Academic vocabulary

Dear 6AB1 students,

The article and video I have just posted are about the reading topic I talked about in today's lesson. I strongly recommend you to go and take a look. You can then know more about the issue of "digital divide".

There was a classmate of yours telling me her problem of learning new English words. I here try to recommend a good website from PolyU to you all. This website contains some lists of words that you should be able to know at this stage of learning. There are a total of ten lists. For each word you can click on the links to get a definition, example sentences, pronunciation and a Chinese translation. I think the website is handy for you if you want to start learning new words more systematically.

Try your best to make use of the website.

Regards,
Mr. Fu

Here's the website:
