怎样增加词汇量 vocabulary ？这可真的是英语学习中最重要也是最困难的问题。What do you suggest, Sian">Sian">Sian">Sian, in your experience of teaching?

My immediate response would be to read as much and as broadly as possible. This is perhaps the most reliable way of increasing your vocabulary.

虽然很多人都知道阅读 reading 的重要性。但正如 Sian">Sian">Sian">Sian 所说，我们要尽可能多和尽可能广泛地去阅读 read as broadly as possible 不能局限。Sian">Sian">Sian">Sian, could you just give us a few examples?

Sure, I would suggest reading novels to start with, even children’s classic novels, these are usually fairly short, have large prints and are written in simple clear English. They are usually funny, uplifting and full of vocabulary that we can use in daily conversations and writing.

Sian">Sian 建议我们从小说甚至是儿童小说读起，由于儿童小说一般篇幅较短，遣词造句很简单，字也印得较大，但是却生动有趣，而且是日常生活和书写中要用到的最基础和最基本的词汇。我相信当我们和英国人聊天的时候，这还能给我们提供良好的素材和话题。

As you read a novel, keep a list of new words you see and also notice how they are used in a sentence. So they make sense to you. Then you have a much better chance of remembering them and using them correctly.
