5. Understanding new words
While reading, do not use your dictionary each time you come across an unfamiliar word. Read the whole sentence. This will help you guess the meaning from the context.
It's important to guess the meaning of the word instead of using the dictionary because it helps to improve your learning skills.
So try to understand the meaning of the new words, then explain the words by giving definitions or synonym.
