Solution

  1. Step 1: Look at the Words (for one minute):
    Carefully read and try to visualize or create mental associations with the words:

    • crust, tremendous, lava, crater, volcanic, tsunami, island, extinct, disaster, dormant, eruption, plume, inland, molten, active, coast.
  2. Step 2: Write Down the Words (from memory):
    After closing your book or screen, write down as many words as you can recall.

Group the words by categories to make them easier to remember. For example:

  • Volcanic terms: crust, lava, crater, volcanic, eruption, plume, molten.
  • Natural disasters: tsunami, disaster, dormant, extinct, active.
  • Geography: island, inland, coast.
  • Descriptive words: tremendous.

By associating words with their meaning or categories, recalling them becomes simpler.
