　　The electronic thing I found useful is an Electronic English-ChineseDictionary This gadget was given by my granny on my 18th birthday. Itshandy, glossy, light weight, and super thin.

　　外觀

　　It has a PDA style interface, where I could write an unknown character, then have the dictionary magically tell me what it was.

　　為何選擇

　　Id say that it was in high school that Ive really felt the urge to get oneto help with my English learning. I had this gadget with me everywhere inthe last 3 years of my high school. As I mentioned, its completelyportable and very light weight, so its easy to put into my back pocket.

　　為何有用

　　The dictionary includes not only definitions, but plenty of usage examplesand sentences. It contains great idiomatic and colloquial phrases, both forUS and UK Englishin addition to the more standard used meanings.Also, the word search history list makes it very easy to jump back to aword you looked up earlier, making it a very valuable study tool.

　　Its popularity amongst young people also has had a persuasive effect onme. I personally think my electronic dictionary is the single bestinvestment.
