Having a dictionary means that you will never be stopped for a word. It can prevent a lot of embarrassment (尴尬) if you’re having a conversation 14 an English speaker and forget a word in the middle of the 15 — all you have to do is taking a second to look it up!
Aside from preventing embarrassment, 16 the word you need and then immediately using it in a sentence will actually help you 17 the new vocabulary.
It is also helpful to have a dictionary for reading in your spare time, like 18 you’re sitting on the bus, waiting to cross the street or just having a cup of tea. You 19 learn an extra 20 to 30 English words per day by using this method!

If you put your history notes under your pillow (枕头) and sleep on them the night before an exam, will you do any better in the exam Most of us have hoped this may help. However, knowledge can’t go through the pillow into your brain. But that doesn’t mean you can’t learn while you are asleep.
Scientists aren’t exactly sure how it works, but they have discovered that the brain can learn things during sleeping hours.
In one experiment (实验), researchers gave German speakers some Dutch words to learn. Then, they divided them into three groups. The researchers played the Dutch words for people in Group 1 while they were asleep, without telling these German speakers what they were doing. The sound was low so it didn’t wake them up, and only the newly introduced words were used.
Another group listened to the same words while they were awake. The researchers found the people in Group 1 were better able to identify (识别) and translate (翻译) the words later. This was true only for the words that were played while they slept. The third group listened to the words when they walked. The walkers didn’t have the same success in remembering the words as the sleeping group.
The researchers later found that people had more slow-wave brain activities all over the night. They said that more slow waves made people have a better memory for the new words.

I had learned English for 11 years, but I knew few English idioms(习语). When I went to study in America last year, I had trouble communicating with Americans at times.
One day, I asked my roommate Kevin, “Shall we play soccer tomorrow ” He answered, “Let’s play it by ear.” I was so puzzled(迷惑的). “Ear can play soccer ” I asked. He explained, “It means let’s see how things go. The weather report says tomorrow is rainy.”
Last October, I was waiting for the bus in a station. Beside me sat a young man. When he knew I was Chinese, he asked me something about the Great Wall. I told him, “The Great Wall is more than 20,000 kilometers long.” The man said, “You don’t say.” I was surprised. “There must be something wrong with him,” I thought. Later, I knew he meant “Really ”
I was once invited to my classmate’s home. His mother said to me, “Break your ice, please.” I wondered, “You didn’t give me any ice.” Later my classmate told me she meant I could make myself relaxed in their home.
From then on, I realized English idioms had special meanings. It was wrong to translate them word by word.
