Features: The postgraduate entrance exam is the dream of many students, and for many candidates, the English section of the exam is the challenging beginning of that dream. A good vocabulary book is a stepping stone for candidates to achieve their dreams. After the publication of "Postgraduate English Vocabulary: Root + Association Memory Method," numerous students and readers contacted New Oriental through letters. I was delighted to see that this book fulfilled my original intention of writing it: the root + humorous association memory method helped students remember postgraduate vocabulary more effectively. However, many students also mentioned that "Postgraduate English Vocabulary: Root + Association Memory Method" was too thick and had a large format, making it inconvenient to carry. The idea of memorizing words anytime, anywhere, could not be realized. Additionally, the alphabetical arrangement of the original book made it difficult for some students to distinguish the difficulty and importance of the words.
Therefore, we introduced "Postgraduate English Vocabulary: Root + Association Memory Method (Portable Edition)"— the sister volume of "Postgraduate English Vocabulary: Root + Association Memory Method." The portable edition inherits the practical and humorous memory methods and clear, concise explanations from the original book, emphasizing test tips to help candidates allocate their time more effectively. At the same time, the portable edition further optimizes the memory method of "Postgraduate English Vocabulary: Root + Association Memory Method," primarily using root and affixes to memorize words. It forms a systematic, flexible, and practical memory method by splitting words, using phonetic associations, and connecting words with each other. Moreover, in addition to listing the meanings of words, this book underlines the tested meanings of the words to help candidates grasp the key points of the exam.
