雅思听力考试出题的核心就是同义替换。其中同义替换的方式不止包括词与词的替换,还包括 句子 与句子的替换、词与句子的替换等。下面我们就一起来看一下雅思听力中同义替换的常见方式。
雅思听力中常见的同义替换方式
1、词性转换
这一类在雅思听力中比较常见,简单来说就是形容词、名词、动词等之间的互换。比如:benefit变成beneficial,flexibility变成flexible等等。对于这一类题目,考生要有更加全面地掌握,要学会使用词根词缀来记忆单词,常见表示的表示单词词性的后缀要记忆,如:-ion, -ment, -ness是名词后缀;-ate, -fy是动词后缀等。
如:Cambridge 8 test 1 section 4
Studying geography helps us to understand:
. the effects of different processes on the 1. of the Earth.
读题时,快速判断定位词为effect 和process,答案词为名词。这是一道section 4当中的题目,考生应该要有意识,音频中必然会进行大量的同义替换,尤其是当中的普通名词,形容词和副词等词性的词。果然音频中替换了effects的词性:We learn a great deal about all the process that have affected and continue to affect the Earth surface. 将名词换成了动词,答案是surface。词性之间的转换相较于其他的同义替换方式会简单一些,因为词根没有改变,所以单词的发音有很大一部分是相同或至少是相近的;此外这种方式还非常实用,此处笔者指的有用是在口语和写作两个输出项中。
2、 同义词 替代
这一种方式应该是雅思听力中最熟悉的同义替换方式,同时也是考生们在输出单项口语和写作当中运用较多的方式。同义词顾名思义就是用不同的单词或者词组来表示同一个意思。比如说consist of,可以用be made up of、be composed of、contains等等。这一类的词比重也是比较多的。>>>点击咨询雅思听力备考信息
如:Cambridge 7 test 1 section 1
Options:
. Car hire
-don’t want to drive
. 1.
Expensive
这是整套试题的第一个问题,难度系数应该所有40个问题中最低之一,但是仍不可掉以轻心,因为即使是在第一题,考官仍然设置了同义替换的考点。这道题定位词是car以及drive,在音频中改述成:you can always rent a car right here at the airport, of course. 当中的hire 换成了rent。这种改写方式几乎算得上是所有改写方式中最简单,挑战最小的一种,在形式上通常都很对称:词数一致,词性一致等,因此,考生较容易听辨出来。
3、解释说明
就是说话者没有直接说出这个词,而是用一段话来解释,将所表述的概念或者事物更加具体化。通常是用一个比较通俗易懂的例子来代替。
例如:剑四test3section2 14题
Where does Circus Romano perform?
A in a theatre
B in a tent
C in a stadium
录音原文:which is really like a canvas portable building, usually put up in a green space or car park.
通过句子翻译,描述的就是帐篷。所以此题选B
其实雅思听力中这类同义替换很常见,考生们如果能够很好的掌握同义替换的话,迅速发现其中的同义替换,不仅能够对雅思听力甚至阅读考试应对自如,同时也扩充了自己的词汇量,在写作和口语方面也会有好的帮助,也有助于了解考官的出题思路。
4、句型转换
常见的句型转换有,主动变被动,或者说用了不同的连词将句子的结构进行了调整或者前后颠倒。比如说 Since …, … 和 … because … 这两个都是我们比较熟悉的表示因果关系的句型,它们之间的区别就在于,前一个是since引导原因,后一个是because引导原因,所以出现了前后顺序颠倒的状况。所以考生应该尤为注意句型的转换。>>>与名师交流雅思听力考试 经验
