You've been learning words since you were a tiny baby. At first, you learned them only by hearing other people talk. Now that you're a reader, you have another way to learn words. What should you do when you come to a word and you think you don't know what it means?     1    .

Say it

First sound it out. Then say it to yourself.     2    . Sometimes you know a word in your head but you don't know what it looks like in print. So if you match up what you know and what you read - you have the word!

Use context

If this doesn't work, take the next step: look at the context — the other words and sentences around it. Read this sentence: When it rained, the dog looked for shelter in the doorway.     3    . Rain and in the doorway might give you helpful information.

    4    

If the context doesn't help, look at the parts of the word. Does it have any parts you know? These can help you understand what it means. If you don't know the meaning of miner, try looking at parts of the word. You might know that a mine is a place underground where people get coal and other valuable things. A lot of times, -er at the end of a word means "a person who does something". So a miner might be someone who works in a mine.

Look it up

If the three steps above don't work, you can look it up.    5     — either a book or online.

Nobody knows the meaning of every word, but good readers know how to understand words they don't know.

A.Use word parts
B.Look at the words
C.It might sound like a word you know
D.You can find the word in a dictionary
E.Following some easy steps can help you
F.If the word shelter doesn't look familiar. look at the words around it

【推荐1】A good memory is often seen as something that comes naturally, while a bad memory as something that cannot be changed.

    1    

Take an interest.

We all remember the things we are interested in, and always forget the ones that bore us. This explains the reason why schoolboys remember football results easily but struggle(挣扎) with dates from their history lessons!

    2    

Repeat things in chunks.(块)

Repeating things in chunks is the best way to remember things for a short time.

    3    

The following numbers would be impossible for most of us to remember: 1492178919318483. But look at them in “groups” or “chunks” repeatedly and it becomes much easier:149 217 8919 318 483.

Invent a story.

    4    

In experiments , people were asked to remember up to 120 words using this way. When they were tested later , they could remember about 90% of them. The test result was really amazing!

Take physical exercise

    5    

Exercise also lowers stress. As we know ,too much pressure is very bad for the memory.

【推荐2】There are about fifteen hundred languages in the world. But only a few of them are very important. English is one of them. Many, many people use it, not only in England and the USA, but also in other parts of the world. About 200,000,000 people speak it as their own language. It is difficult to say how many people are learning it as a foreign language. Many millions of people are trying to do so. Is it easy or difficult to learn English? Different people may have different answers. Have you ever noticed ads(广告) of this kind in the newspapers or magazines? “Learn English in six weeks, or give your money back…” “Easy and funny…” “Our records and tapes help you master English in a month”. Of course, it never happened quite like that.
The only language that seems easy to learn is the mother tongue. We should remember that we all learned our own language well when we were children. If we could learn English in the same way, it would not seem so difficult. Think of what a small child does. He listens to what people say. He tries what he hears.
So it is hard to say that learning English is easy. We must do a lot of practice. And practice needs great efforts and takes much time. Good teachers, record, tapes, books, and dictionaries will be helpful, but they cannot do the student’s work for him.
1. How many languages are very important in the world?

2. If we want to learn English well, what shall we do?
A.We should study it without any help.
B.We must do a lot of practice.
C.We need to get much money back.
D.We must live in England or America.
3. How does the writer like the ads in the newspapers or magazines?
A.He thinks the ads very expensive.
B.He thinks the ads are true.
C.It never happened quite like what the ads said.
D.He believes” Learn English in six weeks, or give your money back”.
4. Which language is easy to learn?
A.EnglishB.Chinese
C.JapaneseD.The mother language

When you ask the way, you need to ask politely. You can say “Excuse me” and “Thank you”. He or she can be very happy to help you. Asking the right person is also important. The police can be good.
