A good dictionary should be up-to-date and easy to understand．Make sure the definitions （定義） are written in clear English．I strongly recommend Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English as there is good coverage of spoken and written English，British and American English，as well as clear example sentences．
Make notes of new words．But before you write them down on you notebook，you should look them up in the dictionary and make sure you are aware of any grammatical information．（2）

When you write down the new word in your notebook，try to include an example sentence in English．
Organize your notes into themes．Some people find it very helpful to do so．（3）

For example，you can have one page containing words which have something to do with houses，while another page containing words relating to jobs，and so on．

The next time you have spare time，skip through your notebook．Choose a page where you have already stored a number of words and expressions，cover the page and try to remember what you wrote．Then look at the page and see how many words you have remembered．
When you find a new word，check to see if you can use it in other ways．English is a flexible language-nouns，verbs and adjectives often share the same root．（5）

A．Review the words in your notebook．
B．Have good English dictionaries．
C．Read books that contain some new words．
D．Look up new words and phrases in your dictionary．
E．For example，love，lovely，beloved and loveless all share one root．
F．For example，if you are looking up a verb，check to see if it can be used in a passive form．
G．So rather than have a list of words without any obvious connection，you can divide your notes into themes．
