I think it’s best for passage reading to be able to replace words you don’t know with synonyms. Instead of memorizing definitions of words, I memorize synonyms. I replace “holistic” with “comprehensive” and “flamboyant” with “flashy.” Some words like “misanthropic” are harder to substitute, so then I’ll just memorize the definition.