如:Cambridge 4 test 1 section 2
12. The metal industry was established at Riverside Village by who lived in the area.
本道题在section 2 中,按说应该不会很难,但其实难度系数较高。在审题的过程中,有经验的考生马上能够意识到这个句子填空题的句子是个被动语,在音频中很有可能会变成主动语态。定位词是metal industry,题中缺少的是动作的施动者,在被动语态中,施动者被置于句尾;而在音频中句子改成了主动语态:At that time, local craftsmen first built an iron forge just behind the village here on the band in the river. 在主动语态中,动作的施动者置于句首,宾语 iron forge (替代 metal industry)在主语之后,这就意味着考生是先听到答案词local craftsmen,再听到定位词 iron forge,属典型的答案前置状况。相对于题目和录音语序一致的情况,主被动颠倒语序对于考生而言显然要难得多。但是,如果考生知晓听力中句子改写有主动变被动,被动变主动这种常用伎俩,则在审题时就能做好充分的预判,要得出正确答案就容易很多了。
同义替换在雅思听力中非常重要,掌握了同义替换的规律,你也就掌握了雅思听力的根本,一定要引起足够的重视。
突破雅思听力水平的五大练习 方法
第一、听
我们要明白:说出某种语言是一个有关听觉的问题。
语言不是用眼睛、而是用耳朵来学的东西。如果以学习某种学问的态度来学习语言,就不能真正地掌握它,因为它是一个纯粹的听觉系统的问题。各国语言在说的时候会产生不同的音域频率。耳朵的结构使它不能接受 其它 外来语言的频率,所以耳朵对其他的语言是封闭起来的,不能听也就不会说,听觉系统就是这么回事。如果你不能理解这一点,你就学不了语言。怎样才能打开平时对其他语言封闭着的耳朵,让它具有听懂那种语言的敏锐性呢?如果不能正确地解读声音信号,就不能把这些信号同化到谈话中去。所以我们需要大脑来工作,使它吸收听到的词语,予以译码以及进行再现。完整地听取声音信号是语言学习中最重要的一个环节,也是基础。这一点在学校的 英语学习 中是体会不到的,所以很多人往往学了10年英语还听不懂、不会说。如果你经常沉浸在英语的声音中,只需3个月,你会在某一天突然发现自己能够清楚地听懂英语了。
第二、想象
学习语言不是用左脑。用右脑学习,你就能非常简单地学会。
如果不知道这个秘诀,普通的 英语 学习方法 是很难真正掌握英语的。左脑是语言脑,右脑是图像脑。使用右脑的想象功能来学习,英语学习会变得非常容易。这就是关键所在。平时在我们想要记起什么来的时候,那个场面的图景瞬间就会浮现在眼前。比如我们想昨天晚饭吃的什么时,脑海中就会出现一幅昨日餐桌上的图景吧。这时,大脑并不是靠什么"吃了米饭、酱汤和汉堡"这样的语言来记忆的。那么,就让我们在 学习英语 时发挥自己的 想象力 吧。
第三、朗读和背诵
每天的朗读对英语学习是很重要的。每天读课本时要发出声音,争取能够背下来。坚持这样努力下去,记忆力 就一定会发生变化。过了3个月,你会突然发现有一条和以前大不相同的记忆回路打开了。
1. 每天出声朗读英语,英语的节奏就会逐渐渗透到你的身体深处。只有练习朗读才能够掌握英语的节奏,听和说才成为可能;
2. 每天出声朗读也是一种说的练习,它能够培养出你的"英语脑",使你能够按照朗读时的节奏和速度说出英语来;
3. 不断练习朗读,你会在某个时刻发现自己已经打开了完全不同的新的超记忆回路。然后你就会拥有超级记忆,甚至不需要再过6个星期。
第四、速看、速听、速记
右脑能够进行快速、大量的记忆。通过眼睛和耳朵尽可能快而多地获取信息,这样就能够促进右脑的活性化。速听就是用平常的2~4倍的速度来听。用这种方法来听 英语 故事 或单词,能够让你在短时间内迅速记住大量信息。快速读、听、记是一种三位一体的训练方法,即一边用眼睛快速地看教材,一边听以倍速播放的磁带,按照磁带播放的速度来看。这种方法能够提高脑神经细胞间的电流速度,所以信息的传递也会变快。这样,大脑的运转变快了,思考速度和记忆速度也都会变快。右脑的意识速度是左脑的100万倍,所以用左脑读书一分钟能够看400~600字,而用右脑速读则能用一分钟看完一本书,甚至能够把书中的内容从第一个词到最后一句一模一样地写出来。左脑的语言记忆是很容易忘却的,但是右脑的图像记忆能够让你过目不忘,并且以后随时能够想起那些图景。这是一种特殊的能力。
第五、听抄(写)练习
人刚出生时,能够听见160~20000赫兹音域内所有的声音,对自己听不惯的声音就设下关卡,不让它们进入耳朵。耳朵适应这些本来听不惯的声音只需要3个月,这就是为什么各国语言的发音都不一样的缘故。因为音域完全不同,所以听不懂别的语言,自然也就不会说了。"深层听觉(Deep Listening)"是多摩大学校长格里高利.克拉克所主张的一种听的方法。它的做法是:一边听着英语磁带,一边把听到的东西正确地写下来;把听了很多遍都听不懂的内容空在一边,等全部写完后再根据教材检查一下那些怎么也听不懂的地方,这样就能够提高英语的听力。深层听觉法中有几个需要注意的地方。第一是听音的障碍。深层听觉法需要每天认真坚持,起码要坚持3个月。3个月以后,你会在某一天突然发现听音的障碍已经消失了,自己已经能够听懂英语了。所以,听抄练习才是提高听力水平的最有效途径。
雅思听力核心题目的答题方法
干扰信息出现的情况如此多变复杂,我们的解决方法也不可能单一。有一大类的干扰信息的排除是可以在题目中就找到线索的,这就是我们所谓的限定词。通过仔细审题,找准题目中已经出现的限定词,可以帮助我们有效排除干扰。
1、限定词的定义
所谓限定词,就是在题目中出现,起到限定答案范围作用的词。换句话说,限定词可以帮助我们圈定答案范围,从而排除不符合限定的干扰信息。我们还是用一个例子来说明限定词的作用。
例4:
剑桥5 Test 4 Section 1
Intended length of stay: 3. ___________
原文:I’m planning on staying a year but at the moment I’m definitely here forfour months only.
