so far, the archaeologists have been unable to discover her identity.
