你那样练肯定没用的。还是背词典最好，能增加词汇量。另外周末去参加外教的课，巩固语法，这叫双保险。
nǐ nàyàng liàn kěndìng méiyòng de 。háishì bèi cídiǎn zuì hǎo ，néng zēngjiā cíhuìliàng 。lìngwài zhōumò qù cānjiā wàijiào de kè ，gǒnggù yǔfǎ ，zhè jiào shuāng bǎoxiǎn 。
Studying that way is useless. It's still best to memorize words from the dictionary. You can increase your vocabulary. On top of that, you can attend some classes taught by a foreign teacher on the weekend and solidify your grammar. That's what I call, 'double insurance'.
