I learned a lot of good words that can be useful for me in a lot of situations such as English proficiency exams， writing emails and papers， etc。This book contains not only commonplace words but also two sentences and one synonyms for each one。I firmly suggest that read this book with help of memrise。com。

It would be better that the main words of the book have pronunciation。 Therefore， we could learn the vocabularies properly。

Barron’s vocabulary book is similar to other TOEFL vocab books， like Princeton Review’s TOEFL Power Vocab。 It is mostly just lists of words and definitions。 In this case they are divided into 30 “lessons” of about 15 words each。 The words selected for each lesson don’t seem to be based on similar themes or structures。While Princeton Review’s book includes a short quiz every few pages， Barron’s includes ten actual TOEFL reading question （vocabulary type， of course） at the end of each lesson。 I ca Barron’s vocabulary book is similar to other TOEFL vocab books， like Princeton Review’s TOEFL Power Vocab。 It is mostly just lists of words and definitions。 In this case they are divided into 30 “lessons” of about 15 words each。 The words selected for each lesson don’t seem to be based on similar themes or structures。While Princeton Review’s book includes a short quiz every few pages， Barron’s includes ten actual TOEFL reading question （vocabulary type， of course） at the end of each lesson。 I can’t really say if the questions are accurate， but I don’t think that is the point。 They mainly serve to help students understand the meaning and usage of each word。 And， yeah， I guess they help students understand what a vocabulary question looks like and how it is put together。The words here seem a bit more difficult that in Princeton Review’s book thankfully。 Some of them are still too easy， though。 I guess teachers should glance at the book before assigning it to see if the overall level is suitable for their students。 I would probably recommend it for students scoring 90 and below。 。。。more

Whether or not this book might prove useful rather depends on the English level of the student。 I suggest that both independent students and teachers browse through the pages and assess if the presented vocabulary serve the intended purpose before buying / recommending it。

I used this book as an online course in memrise。com:https://www。memrise。com/course/131980。。。This course includes audio pronunciation and images for each word which helps the memorizing process。 Words in this book are of course essential for the TOEFL exam and very practical for everyday English language usage。 I used this book as an online course in memrise。com:https://www。memrise。com/course/131980。。。This course includes audio pronunciation and images for each word which helps the memorizing process。 Words in this book are of course essential for the TOEFL exam and very practical for everyday English language usage。 。。。more
