不要急著先看答案
不要直接去查英文單字中文的意思，可以先去查英英字典。
看看單字的英文解釋、例句。去猜英文單字的意思。
這樣可訓練理解力，在找答案的過程中，也可對這個
單字更印象深刻，去推測可能的字義。
這個訓練很有用，因為你永遠都會遇到新單字。

然而我的理解力，就在一遍又一遍的猜測，反覆閱讀
中越練越精準。這對我後來學英文，有很大的幫助。
在學英文的過程當中，我從沒看過中文翻譯，除了查
字典以外。可是我在查字典之前，早已約略推測出句子的
大意，這樣查字典才不會查錯。如果整句完全不懂，恐怕
很難靠字典一個個字查出意思。
這樣的學法，讓我比較不會發生「中式英文」的情況，
雖然我真是太晚學英文了。終生之恨啊
在我與讀者的交流之間，常發生這個問題，如果我說
得很直白，有時會得罪讀者；如果客氣一點講，又會陷入
lexical ambiguity. 因為每個人都是從他的想法去理解，
往往我不得不用警告的口氣說：「如果你過去的想法讓你
學不好英文，也許你應該換個想法。」
許多詞彙，有許多不同的解釋，各種排列組合都有可能
。唯有先抓大義，好像在林子裡先弄清東西南北的方向，再
依方向找路，大致上不會出錯。但如果你先找路，再想從
路中尋方向，誰知道這路會延伸到哪兒去。所以我教讀者
不要先看內文，一定要先聽個七遍到十遍，抓出大意，再去
追究細節。
