Handling difficult vocabulary from "summary" of BREAK DOWN! Soal-Soal TOEFL by Eka Rahmat Fauzy,Fauzi Yudiashari,Lidya Cristina
When encountering difficult vocabulary in TOEFL questions, it is important to have strategies to overcome this challenge. One effective method is to break down the unfamiliar word into its smaller components. By identifying prefixes, roots, and suffixes, you can gain a better understanding of the word's meaning. For example, the word "unbelievable" can be broken down into "un-" (meaning not), "believe" (the root word), and "-able" (meaning capable of). This process can provide valuable insights into the word's definition. Another helpful technique is to look for context clues surrounding the difficult vocabulary. Oftentimes, the surrounding sentences or paragraphs can provide hints about the word's meaning. Pay attention to words or phrases that are related to the unfamiliar word, as they can offer clues about its definition. Additionally, consider the overall tone and theme of the passage, as this can also help in deciphering the meaning of difficult words. Utilizing a dictionary or online resources can also be beneficial when dealing with challenging vocabulary. Look up the unfamiliar word to get a precise definition and examples of its usage. This can help you comprehend the word in the context of the passage and improve your overall understanding of the text. Moreover, make a note of the difficult words you encounter during practice sessions and review them regularly to enhance your vocabulary skills. When practicing TOEFL questions, focus on improving your vocabulary through consistent study and exposure to a variety of texts. Reading extensively in English can help you become more familiar with different words and their meanings. Additionally, consider using flashcards or mnemonic devices to memorize new vocabulary effectively. By actively engaging with challenging words and employing various strategies, you can enhance your language skills and perform better on the TOEFL exam.
