English Proficiency in Reading - Gürcan Günay, Mustafa Demir

PREFACE

In learning a foreign language, there are certain challenges like learning its grammatical structure,

adopting a correct pronunciation pattern and most importantly acquiring as many useful words to

be able to communicate with as possible. Just as the construction workers lay the foundation of a

building as the initial step, someone hoping to learn a language needs to obtain the fundamentals

of that language first – its grammar. However, learning process of grammar does not last very

long, taking up just a few months at the longest. What’s more, grammar should never remain on

the surface of the learning medium, pushing the language learner to become grammar-oriented

and grammar-conscious at the very beginning of the language learning process. Instead, grammar

should be embedded in the learning material, concealed somewhere in the background, and

must be acquired subconsciously. Namely, grammar of the language is not something a language

learner should worry about that much. The main problem will continue to persist even after spending

several years in the target language: vocabulary! Enrichment of vocabulary is the problem of

almost all foreign language learners. Even if you have studied a single word for tens of times, the

next morning when you see that word again, you may not be able to remember what it means and

you get mad at yourself. However, that is quite a natural experience for every language learner

and you are not the first person to experience this and won’t be the last either.

Enriching vocabulary in the target language requires a set of systematic study techniques. In the

very first place, memorization, the most commonly referred technique by most language learners,

is in fact the most obsolete and unfruitful method, as any memorized word is just like a word written

on the sand by the ocean. Only a few seconds will be enough to wipe memorized words out

of your mind. Yet most language learners, unknowingly or helplessly, or just because think it is the

best way to acquire even more words, resort to this technique. Even after several months, they

end up with a small set of words left in their minds from a few thousand targeted words.

This being the case, what should a language learner do to overcome this problem? The answer is

so simple: Get involved in the language you want to learn, love it, be a part of it and always do live

together with it! To do this, you have to live in the language, not go around it. You should do a lot of

reading every day, without coming up with daily excuses. What’s more, you should read texts not

in your academic field only or those that appeal to you, but also texts that you don’t have any taste

in. You have to see any unknown word over and over in several texts and contexts. Remember,

contextual learning is the best and most meaningful learning ever. Retention of words in the mind

is only possible through living the language rather than just wanting it.

HOW TO EXPLOIT THIS BOOK?

This book is specially designed for English learners of at least intermediate level. It provides

you with hundreds of selected words of high frequency and enables you to see any single word

in several different contexts, even with its various word formations. Every unit begins with a

paragraph with a different topic, involving twelve target words that have been underlined for you

to take notice of.

As the first step, you are to read the paragraph without getting stuck to minimal details and

try to comprehend the overall message. While doing this, you should overlook any word or

words that you already do not know. Upon reading the text once, you will come across a reading

comprehension part, in which you will be asked various kinds of reading proficiency questions. As

you are trying to answer these questions, you may need to refer to the text again.

The vocabulary section of every unit is made up of different vocabulary exercises, involving

various tasks to be covered. The first exercise of each unit (Exercise A) asks you to guess the

meaning of target words that have been underlined in the text. Yet, you are to try to guess the

meaning of these words, not asked to refer to a dictionary. In the second exercise (Exercise B),

you are given ten sentences, each with a blank space. What you will have to do here is to fill in

every blank with one of these target words to complete each sentence meaningfully.

Now is the time to get a dictionary to complete Exercise C, where you will see a table to complete

with other forms of the given words – nouns, adjectives, verbs, adverbs. While trying to complete

this table, try not to refer to a dictionary at the very first step. Just try to come up with as many

words as you can from your current vocabulary storage. As for the next step, you may need to

refer to a comprehensive advanced dictionary. In Exercise D, you will be given a new set of 10

sentences to be filled with appropriate forms of the target words. This task will, make sure, be

quite a challenge for you. If you are deep in trouble finding the right word and its appropriate

formation, again you may get help from a dictionary.

The next two exercises are matching type exercises. Exercise E will ask you to match the target

words with their synonyms. For sure, you can’t know all the synonyms of any word, but you may

already know at least one or two synonyms from the given set. As you make the correct match

for every target word, remember to focus on the ones that are new to you as well. In Exercise

F, perhaps the most meaningful one to be covered for real life experiences, you will be asked to

match every target word with its possible collocations. This exercise will give you the opportunity

to get acquainted with the most common possible collocations of each word.

For the final part of each unit, you will be asked to translate the text given at the beginning. As you

have already studied the paragraph and particularly the target words over and over throughout

the unit, it will possibly be less challenging for you to come up with an approximate translation.

Once you have finished your own translation attempt, you can see how well you have done by

comparing your translation to see what it must be like at the end of every unit.

The answers to each exercise are given at the back of the book. But do please remember not to

jump to these pages to escape from challenges. Answer key section is provided for you to check

your answers after you have fully covered all the tasks in the unit.

In the appendix section, you are given two synonym dictionary sets – most frequently used verbs

and adjectives. These two sets are specifically designed to focus your attention to most frequent

words rather than words of very low or no frequency at all.
