How to Know Yourself Better
Most of us believe we know ourselves better than anyone else in the world. In fact, many people are still strangers to themselves. From now on, know yourself better.

Pay attention to what your family, friends, teachers and classmates say about you. Sometimes, other people who see you from their points of view can let you really know yourself.

Did you know that vocabulary (词汇) is more important than grammar? If you have good vocabulary, you can communicate successfully, even if the grammar is not completely perfect.
However, one common problem is learning new words and then forgetting them. So when you want to use a new word in a conversation, you can’t remember it at that moment. Does this often happen to you? The reason for this difficulty is that most students try to learn vocabulary by studying lists and dictionaries and remembering the words. But it may not work if you don’t have a very good memory.
The best way to learn vocabulary and remember the words successfully is to learn new words and use them at once. You can do this with a very simple exercise. Every time you learn a new word, for example, from an English lesson or an article, write it down in your vocabulary notebook. Writing is more active than just reading a definition (释义). You should write the word, the definition in English or translation, one example sentence from the article or dictionary and one example sentence that you create.
Imagine(想象)you just learn the word “generous”, write in your vocabulary notebook: generous (adjective), definition—giving or willing to give freely. Example one, from the article: Thanks for paying for my dinner, you’re very generous. Example two, my example: My brother is generous because he volunteers at the animal shelter (收容所) on weekends. It’s best if your example sentences are true to your life, because this creates a personal connection with the new word. The next day, read your vocabulary notebook again and try to add one more example sentence using the new word. It’s helpful for you to remember it. These two simple steps—writing the word and using it at once—help you remember and use new words.
Do you have a vocabulary notebook? If not, start now.
( )1. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The problem. B. The new word. C. The conversation. D. The dictionary.
( )2. How can we make the best example sentences according to the writer?
A. By asking for help from friends. B. By explaining words’ definitions.
C. By connecting them with our life. D. By adding words from the article.
( )3. What’s the best title(主题)for the passage?
A. Tips for Translating Words B. Advice on Using Grammar
C. Abilities of Creating Examples D. Ways of Learning New Words