答案:1 year
解析:我们可以从题目中的length of stay,预测出我们要填的是一个表示时间的答案。在原文中我们听到了两个时间:one year和four months。那么我们从何判断出哪个是正确答案,哪个是干扰信息呢?这时候就要看题目中的“Intended”了,这个词表示“计划、打算”,于是限定了我们的答案必须是“打算住多久”。显然原文中的“I’m definitely here for four months”并不符合题目要求,而“I’m planning on staying a year”才是我们要的答案。题目中的“intended”和原文中的“planning”同义转换了。在这里,“intended”就是限定词。很明显,如果我们没有注意到这道题中的限定词,是无法排除干扰信息的。
2、怎样发现限定词
确切的说,我们要学习怎么判断一道题目中有没有限定词,以及哪些是限定词。要在审题的短短几十秒内做到这点,需要大量的练习和经验。
1)、形容词
剑桥5 Test 4 Section 1
Maximum price: 9 £__________ a week
maximum表示最大,显然干扰信息一定都比正确答案要小。类似的词还有:minimum最小,most最多,least最小,major大部分的,minor小部分的,first第一,last最后,等等。
剑桥6 Test 3 Section 3
24 Jack thinks the music preferences of __________ listeners are similar.
看到similar,我们想到的恐怕不是same就是different吧!在这题中,same和similar同义转换,干扰信息就是表示different的内容。所以注意这个词就对了!
剑桥5 Test 1 Section 1
Next tour date 3 __________
原文中出现两个日期,一个是April 18th,一个是June 2nd,显然我们要填较近的那个日期。
通过以上例子我们可以发现,形容词作限定词的范围是非常之广的,但是显然,并不是题目中出现的所有形容词都是限定词。在判断限定词的时候,我们一定要记住,限定词的作用是缩小答案范围,那些只是单纯起修饰作用,没有限定作用,并且非常容易被替换的形容词,是无需注意的。比如:
剑桥4 Test 1 Section 1
good 1 _________
剑桥5 Test 3 Section 3
useful to have 24 _________
剑桥6 Test 2 Section 2
17 _________ essential
这三道题目中的三个形容词,不是被彻底替换了,就是在空后出现,还有的连替代词都没有出现。
2)、表示时间的词或 短语
在题目中出现表示时间的词的时候,常常意味着在原文中会出现好几个时间,只有符合题目时间要求的内容才是正确答案,其余都是干扰信息。比如:
剑桥6 Test 2 Section 2
13 Trains for London depart every _________ each day during the week.
剑桥5 Test 1 Section 3
Questions 24&25
What TWO types of coursework are required each month on the part-time course?
剑桥4 Test 3 Section 2
12. What will the reviewer concentrate on today?
剑桥4 Test 4 Section 4
37 The average number of sharks caught in nets each year is
A 15 B 150 C 1500
3)、表示地点的词或短语
表示地点的词和表示时间的情况相同,也要注意多个地点出现。
剑桥5 Test 2 Section 4
average daily requirement for an adult in Antarctica is approximately 37__________ kilocalories
4)、表示程度的词或短语
剑桥5 Test 2 Section 1
Fines start at 5 £_________
Computers can be booked up to 6 _________ hours in advance
剑桥5 Test 1 Section 1
8 Bookings must be made no later than _________ days in advance.
剑桥6 Test 3 Section 3
23 In total, the students must interview __________ people.
5)、附加条件
剑桥5 Test 2 Section 1
Cost to join per year (without current student card): 3 £_________
Numbers of items allowed: (members of public): 4 £_________
剑桥7 Test 4 Section 3
There will be 21 _________ minutes for questions.

