Questions
Why are there no pictures until I answer?
A picture would give the answer away. Reading the English cold is the point: it makes you retrieve the meaning from memory, which is the step that actually builds recall.
How does this help me learn electronics in English?
Recognising that three words share a topic and a fourth doesn't means you have to know all four, not just one.
