I've pasted some basic information copied from http://www.whitesmoke.com/synonyms.html :
My own personal suggestion (also) is in bold below. Good luck to you!
[ "When replacing a word with its synonym, make sure the meaning of the sentence in the specific context is maintained as well. Synonyms are defined according to certain senses of words.
For example:
This is my senior year at University.
Senior in this sentence cannot be replaced with the words elder or older, since the meaning of the sentence will change and will make less sense.
However, senior in the sense of fourth year can be replaced with the word last and the meaning will remain the same as in the original sentence.
Good speakers and writers often vary their vocabulary and so can you!
The best way to expand your vocabulary is to use a thesaurus. A thesaurus is a source that provides you with a listing of similar or related words you can choose from in order to vary your word choice in your text."
