范文
Title: Dictionary
(1) The dictionary is a living teacher.
(2) Skills will develop with your constant use of various dictionaries.
(3) But you should have one thing in mind.
Dictionary
The dictionary is 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 develop with your constant use of various dictionaries. The more you use them, the more familiar you will become with them. Sooner or later, you will be quite skilled in finding the page, scanning the entries and locating the exact meaning of the new words.
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 need not account to 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.
译文
字典
字典是一个活老师。当你遇到新的单词时，可以查字典你会找到非常清楚的定义。不论是在校学习还是自学，每个学生都应该手头准备一本字典。作为一个学习工具，字典非常方便、便宜而且知识全面。
经常使用各种字典你的查字典能力就能够提高。用的次数越多，你就会越熟练。你会非常熟练地找到需要的页面，浏览目录并快速找到你需要的字。
但是你需要记住一件事情。作为学语言的学生，不能太依赖字典。语言技能不是从字典中来，而是通过不断的练习。比如在泛读时，你不需要一遇到生词就查字典而是通过猜测它的意思并跳过它。通过听说读写的练习来学习语言，只有这样你才能真正掌握一门语言。
