We recycle rubbish, so why not language? Recycling language means using vocabulary that you have learnt before again and again. However, unlike rubbish that piles up 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.

The second way to recycle is through writing. Look at some of your favorite articles and write either a short paragraph or a few sentences in your own words. 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. That's how you learn.

The third way to recycle language is by having an imaginary chat with yourself about your favorite articles at home. You can pretend there is someone with whom you speak English and tell him what you are thinking about or how you feel.

1.According to the passage recycling language means _________________.

A.repeating vocabulary at times B.learning new vocabulary as much as possible

C.revise you vocabulary at a proper time D.using vocabulary that we have learnt very often

2.Which is not right according to the passage?

A.If we make mistakes when writing, we should learn from them.

B.If there are some new words when reading, we can guess their meanings.

C.If we recycle language, we cannot remember it easily.

D.If we practice reading, writing and speaking language, we will remember it easily.

3.What is the best title for the passage?

A.How to learn vocabulary. B.How to recycle language.

C.Why do we learn vocabulary. D.Why do we recycle language.