在托福考试中有个比较词就是我们再熟悉不过的“than”对于这类题型成为比较级,那么在托福写作中运用比较级呢,一起跟着我了解一下具体情况。
比较级题型在托福写作中的运用
根据往年的题型,我们把托福写作题型中有比较词“than” 的题型称之为比较级题型,如下面题型所示:
It is more important for a teacher to help students gain self-confidence than to teach specific knowledge.(对于老师来说,帮助学生建立自信心比教授具体知识更加重要。)
It is more important for students to study history and literature than it is for them to study science and mathematics.(对于学生来说,学习历史和文学比学习科学和数学更加重要。)
Physical exercise is more important for older people than younger people.(体育锻炼对老年人来说比对年轻人更重要。)
Good looks and clothing are more important for success than good ideas.(要想获得成功,漂亮的长相和着装比好的思想更重要。)
Relating well with other people is more important to future career success than studying hard at school.(对未来职业成功发展来说,与他人搞好关系比在学校努力学习更重要。)
那么针对这类题型我们如何进行写作呢?下面我们以具体题型为例进行分析:
It is more important for a teacher to help students gain self-confidence than to teach specific knowledge.(对于老师来说,帮助学生建立自信心比教授具体知识更加重要。)
首先,我们可以采用一边倒结构,它适用于一般的托福 作文 。它通常是选择题目中的一个方面,进行赞同或反对论证。
如:
A1>B1;
A2>B2;
A3>B3;
也就是说,
开头段:引言(表明观点)
第二段:赞同理由之一
第三段:赞同理由之二
第四段:赞同理由之三
结尾段:结论(呼应开头段)
或者,
B1>A1;
B2>A2;
B3>A3;
开头段:引言(表明观点)
第二段:反对理由之一
第三段:反对理由之二
第四段:反对理由之三
结尾段:结论(呼应开头段)
再或者
A1>B1
A2>B2
B strength /A weakness
开头段:引言(表明观点)
第二段:赞同理由之一
第三段:赞同理由之二
第四段:虽然B strength(to teach specific knowledge也有优势),或者A weakness(只是帮助学生获得自信也有不足之处),但是总的来说,我认为A>B。
结尾段:结论(呼应开头段)
下面我们以这道题为例,具 体操 作一下:
1. For primary school students especially those who introverts, gaining self-confidence is more important than specific knowledge:(对于小学生来说,尤其是那些性格内向的小学生,建立自信比学习具体知识更重要):
第二段:理由一:enables them to obtain surprising achievements in game. The movie: Facing Giants. Without self-confidence, students wouldn’t have courage to face challenges in study.(建立自信可以帮助孩子在比赛中取得超常的成绩。如电影“面对巨人”。没有自信,学生就没有勇气克服学习中遇到的困难和挑战。如果建立自信,他/她也会更加努力地学习具体知识。)
第三段:理由二:better performance at school. A study by the University of Texas showed that students who received some expression of confidence in their ability—even while receiving criticism—performed better later on than those who were simply told to aim for higher standards.(在学校中获得更好的表现。得克萨斯大学的一项研究表明,如果学生能够得到对他们能力自信的表达,即便同时也收到了批评,他们的表现也会比那些只是被告知要定睛于更高标准的学生更优秀。)
第四段:虽然教授学生具体知识也非常重要,但是,从 教育 本身的目的来说,我个人认为建立自信更加重要。
托福写作:教你搞定“非主流”题型
三选一与问题分析类题型
【三选一】作为托福独立写作中的一类常见题,通常会基于某个话题给出三个选项,让童鞋们挑选其中一个认为最好的进行展开讨论,例如:
Which way do you think is the best for a student to make friends?
Join a sports team,participate in community activities or travel?
每当托福考生遇到这样的题目,内心一定是崩溃的,一方面因为我们写惯了二选一比较级类型题,思路是比较模式化的,然而对于三选一题目准备并不充分,导致考场思路严重短路。
【问题分析类】是比较罕见的一类题型,但考试碰见这类题型,还是比较蒙圈的,通常是给出一个问题,让童鞋们分析论证。
如何搞定写作难题?
