It is very necessary for language learners to learn words when they learn a foreign language. However, they
learn words in different ways. Some learners make a list and put into it the meanings of new words in their
mother tongue, and try to learn them by heart. Others write one or two example sentences with each new word
to remember how to use the word in the right way. In order to remember words better, some learners even write
each word and its use on a small piece of paper and stick it somewhere in their house to learn it at any time. To
remember important words, some learners underline or highlight only the words they want to learn. Language
learners should try different ways of learning words so as to find out the best way for themselves.

After retiring, my uncle – a lover of the sea- took up a strange leisure activity: he spends most mornings at the
beach, looking for things that the sea sends ashore. He says: It’s a multi-beneficial leisure activity. I can get
some exercise, blending, picking up, and walking. I can breathe the fresh air and enjoy the vastness and
quietness of the sea. Sometimes I watch the children playing beach games and I feel years younger. At the same
time, I can also clean the beach. It’s a volunteer work, isn’t it? Many of the things I pick up from the beach are
still useful to someone. I clean them and sell them at the Sunday flea market in the town nearby. Do you know
of any leisure activity that pays? Mine does!
