I have a very good dictionary.It has a lot of words.It gives a lot of meanings for each word.But I always read the first meaning of a word in the dictionary.I never read the other meanings,because I want to read my books quickly.
This morning,when 1 was reading a book,I came to a strange sentence. It looked easy first, but it wasn't. The sentence has six words: "Draw a picture of your house." I knew five words in this sentence, but I didn't understand one word. I didn't know "draw". I opened my dictionary and found the first meaning of "draw".It was "pull". I said to myself, "Now I know all the words and I think I can understand the sentence. " So I wrote the meaning of sentence, "Pull a picture of your house. " I read it, and "What does this mean?" I don't know. I don't understand it. My friend Mary read the new sentence which was just written by me. She laughed. She picked up my dictionary and talked to me. “Look, Nancy. The second meaning of ‘draw' is to make a picture with a pen, a pencil or chalk! So the sentence means: Make a
picture of your house with a pen, a pencil or chalk.”
I understood! I thought Mary is wonderful. And at last I knew how to use my dictionary.
