When you are reading something in English, you may often meet a new word. What’s the best way to know it?
You may look it up in the English-Chinese dictionary. It will tell you something about the word: the pronunciation (发音), the part of speech (词性), the Chinese meaning and also how to use this word. But how can you know where the word is in thousands of English words? How to find it in a dictionary quickly?
First, all the English words are in the alphabetical order. In the dictionary, you can first see the words beginning with the letter A, then B, C, D, E…that means, if there are two words “do” and “put”, “do” will be certainly before “put”. Then if there are two words both beginning with the same letter, you may look at the second letter. Then the third, the fourth…for example, “pat” is before “picture”, “bald” before “balloon”.
Do you understand how to look up a word in a dictionary?
The dictionary will be your good friend, and we can learn better from it. I hope you’ll use it as often as possible in your English learning.

Below is a housing guide for students going to London.
University accommodation(住所) office

Accommodation companies
They usually have a large number of accommodations. A good company can save your time in looking for the right accommodation quickly.
Notice boards
Around the universities you will find a number of notice boards. These will either be from landlords or from students. Some universities also have online notice boards where students can advertise to other students.