三选一与问题分析类题目作为独立写作偏 议论文 的文体,考生需要在一定时间内自圆其说地表明自己的立场,并给出相应的论证说理和事实举例。
三选一,到底选哪个?
对于有“纠结症”的童鞋,三选一写作就有些困难了,三个选项看起来都好有道理的样子,如何才能表明自己的立场呢?这时候,你就需要知道考官想要你选哪个,去“迎合”考官的口味!

托福阅读篇:
托福考试改革之后,我们发现阅读部分仍然延续多套题拼盘的出题特点,套题数量有所增加,整体的难度上基本保持不变。文章题材上生物占比比较多,也有一些天文,艺术类文章。段落长度增加,加试文章依然较难,建议学生利用好TPO的题目去夯实自己的阅读基本功。很多文章是重复近几年考过的文章,特别是16-19年的题目,建议考生可以利用机经回忆了解考题背景知识。
例如:刚刚结束的9月21日的托福考试,阅读第一篇文章介绍了珊瑚礁的产生缘由,完全重复了2016年6月25日的托福阅读文章The Origin of Coral Reefs;
又如9月22日的托福考试中,其中有一篇文章介绍了欧洲的农业发展,重复了2017年12月9日的托福阅读文章,也与TPO23-2 Seventeenth-Century Dutch Agriculture讲解的内容非常类似。
所以我们预测,在接下来10月份的托福考试中,托福阅读部分的考察内容仍然以自然科学类(尤其是生物地质类)为主,穿插人文科学类(文学,历史类文章)和社会科学类(人类学等)。近期练习中,除了以TPO里面的相关文章精读分析之外,还建议考生能把最近出现的词汇题认真背诵,配合北美考试院内部历年真题文章汇总的精读练习,让自己的备考更加有针对性。

托福听力篇:
9月份考试听力部分均以多套套题组合的形式出现,且有加试。听力考试难度还是相对比较稳定的,但是存在其中一些话题的讲座专业性高,理解难度大。因此,从整体形式看,考试对考生不仅是基础,包括学科专业词汇的要求均有提高。
最近参加托福考试的学员,确实越来越多的人反映,说“托福听力难度提升了”,那这个感觉是如何产生的呢?
其实,托福听力的难度一直居高不下。与2017-2018年相比,2019年 的考试一次会有 3-4套题目,这四套题目中的难度不是完全平均的,而且总体的难度都不低,体现在三个方面:
1. 题材:比如学生场景词不足会觉得微生物题材比哺乳动物题材难
2. 出题层次不是按照常规套路:会有一些反规律或没有明显考点提示词的题目,对于考点预判制造很大难度,对于分层不熟练的同学经常感觉摸不到头绪;
3. 选项出的非常 “绕”:也就是混淆度很高,没有对于题目非常熟悉,没有经过严格培训,很容易落入出题人的圈套。
所以想要托福听力立于不败之地,还是要夯实基础,跟着优秀的老师,学习方法,加强精听训练,系统掌握才能立于不败之地。
在lecture的考察中,主题仍然以生物类和艺术类篇章为主,这两类主题的文章在9月份整个的托福听力考试中占比达到50%以上,所以这两类话题一定要作为我们接下来备考托福听力的重点。除此之外,同学们普遍反映比较难的一些篇章,例如天文类,考古类文章等,基本也都会出现在每次的托福考试当中,所以建议同学们在平时练习中针对这种学科的lecture进行分类专项练习。
综上所述,针对10月备考托福的学员来说,建议有两点:
1. 夯实基础,加强精听训练;
2. 针对较难学科(例如天文学,考古学等)进行专项训练。
托福口语篇:
自从8月10日托福考试改革以来,托福口语的难度总体变化不大,所以备考方法上对于同学们的影响也不大,近期独立题经常重复出的以前的题库,综合口语部分也基本都是常考话题,最经典的生物学和心理学,基本很少涉及很难的词汇和很偏僻的话题。

5. Do you agree or disagree that students would learn more if the teachers assign them with more schoolwork?
6. Some people like to purchase a product they like as soon as the product is available in the market, some however, prefer to wait until the price of the product becomes more accessible. Which way do you prefer?

托福写作篇:
在9月的托福考试独立写作中,我们最关注的的教育类话题占比很少,取而代之的是对于生活类,工作类以及政府环境类的考察。例如在刚刚结束的9月22日托福考试当中,独立写作题目考察了关于环境保护以及政府政策的旧题(重复2015年12月12日)
例:
Some companies provide important products or service, but also damage environment. Some people believe that government should require more penalty, higher tax and larger fine of these companies, while others believe there are better ways. Which do you prefer?
