Did you know that vocabulary （词汇） is more important than grammar？If you have good vocabulary，you can communicate successfully，even if the grammar is not completely perfect.
However，one common problem is learning new words and then forgetting them.So when you want to use a new word in a conversation，you can't remember it at that moment.Does this often happen to you？The reason for this difficulty is that most students try to learn vocabulary by studying lists and dictionaries and remembering the words.But it may not work if you don't have a very good memory.
The best way to learn vocabulary and remember the words successfully，is to learn new words and use them at once.You can do this with a very simple exercise.Every time you learn a new word，for example，from an English lesson or an article，write it down in your vocabulary notebook.Writing is more active than just reading a definition （释义）.You should write the word，the definition in English or translation，one example sentence from the article or dictionary and one example sentence that you create.
Imagine you just learn the word " generous"，write in your vocabulary notebook：generous （adjective） ，definition﹣giving or willing to give freely.Example one，from the article：Thanks for paying for my dinner，you' re very generous.Example two，my example：My brother is generous because he volunteers at the animal shelter on weekends.It's best if your example sentences are true to your life，because this creates a personal connection with the new word.The next day，read your vocabulary notebook again and try to add one more example sentence using the new word.It's helpful for you to remember it.These two simple steps﹣writing the word and using it at once﹣help you remember and use new words.
Do you have a vocabulary notebook？If not，start now.
（1）What does the underlined word "it" in paragraph 2 refer to？
A．The problem.B．The new word.
C．The conversation.D．The dictionary.
（2）What's the correct order of the following steps of taking vocabulary notes？
①Make your own example sentence.
②Write the word，its English definition or translation.
③Copy an example sentence from the article or dictionary.
④Read your notebook again and add one more example sentence.
A．②③①④ B．②③④①
C．③④②① D．③②①④
（3）How can we make the best example sentences according to the writer？
A．By asking for help from friends. B．By explaining words' definitions.
C．By connecting them with our life. D．By adding words from the article.
（4）What's the best title for the passage？
A．Tips for Translating Words B．Advice on Using Grammar
C．Abilities of Creating Examples D．Ways of Learning New Words

The Dragon Boat Festival，also called the Duanwu Festival，is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth month according to the Chinese calendar.The festival is famous for its dragon﹣boat races，especially in the southern places where there are many rivers and lakes.It's very popular.People always eat Zongzi and watch dragon boat races to celebrate the festival.The Zongzi is made of glutinous rice，meat and so on.（端午节活动）And Dragon Boat Festival is for Qu Yuan.He is an honest minister who is said to have committed suicide by drowning himself in a river.
Best wishes!
Yours， Li Hua
