第四節(jié):四•五•六單詞全面奉獻
    【瘋狂短評】
    很多英語學習者都抱怨背英語單詞是何其的枯燥和困難,背過的單詞能記住的不到五分之一。其實我們背單詞的目的是運用,所以一定不能脫離句子、脫離語言環(huán)境去背單詞。英語中有不少使用頻繁而廣泛的核心單詞,它們通常不止一種詞義,則更需要我們結合語境,熟悉詞義,牢記用法,反復操練句子來記憶。這樣不但能夠記住這個單詞,并且讓你在不知不覺中學會熟練的使用這個單詞,收到事半功倍的效果。
    從開始,我們向大家重點介紹四、五和六單詞各一個,每個單詞配以10個以上的例句幫助記憶。并且我們還為大家額外奉獻二十個實用單詞。相信大家的詞匯量一定會在短期內(nèi)有很大的提高。
    【Kim’s Note】There are some words that just give an instant lift to your English level. The best way to improve your vocabulary is to incorporate challenging words into daily conversation. This way is far more effective than just memorizing lifeless words on a page. We selected the following words just for you because they are not only challenging, but useful.

    2. What makes you suppose I’m against it?
    (你根據(jù)什么認為我反對這件事?)

    (咱們?nèi)ビ斡景桑。?BR>    10. Am I supposed to clean all the rooms or just this one?
    (我是應該打掃所有的房間,還是只打掃這一間?)

    12. You’re not supposed to play football in the street.
    (在大街上是不準踢足球的。)
    13. Suppose he were to see us!

    卷入;牽連(常指于罪行中)