这道题可以从如何保护环境,尤其是减少工业污染角度思考。当然,提高惩罚和税收可以在某种程度上减少工业污染,但是,这不一定有效,因为企业可以有很多其他方法转移成本。此外,其他方法,比如开发新技术提高能源利用率,开发新能源,提高企业主保护环境的意识等也可以很好地解决这个问题,因此,我们可以写成如下三个主体段:
第一个主体段:这项政策看上去有效,但实际上没有效果。
第二个主体段:开发新技术更好。
第三个主体段:推动“环保标志”产品发展更好
而9月1日的托福写作独立题:Nowadays it is easier to maintain good health than it was in the past.有关生活类话题的考察,也是重复了2017年8月26日的托福考试独立写作题目。
这里我们特别重点关注一下9月21日的托福考试独立写作题目,Should spend money to build a garden for everyone in the town or a sports field for a high school?这个政府类话题分别在重复2013.12.20/ 2012.9.8/ 2011.3.11的托福考试中出现了3次,所以我们也不难发现,托福独立写作题目也会不断的出现旧题,这更加体现出了考前刷机经的重要性。

Mr. Smith is a lawyer, but Mr. Thompson is not my attorney.
counsel是指给当事人出主意并代当事人在法庭说话的法律顾问或辩护律师,在
法庭上,法官称呼参与审讯的律师也用counsel。
由于lawyer一词使用太多,加上西方社会对律师时有讥讽和诽闻,这个词多少带
有贬义,因此律师一般自称attorney。实际上这三个词经常可以互换。
avenge, revenge
avenge更多地含有“伸张正义”的意义
revenge侧重“报复”
用avenge时,主语往往不是受害者;受害者或具体事件作为avenge的宾语。
revenge,主语通常是受害者本人,因此后可接反身代词,
He revenged himself.
banquet, feast
从词源上看,banquet原意是bench(长凳),古时西方人同坐在长凳上吃喝就是
“宴会”了,出席者一般有一定的身份,因而banquet带有正式和庄重的意味。因此
banquet多用于宴请外国首脑或较正式的公务、商务宴请。
feast则用于娱乐性的宴请,或家宴。
base, basis, foundation
base做名词时意为“底部”、“底座”等,多用于具体事物。
basis一般用于抽象事物。
base也可用于抽象事物,如:the base of a theory(理论基础),这时它和
basis区别不大,然而basis在现代英语中用得越来越广泛。尤以on a .. basis为
甚:on a countract basis (合同制)foundation指具体事物时和base相似,但
一般指高大建筑物的基础;用于指抽象事物时与basis相似。无论指哪一种,
foundation 均给人以坚实和牢固的感觉。
bona fide, bona fides
bona fide: adv. adj. in good faith
bona-fide enquiries 诚意的询问
bona fides: n. good faith
His bona fides is beyond dou我是远方的一颗尘埃
capital ,capitol
capital: the seat of government 首都、首府
capitol: the buliding in which the government sits 政府大楼
the Capitol --- 美国国会大厦
chef , cook
chef 来自法语,似乎身价更高一些,多指大酒楼的厨师
cook 源于古英语,多指一般的厨师或炊事人员
childish , childlike
childish 孩子气的,指孩子不如人意的地方,如不懂事、幼稚、傻气等,带有
贬义
childlike 孩子般的,多指孩子讨人喜欢的方面,如天真、纯洁、真诚等
company , firm
根据英美企业法,firm只是指partnership(合伙公司)或unincorporated
business(非责任有限公司),
company则可指corporation(责任有限公司)。
complement, compliment
complement: v. (使)完成、补充、补足 n. 补充物
compliment v. n. 表扬、赞美
comprehend understand
understand是深度和广度都超过comprehend的“理解”
You may comprehend every word in this passage, but you may not
understand its overall meaning.
consistent ,persistent
consistent: adj. 前后一致的,始终如一的
persistent: adj. 坚持不懈的,锲而不舍的
constrain ,restrain
constrain: 强迫、迫使
restrain: 束缚、限制行动
记忆要诀:con-前缀一般都有“把。聚集/汇拢在一起”的意念,带有强制性
的感觉,因此constrain 是“强迫、迫使”re-前缀一般是指“向后的运动”
