    怎樣使用詞典?
    在閱讀英語材料時(shí)，你也許經(jīng)常遇到生詞，認(rèn)識(shí)它的最佳方法是什么呢?
    你可以查英漢詞典，它會(huì)告訴你單詞的讀音、詞性、漢語意思以及用法。可是怎樣才能迅速無誤地在詞典中查到它呢?首先，所有的英語單詞都是按照字母順序排列的。在詞典中，你首先看到以字母A開頭的單詞，接著是以B、C、D、E等開頭的單詞。這就是說，如果有兩個(gè)單詞“desert”和“pur，“desert”一定在“pull”的前面。其次，如果有兩個(gè)單詞以同一個(gè)字母開頭，你可以看第二個(gè)字母，接著是第三個(gè)、第四個(gè)，以此類推。例如，“pardon”在“plough’’的前面，“judge”在“just”的前面，等等。
    你現(xiàn)在會(huì)查詞典了嗎?
    詞典會(huì)成為你的好朋友，希望你在英語學(xué)習(xí)過程中要盡量經(jīng)常地使用它
