If your clear intention is to add a thousand or more new words to your present vocabulary---- add them permanently, unforgettably ---- add them so successfully that you will soon find yourself using them in speech and writing, I advise you to take full advantage of this book by carefully following the laws of learning:
1.
Each chapter of this book may take one half hour to an hour and a half depending on the amount of material and on your own speed of learning. Do one or two chapters at a time. And always decide when you stop exactly and when you will return.
Do Not Rush
2. Everyone learns at a different pace. Fast learners are no better than slow learners. It’s the end result that counts, not the time it take you to finish.
Review
When you start a new chapter, go back to the last exercise of the previous chapter, cover your answer, and test your retention（记忆力） 3.
Test Yourself
You are not aiming for a grade. Or putting your worth on the line , when you take the Three Comprehensive Test (chapter 8, 13 and 17). 4. You are deciding where repairs have to be made. Especially, you are experiencing a feeling of success at work well done. Use these 3 tests as well as the abundant drill exercises , which aids to learning. No one is perfect and no one learns in the exact same way. 5. And then give yourself every opportunity to exploit your actual and potential abilities.
But most importantly, develop a routine and stick to it!
A. Remember to preview
B. Schedule your learning
C. Go at your own comfortable speed
D. Actually your discovering your weakness if any.
E. Real learning goes on only through active participation.
F. Find your best technique and speed for your unique learning patterns.
G. Do you have a quick recall after a day or you simply forget everything.
