　　[01:33.11]How to Build Your Vocabulary

　　[01:35.15]Effectively

　　[01:36.48]Good morning. In today's lecture,

　　[01:39.26]we shall discuss the strategies

　　[01:41.27]of learning English vocabulary.

　　[01:43.50]When we talk about

　　[01:44.68]learning English,

　　[01:45.83]we usually mention

　　[01:47.07]the four basic skills—

　　[01:48.62]listening, reading,

　　[01:49.77]speaking and writing.

　　[01:51.34]However, all of these skills

　　[01:53.26]cannot be sharpened

　　[01:54.38]without vocabulary.

　　[01:55.95]While there are not

　　[01:57.66]any magic shortcuts

　　[01:59.21]to learn words,

　　[02:00.34]the larger

　　[02:00.98]your vocabulary becomes,

　　[02:02.61]the easier it will be

　　[02:04.16]to connect a new word

　　[02:05.37]with the words

　　[02:06.17]you already know,

　　[02:07.05]and thus remember its meaning.

　　[02:09.24]So your learning speed, or pace,

　　[02:12.56]should increase

　　[02:13.20]as your vocabulary grows.

　　[02:15.08]There are some basic steps

　　[02:16.88]to build your vocabulary

　　[02:18.32]effectively.

　　[02:19.41]First of all,

　　[02:20.72]be aware of words.

　　[02:22.51]Many people are surprised

　　[02:24.47]when they are told

　　[02:25.76]they have small vocabularies.

　　[02:27.10]They protest

　　[02:28.45]that they read all the time.

　　[02:30.33]This shows that reading alone

　　[02:32.03]may not be enough

　　[02:33.47]to make you learn new words.

　　[02:35.50]When we read a novel,

　　[02:37.41]for instance,

　　[02:38.21]there is usually a strong urge

　　[02:40.20]to get on with the story

　　[02:41.59]and skip over unfamiliar

　　[02:43.08]or perhaps vaguely known words.

　　[02:45.79]But while it is obvious

　　[02:47.37]when a word is

　　[02:48.41]totally unknown to you,

　　[02:50.12]you have to be

　　[02:51.07]especially aware of words

　　[02:52.56]that seem familiar to you

　　[02:54.71]but whose precise meanings

　　[02:56.66]you may not really know.

　　[02:58.08]Instead of avoiding these words,

　　[03:00.30]you will need

　　[03:01.13]to take a closer look at them.

　　[03:02.96]First,

　　[03:03.85]try to guess at a word's meaning

　　[03:05.66]from its context—

　　[03:06.96]that is,

　　[03:07.98]the sense of the passage

　　[03:09.28]in which it appears.

　　[03:10.98]If you focus on learning words

　　[03:13.15]in the context

　　[03:14.13]where you're most likely

　　[03:15.30]to find them,

　　[03:16.20]you're more likely

　　[03:17.01]to recognize them

　　[03:18.09]when you encounter them

　　[03:19.27]or need to use them again.

　　[03:20.98]Second,

　　[03:21.97]if you have a dictionary on hand,

　　[03:24.35]look up the word's meaning

　　[03:26.17]immediately.

　　[03:26.82]This may slow down

　　[03:28.36]your reading somewhat,

　　[03:29.93]but your improved understanding

　　[03:31.98]of each new word

　　[03:33.13]will eventually speed

　　[03:34.35]your learning of other words,

　　[03:36.30]making reading easier.

　　[03:38.49]Third, make a daily practice

　　[03:41.15]of noting words

　　[03:41.81]of interest to you

　　[03:42.86]for further study

　　[03:44.27]whenever you are reading,

　　[03:45.67]listening to the radio,

　　[03:46.95]talking to friends,

　　[03:48.27]or watching television.

　　[03:50.70]Second, read as often

　　[03:53.17]and as much as possible.

　　[03:54.64]When you have become

　　[03:56.04]more aware of words,

　　[03:57.63]reading is

　　[03:58.50]the next important step

　　[03:59.84]to increase

　　[04:00.64]your knowledge of words,

　　[04:02.02]because that is

　　[04:03.20]how you will find

　　[04:04.32]most of the words

　　[04:05.31]you should be learning.

　　[04:06.32]It is also the best way

　　[04:08.39]to check on words

　　[04:09.68]you have already learned.

　　[04:10.89]When you come across a word

　　[04:13.02]you have recently studied,

　　[04:14.48]and you understand it,

　　[04:15.88]it proves

　　[04:16.83]that you have learned its meaning.

　　[04:19.19]Then what should you read?

　　[04:21.20]Whatever interests you—

　　[04:22.93]whatever makes you want to read.

　　[04:24.98]If you like sports,

　　[04:26.38]read the sports page

　　[04:27.92]of the newspapers;

　　[04:29.15]read magazines

　　[04:29.99]like Sports Illustrated;

　　[04:31.69]read books

　　[04:33.28]about your favorite athletes.

　　[04:34.61]If you are interested

　　[04:36.42]in interior decorating,

　　[04:38.78]read a magazine

　　[04:39.65]like House Beautiful—

　　[04:41.02]read it,

　　[04:41.92]don't just look at

　　[04:43.02]the photographs.

