“Vocabulary” means the words of a language. To learn vocabulary, you need to check four things.
Spelling
To learn a word, you need to how to spell it. You can try the LCWC(look, cover, write, check)method(方法). First, look at the word and read it out loud. Next, cover the word so it can’t be seen. Then, write the word down. Finally, uncover the word and check if you’ve spelt it correctly.
Pronunciation
How do you pronunciation a word? Do you pronounce it the same way as you spell it? If so, you may pronounce it wrong. For example, the pronunciation of “ough” is different in each of these words: “through”, “bough” and “rough”. You also need to know where the stress(the strong sound) is in a word.
Meaning
You need to keep in mind that words often have more than one meaning in English. Take the word “dust” for example. If you dust the bedroom, you are removing the dust. The first “dust” is a verb meaning “to clean”; the second “dust” is a noun meaning “the things being cleaned away”.
Use
How do you use a word? D o you know if it is formal? Do you know what other words it can use with and when? An example is “ yours”. You can use it to show possession(拥有), as in “ This book is yours.” And you can also use it at the end of a less formal letter, e.g. “ Yours, Peter Brown.” At the end of a formal letter you can use it with “Sincerely”, though generally in America the use is “Sincerely yours,” and in the UK, it is “Yours sincerely”.

Sixteen years ago a boy gave me an important gift. It was a smile.
It was the early autumn of my first year at a middle school, and my old school was far away. As a result, no one knew who I was. I was very lonely, and afraid to speak to anyone. Every time I heard the other students talking and laughing, I felt my heart break. I couldn’t talk with anyone about my problems.
Then one day, when my classmates were talking happily with their friends, I was sitting at my desk unhappily as usual. At that moment, a boy entered the classroom. I didn’t know who he was. He passed by me and then turned back. He looked at me, with a smile. Suddenly, I felt the touch of something bright and friendly. It made me feel happy and warm. That smile changed my life. I started to talk with other students and made friends. Day by day, I became closer to everyone in my class. The boy with the lucky smile has become my best friend now.
One day I asked him why he had smiled, but he couldn’t remember doing so!
It doesn’t matter because all the dark days have gone. I believe that the world is what you think it is. If you think it is lonely, you might always be alone. So smile at the world and it will smile back.

It was reported that over 300 million people in China were suffering from short-sightedness(近视).As more children suffer from eye trouble, their parents hope to cure the disease with medicine or equipment by correcting the way children read and sit. But in fact the care given to one’s eyes should start with the exercise on one’s feet. Three methods to protect eyes are as follows:
Firstly, don’t fasten (系)your shoes too tightly(紧地). Try wearing loose socks or walking bare-footed(赤脚)at home. When traveling, try wearing cloth shoes.
Secondly, walking on tiptoes can help improve one’s eyesight and prevent short-sightedness. Figures show that few ballet performers are short-sighted.
Thirdly, rope skipping is good for one’s eyesight. When skipping ropes, one has to react (反应)quickly, which excites the brain as well as the eyes. It may also help make one grow taller.
Besides foot exercises, it is good to pull one’s ears. Pulling the ear 20 times is found to be a good way to reduce the pressure on one’s eyes quickly.
