最近在Quora 看见一篇文章，他回答了如何提高英语词汇量。
原标题是 How can I improve my English vocabulary？
原文：
Here are two tricky ways to do it!
1- There is a website called TED, on this website you will find hundreds of TED talks which are some people are talking about good accomplishments or spreading their knowledge about something.
The good thing about TED talks is that every speaker has 5-20 minutes to tell what he wants, so they pick the words carefully and Every sentence has a value.
Every TED talk has subtitles in almost every language, I would recommend that you watch the talk first with subtitles of your mother tongue language. then watch it again with English subtitles, then again without any subtitles.
This would help you enrich your language
TED: Ideas worth spreading
2- People always keep telling you to read books and novels in English to improve your language, And this is a good way actually. but I think It is not a good way to start with, because you will get bored after the first 50 pages.
My advice to you is to read the small and simple English articles, because articles are small and you can finish it in a 20 minutes maximum
So you will learn about a new thing which the article is talking about and also enrich your vocabulary about that topic
And for this, I would recommend a very amazing app for smartphones called " Pocket ". This app recommends every day to you the funniest and most helpful articles from different websites and journals. Also, you can save the articles and read them offline. You can use the app or the online website
By the way, Something I usually do, Every morning I read a new article and then record my self-reading this article, and listen to my voice. This way helped me a lot to improve both " Reading and Speaking "
I hope this was useful for you
我觉得这个文章挺有用的
然后自己翻译了一下，毕竟挺简单的。
可是我水平有限，翻译不足之处欢迎指教。
这里有两个狡猾的方法来提高词汇量
一．有一个网站叫做TED，在这个网站你将发现数百个视频，视频里一些人谈论好的成就或者传播一些知识。
这些TED演讲每个演讲者有5-20分钟来表达他们想说的，所以他们慎重的组织他们的语言，每一个句子都很有价值。
每一个TED演讲有几乎每一种语言的字幕，我会建议你加载你的母语第一遍看的时候，然后再用英文字幕看一遍，然后把字幕去掉再看一遍。
二．人们总是告诉你读书和看英文小说来提升你的语言，然而这通常是一个好办法，但是我认为它在一开始并不是一个好方法，因为你在50页之后会感觉无聊。
我对你的建议是阅读短而简单的英语文章，因为文章是短小的并且你能在20分钟内看完。
所以你会学到这个文章所谈论的新东西，也丰富了你在这方面话题的词汇。
说到这，我要推荐一个令人非常惊讶的应用叫做”Pocket”这个应用程序每天向你推荐最有趣和有用的来自不同的网站和期刊的文章。此外，你可以保存文章和离线阅读。你可以使用这个应用或者在线网站。
顺便说一下，有时，我通常会做。每天早上我读一篇新的文章然后录我自己读的文章，我听我自己的声音，这个方法帮助我在阅读和演讲方面一起提高。
我希望对你有用！
