　　Dictionary

　　The dictionary is living teacher. Whenever you come across a new word, just consult it and you will get a clear definition from it. Every student, no matter attending school or self-taught, should always have a dictionary at hand. As a study aid, it is convenient, inexpensive and all-knowing.

　　Skills will develop with your constant use of various dictionaries. The more you use them, the more familiar you will become with them. Sooner or later, you will be quite skilled in finding the page, scanning the entries and locating the exact meaning of the new words.

　　But you should have one thing mind. As a language student, you should never depend too much on dictionaries. Basic language skills do not come from dictionaries, but from your practice. For some extensive reading, for example, you need not account to a dictionary every time you encounter a new word, you could just guess the meaning and skip it. Learn the language by listening, speaking, reading and writing more, and that is the only way to the mastery of a language.

　　字典

　　字典是一個(gè)活老師。當(dāng)你遇到新的單詞時(shí)，可以查字典你會(huì)找到非常清楚的定義。不論是在校學(xué)習(xí)還是自學(xué)，每個(gè)學(xué)生都應(yīng)該手頭準(zhǔn)備一本字典。作為一個(gè)學(xué)習(xí)工具，字典非常方便、便宜而且知識(shí)全面。

　　經(jīng)常使用各種字典你的查字典能力就能夠提高。用的次數(shù)越多，你就會(huì)越熟練。你會(huì)非常熟練地找到需要的頁(yè)面，瀏覽目錄并快速找到你需要的字。

　　但是你需要記住一件事情。作為學(xué)語(yǔ)言的學(xué)生，不能太依賴(lài)字典。語(yǔ)言技能不是從字典中來(lái)，而是通過(guò)不斷的練習(xí)。比如在泛讀時(shí)，你不需要一遇到生詞就查字典而是通過(guò)猜測(cè)它的意思并跳過(guò)它。通過(guò)聽(tīng)說(shuō)讀寫(xiě)的練習(xí)來(lái)學(xué)習(xí)語(yǔ)言，只有這樣你才能真正掌握一門(mén)語(yǔ)言。
