There is no other answer to this Question but one reading. The more you read the better vocabulary you acquire. But students these days are juggling with School or college alongside their preparation for competitive exams and other extracurricular activities which leaves no or little room for reading. Hence the need for the second-best solution and that is practice. The more you will come across the word the longer the retention. In this book I have provided 50 sessions each has 20 words followed by exercises like true - false, match the following, fill and the blank and multiple-choice question. The intention is to expose you to the same word sufficient number of times so it sinks in your memory. This book also a diagnostic test to help U gauge your current knowledge. One test after 5 sessions to check your progress. Though this book will be helpful for students taking competitive exam. It can be recommended to 6th grade or above as it will lay the foundation for what is ahead. It can be used by readers at large who want to acquire chic words and use them correctly and confidently.