　　[04:44.14]Often people with

　　[04:46.05]very small vocabularies

　　[04:47.16]don't enjoy reading at all.

　　[04:49.29]It's more of a chore for them

　　[04:51.15]than a pleasure

　　[04:51.93]because they don't understand

　　[04:54.02]many of the words.

　　[04:54.89]If this is the way

　　[04:56.74]you feel about reading,

　　[04:58.24]try reading easier things.

　　[05:00.35]Newspapers are usually easier

　　[05:02.97]than magazines;

　　[05:04.50]a magazine like Reader's Digest

　　[05:06.77]is easier to read

　　[05:08.37]than The Atlantic Monthly.

　　[05:10.00]There is no point

　　[05:11.46]in trying to read something

　　[05:13.68]you simply are not able

　　[05:14.66]to understand

　　[05:15.63]or are not interested in.

　　[05:17.53]The important idea is

　　[05:19.66]to find things

　　[05:21.13]you can enjoy to read,

　　[05:22.14]and to read as often

　　[05:23.55]and as much as possible

　　[05:25.05]with the idea

　　[05:26.25]of learning new words

　　[05:27.71]always in mind.

　　[05:29.34]Third, use a dictionary.

　　[05:32.03]Keep it where you usually

　　[05:33.63]do your reading at home.

　　[05:34.82]You are more likely to use it

　　[05:37.26]if you do not have to get it

　　[05:38.83]from another room.

　　[05:39.69]At work,

　　[05:40.85]there may be a good dictionary

　　[05:42.92]available for your use.

　　[05:44.63]At home,

　　[05:45.75]most people do not have a big,

　　[05:48.14]unabridged dictionary;

　　[05:49.33]however,

　　[05:50.17]one of the smaller collegiate

　　[05:51.98]dictionaries

　　[05:52.67]would be fine to start with.

　　[05:54.43]Remember, words can have

　　[05:56.70]more than one meaning,

　　[05:58.01]and the meaning

　　[05:59.01]you need for the word

　　[06:00.19]you are looking up

　　[06:01.27]may not be the first one

　　[06:03.02]given in your dictionary.

　　[06:04.91]Even if it is,

　　[06:06.36]the other meanings of the word

　　[06:07.78]will help you understand

　　[06:09.21]the different ways

　　[06:09.84]the word is used.

　　[06:11.41]Also, the word's history,

　　[06:13.41]usually given near

　　[06:14.73]the beginning of the entry,

　　[06:16.22]can often give

　　[06:17.16]a fascinating picture

　　[06:18.38]of the way

　　[06:19.41]the word has developed

　　[06:20.75]its current meaning.

　　[06:21.83]This will add to the pleasure

　　[06:24.11]of learning the word

　　[06:25.16]as well as help you remember it.

　　[06:27.40]Fourth,

　　[06:28.33]study and review regularly.

　　[06:30.97]Once you have begun

　　[06:32.51]looking up words

　　[06:33.51]and you know

　　[06:34.47]which ones to study,

　　[06:35.42]vocabulary building

　　[06:36.81]is simply a matter of

　　[06:38.58]reviewing the words regularly

　　[06:39.87]until you fix them

　　[06:41.16]in your memory.

　　[06:42.23]This is best done

　　[06:43.93]by setting aside

　　[06:45.16]a specific amount of time

　　[06:46.74]each day

　　[06:47.28]for vocabulary study.

　　[06:49.14]During that time

　　[06:50.60]you can look up new words

　　[06:52.33]you have noted during the day

　　[06:53.83]and review old words

　　[06:55.10]in the process of learning.

　　[06:56.87]Set a goal

　　[06:58.34]for the number of words

　　[06:59.70]you would like to learn

　　[07:00.74]and by what date,

　　[07:01.84]and arrange your schedule

　　[07:03.70]accordingly.

　　[07:04.69]In order to review words

　　[07:06.46]effectively,

　　[07:07.27]all the information on a word

　　[07:09.78]should be kept in one place—

　　[07:11.81]in a notebook, for example,

　　[07:13.57]or on an index card.

　　[07:16.13]Index cards are convenient

　　[07:17.95]because the words can be placed

　　[07:20.02]in alphabetical order,

　　[07:21.42]which makes them easy

　　[07:23.18]to find when reviewing;

　　[07:24.61]and the cards

　　[07:26.24]can be carried around with you,

　　[07:27.72]so you can study them anywhere.

　　[07:30.04]OK, today we have focused

　　[07:32.96]on four basic steps

　　[07:34.59]to assist us

　　[07:35.61]in the vocabulary-building

　　[07:36.69]process.

　　[07:38.12]Next time, we will continue on

　　[07:40.08]how to use

　　[07:40.76]vocabulary building aids

　　[07:42.89]such as books, tapes, or CDs.

　　[07:45.13]Thanks for your attention.

　　[07:48.37]Now, you have THREE minutes

　　[07:50.12]to check your work.
