Answer:

The best answer to the question: Which of the following is NOT a good way to use a dictionary while reading a piece of literature, would be, 3. Look up every word you do not know.

Explanation:

Although it is important while reading a piece of literature in which not all the terms are clear to the reader, to use a dictionary to clarify some of them, it is definitely NOT a good idea to be looking up EVERY single word that is unknown. The reason is that first, the reading becomes non-fluent, and the person becomes tired soon. The second reason is that there are other strategies that can be used in order to guess the meaning of the words in a text, by using context, and clues, and which allow the reader to also follow the thought process and the concepts being displayed by the author. A final reason is that in English, the meaning of a word is usually best understood by comprehending the context in which it is used. When the reader becomes attached to dictionary meanings, sometimes he/she may understand the word as explained by the dictionary, but not as it is actually used in the text.

D. Remember the words you do not know, and look them up when you have finished reading.
