Love words. You have to really want to learn new vocabulary if you're going to succeed.

首先，要愛(ài)上“單詞”這個(gè)東東。

Look up words you don't know whenever you encounter them. After encountering and looking up a word several times, you should eventually be able to remember its definition.

記憶學(xué)家統(tǒng)計(jì)過(guò)，一個(gè)單詞你遇見(jiàn)6次，就會(huì)永生不忘。

Use a Thesaurus. A thesaurus is a great resource which enables you to know the more advanced equivalent of basic english words.

詞典是法寶！

Read. Read all genres of books. When you come across a word you don't know, read the sentences around the word and try to figure out what it means from the context. Check your guess with a dictionary. This doesn't mean you should start reading medical textbooks or other books with lots of new words on every page. Set aside time each day to sit down with your book. Enjoy yourself!

閱讀永遠(yuǎn)是提高詞匯量的必經(jīng)之路。

Play word games with friends. Try Boggle, Scrabble, or Catch-Phrase. There are so many great games out there to teach you new words. If a friend comes up with a word that you don't know, ask them what it means.

玩游戲也有大幫助哦！

Use the words you learn when you're talking to people or writing letters or e-mail. Using your new vocabulary is not only fun, but a great way to remember all these new words. Try to use at least three new words a day when communicating with anyone.

活學(xué)活用，舉一反三永遠(yuǎn)是硬道理。

Learn roots, prefixes, and suffixes. Many words in the English language come from Latin or Greek words. When you combine these Latin or Greek words, you get new words in English. For example: astro ("astron" meaning "star") + logy (logos meaning "speech") = astrology (meaning "telling of the stars").

學(xué)習(xí)詞根，前綴和后綴，離成功就近了一半！

Find a friend who speaks English. It's good to practise using your new words. With a web connection, your conversation partner does not need to live near you. You can email, chat, and even phone each other using your computers. A friend who understands that you are learning can help you practice, use new words in your conversations, and offer you advice. Since talking to a friend is fun, it won't feel like work! If your friend wants to learn your language, too, it will be easier for both of you to understand each other's mistakes.

練習(xí)永遠(yuǎn)是王道，趣味性的練習(xí)讓你更上一層樓！

Listen to the radio, watch television, or find a podcast that you like in English, and practise understanding the language when spoken, too.

一切能用來(lái)練習(xí)的機(jī)會(huì)都不要錯(cuò)過(guò)哦！
