閑時記點單詞

 

  一次去書店的時候看到有一本書很好，就買了回來。但是讀的斷斷續續。這本書很好，主要是告訴人們如何去擴大詞匯量。作者是通過小故事講述後，然後再列上單詞，並且把生詞逐一的解釋一下。這本書的名字叫［NO FEAR VOCABULARY]

  HOW TO TALK ABOUT FAMILY MEMBERS

"  The alarm clock went off at 6:45, the same as it does every weekday. I rolled over and stared at the ceiling for a few moments as the clock kept blaring.

  So this was what eighteen felt like.

  I wiped the crud from my eyes and slammed the snooze button before flopping back into bed. In a few minutes I'd have to get up and get ready for school, but for right now I just wanted to lie in bed and wallow for a bit. Alex Lee, eighteen -year-old. It sounded strange, and I wasn't exactly sure how I felt about it.

  The phone rang just then. Good old Janet, I thought. Wanted to be the first to wish me a happy birthday. I fumbled around for the handset,which had somehow gotten buried under a pile of laundry wadded up at the foot of my bed. 

  "Morning, darling," I mumbled, sleepily.

  "Good morning,Lee," the voice crackled, underlining my last name gooily. " I hear it's your birthday."...

 

   like everyone else, I have a lot of attributes that make me who I am.

  attribute: (n): a quality,property, or characteristic of somebody or something.

  idiosyncrasy(n): an attribute that makes you different from other people.

  acerbic:(adj):bitter or sharp in tone,taste,or manner

some close synonyms for acerbic are sardonic (adj):disdainfully or ironically mocking, and mordant(adj):sharply sarcastic or bitingly critical.

  總之，感覺可以通過讀短篇文章，然後聯係生詞去學習。。。
