Here's How:怎么做：

1. Choose a subject area that interests you very much.

选择一个你感兴趣的话题。

2. Write a short introduction to the subject trying to use as many vocabulary words concerning the subject as possible.

写一个关于这个话题的简短介绍，尽量多地用上与这个话题有关的词汇。

3. Using your introduction, arrange the principle ideas concerning the subject into a vocabulary tree.

用你自己写的介绍整理出与此话题相关的主要概念，并制作一个单词树状图。

4. To create a vocabulary tree, put the subject at the center of a piece of paper.

在纸张中心写上主题名称来绘制单词树状图。

5. Around the central subject, put the principle areas relating to the subject. Example - verbs, descriptive adjectives, where, etc.

围绕中心话题，划分出与主题相关的几个区域，比如：动词、描述性形容词、地点等等。

6. In each of these categories, write the appropriate vocabulary. If you need to, write sub-categories.

在每一个分类下，写上恰当的词汇。如果有需要，可以细化你的分类。

7. Create the same vocabulary tree in your native language.

用母语绘制同样的树状图。

8. Your native language tree will be much more detailed. Use this native language tree as a reference point to look up new words and fill in your English tree.

母语的树状图会更详细些。用母语树形图作为参考，寻找新的单词填充英文树形图。

9. Rewrite your introductory essay concerning the subject taking advantage of the new vocabulary learned.

重写上面的介绍短文，用上新学的单词。

10. To make this vocabulary active, practice reading your essay aloud until you can present it by memory.

要想自如使用这些新单词，大声朗读你的短文直到可以背诵。

11. Ask a friend or fellow classmate to listen to your presentation and ask you questions about the subject.

找一个朋友听你的短文，并针对这个话题向你提问。

Tips:贴士

1. Remember that vocabulary goes from passive knowledge to active knowledge - this means that you need to repeat a word often before it becomes active vocabulary.

记住背单词都有一个从消极词汇到积极词汇的过程，即死记硬背到熟练掌握的过程，这就意味着要想熟练掌握一个单词，你要反复地记忆。

2. Be patient with yourself, it takes time for this process to work.

对自己有耐心，这个过程需要时间。

3. Try to always learn vocabulary in groups of words instead of random lists. In this manner, words are related to each other and are more likely to remembered over the long-term.

试着从词句间学习新单词，而不要对着词汇表学习。这样，学到的词汇就可以互相联系，也更能够长时记忆。

你要用到的只有：纸张、字典和笔。就是这么简单粗暴，还不行动起来吗？
