　　Dictionary

　　The dictionary is a living teacher. Whenever you come across a new word, just consult it and you will get a clear definition from it. Every student, no matter attending school or self-taught, should always have a dictionary at hand. As a study aid, it is convenient, inexpensive and all knowing.

　　Skills will need developing with your constant use of various dictionaries. The more you use them, the more knowlege you will acquire from them. Sooner or later, you will be quite skilled in various fields and do many things with ease.

　　But you should have one thing mind. As a language student, you should never depend too much on dictionaries. Basic language skills do not come from dictionaries, but from your practice. For some extensive reading, for example, you don’t try to look up a dictionary every time you encounter a new word, you could just guess the meaning and skip it. Learn the language by listening, speaking, reading and writing more, and that is the only way to the mastery of a language.
