hi,

most of time when i read a paper or a magazine, i find a lot of words that i don't understand the meaning of. what do you suggest i do? look the word in a dictionary every time i come across one? i just don't think it's a good idea. i think it's a boring and exhausting process. any suggestions? thank you all.

Continue reading the article and try to figure out what they mean in context. Highlight the words that give you trouble. Afterwards, look up the words you don't know and then reread the article. You'll begin to associate the words with their meanings and you'll probably recognize them in the future.
