文摘 It's hard to learn vocabulary from a dictionary or thesaurus.Word Power is nota dictionary or thesaurus.We’re talking real life here.We want to empower youwith a vocabulary you can fully understand and use.We want you to ace yourstandardized test or have a great vocabulary for the workt，lace.Dictionaries are great，but they’re often hard to understand.For one thing，theytry to tell you how to pronounce a word，but unless you know the meaning ofa lot of symbols，you can get awfully confused.Second，they do reveal all themeanings of a word，but rarely in any sort of context.Thesauruses have another problem，They can be quite mi~eading.Too manyreaders assume the words listed after the key word mean precisely what thatkey word means，which is utterly untrue.The words are onlY possiblealternatives.The people who put the thesaurus together have no idea what youwant an alternative for,so they cover their bases by giving you all sorts ofpossibilities.You're supposed to choose the one that best works for you.Here'san example：Which works best？Not heightened.Heightened speaks to mounting intensity.That's not wrong，but it’s not the golden fleece either.It doesn’t quite mean“gets worse？’Exacerbated does.Buthowdoyouknowwhatwordworksbestforyou？Youreadthisbook.Thenwhen you look up a word in a thesaurus，you’11 murmur as you run your eyesover the list，“Nope，not quite what I mean.Ah…yes，I forgot about that word.
