Specify the number of words for each day to master， and use the rules of memory， and review systematically words that learned previously. The use of root memory， associative memory and other methods will improve the efficiency of vocabulary memorization. For example， the root of the word ‘-gamy means marriage， ‘ exo-， this affix is a variant of the affix ‘ ex-， which means ‘outward.So ‘exogamy means ‘Intermarriage with foreigners. Thats the root-memory method. The most interesting method of memory is associative memory. For example， there are two words， ‘fragrant and ‘flagrant. The difference between two words is just one letter， but It means the opposite. The former means ‘smells well and the letter means ‘smell bad. There are two ‘r in the fragrant， which like two flowers， so this word means ‘smells well. The ‘l of ‘flagrant looks like some kind of fertilizing tool， so this word means ‘smells bad.endprint
