每一次的进步,都是来自点点滴滴的积累

revolve v. /rɪ'vɒlv/

原意:围绕…旋转

The earth revolves around the sun.

那么哪个天体绕着地球转呢?对喽,

The moon and thousands of other satellites revolve around the earth. 

这个单词在口语中怎么用呢?比如天忙着工作和学习的我们!到底多忙?

My whole world revolves around my work! 

I feel like my life revolves around school, I have missed out on exploring the world by being stuck in a classroom or home to study.

顺便一提,剑15的听力配对题中也出现了该单词,一起看看原文~

Only children have had a really bad press- a lot of studies have branded them as loners who think the world revolve around them because they have never had to fight for their parents’ attention.

问:“The people who think the world revolve around them”这个什么性格呢?  

A: introverted   

B: caring    

C: selfish 

原题答案:C: Selfish. 当然这只是对独生子的一种刻板印象, 不可取!

Getaway n. /'getəweɪ/

Get away 短语大家都熟悉,是离开,逃离的意思。

e.g. The robbers got away from the police. 劫匪在警察的眼皮底下逃脱。

看看下面这句话呢?

e.g. I'm taking some time off because I really need to get away for a few days. 这里get away 特指外出度假,或者休假。

那么 getaway 作为名词就不难理解了,

It is a place where people go for a short vacation/ It is a short holiday somewhere. 可以说一个假日休闲地或者是一个短假。

比如:

Taihu Lake is a popular weekend getaway. 

We have booked a romantic getaway to the seaside.

Butterfly n. /'bʌtəflaɪ/

原意:蝴蝶

1. The butterfly emerged from the pupa(蛹).

补充短语:

I have butterflies in my stomach. 表示心理七上八下。

可以用来描述参加比赛的一些经历。

Even after 15 years of performing in front of an audience I still gets butterflies before a show.

Social butterfly! 交际花!社牛!
