LEC法律英语复习方法LEC 法律英语复习方法1、如何阅读推荐教材？请考生首先通过阅读《法律英语证书LEC考试大纲》了解考试内容、题型及难度。

考试大纲附录一的样卷能够帮助考生测试自己的法律英语水平，考生可以根据测试结果，制定合理的复习计划。

《法律英语综合教程》针对LEC考试第一卷的内容，帮助大家系统地学习美国法的基本知识，考生需反复细心研读。

在阅读《法律英语写作》一书时，请考生重点掌握律师信函、法律备忘录和案件辩论书的写作格式。

这三本书是备考LEC的重点。

法律翻译能力和案例阅读能力是一个长期积累的过程，考生可以通过多做练习来提高。

我们建议考生多做一些标准法律文本的翻译练习，以及多阅读一些英文案例的原文。

在做翻译和阅读练习的同时，加强法律专业词汇的积累。

专业词汇的积累反之能够促进法律翻译和案例阅读水平的提高。

以上是我们在对考生答题情况进行分析总结的基础上，为考生如何阅读教材提供的一些建议，也希望考生能够通过不断学习总结出适合自己的法律英语学习方法。

法律英语考试LEC考试美国法基础知识Sources of lawIn the United States, the law is derived from four sources. These four sources are constitutional law, statutory law, administrative regulations, and the common law （which includes case law）。

The most important source of law is the United States Constitution. All other law falls under, and is subordinate to, that document. No law may contradict the Constitution. For example, if Congress enacts a statute that conflicts with the Constitution, the Supreme Court may find that law unconstitutional, and declare it invalid.Notably, a statute does not disappear automatically merely because it has been found unconstitutional; it must be deleted by a subsequent statute. Many federal and state statutes have remained on the books for decades after they were ruled to be unconstitutional. However, under the principle of stare decisis, no sensible lower court will enforce an unconstitutional statute, and any court that does so will be reversed by the Supreme Court. Conversely, any court that refuses to enforce a constitutional statute （where such constitutionality has been expressly established in prior cases） will risk reversal by the Supreme Court.。
