We recycle rubbish , so why not language ? Recycling language means using vocabulary(词汇)that you have learned before again and again . However , unlike rubbish that piles up(堆积)in our environment , if we do not recycle language , we simply forget it . So how do you recycle language? There are basically three ways to do it .

The first is through reading . Go back to your favorite articles and read them once more . Just reread them and do not worry about each vocabulary item . If there are some that you are not sure about , make a guess and you will probably guess right .

After you have done this a few times, go back and read through what you have written, checking vocabulary functions. Don’t worry if you have made mistakes. You should learn from mistakes.网]
