If you are looking for a way to build your vocabulary, and as a side benefit help the hungry, there is a website for you!!   http://www.freerice.com is a website that helps your build your vocabulary.  There are 55 levels and your answers to the questions determine your level.  The questions range from very easy (level 1) to very difficult (level 55).  For every correct response, regardless of your level, you donate 20 grains of rice to hungry people.  The UN World Food Bank takes care of the rice donation and the banner ads at the bottom pay for the rice.  You do nothing but play the game and build your vocabulary!  It IS addictive, but well worth your time!!
