跟讀內(nèi)容:今天跟讀的是C13 Test4 Par2的第24句-第36句
跟讀時(shí)間:早上8:30-10:00分
跟讀心得日記:
1、The hut has cooking facilities so you can make a hot meal in the evening and morning, but you need to take your own food.(C13 Test4 Part2第25句)
跟讀這句話你會發(fā)現(xiàn),在英語當(dāng)中meal與food其實(shí)還是有一定區(qū)別的,meal是指已經(jīng)烹飪好的,馬上就可以吃的食物,但是food卻不一定,food有時(shí)指的是食材,未加工的,比如你去超市買蔬菜水果,這些都是food,但不是meal。
2、The weather on Mount Frenner can be very stormy.(C13 Test4 Part2第26句)
stormy表示有暴風(fēng)雨的,但看到這個詞,我一下子想起來,好像很多與天氣相關(guān)的詞,后面加上y以后就可以做形容詞,來形容一種天氣狀態(tài),比如
rain —— rainy
wind——windy
snow ——snowy
cloud—— cloudy
sun—— sunny
3、Don't stress about getting back here to the centre in time to catch the airport bus - they'll probably not be running anyway.(C13 Test4 Part2第28句)
跟讀這句話,我突然發(fā)現(xiàn)stress作動詞,還可以表示焦慮不安的,類似于worry的意思
以后寫作同義替換stress about=worry about
4、We do have an emergency locator beacon in the hut, but only use that if it's a real emergency, like if someone's ill or injured.(C13 Test4 Part2第29句)
跟讀這句話,主要是學(xué)到一個有意思的單詞beacon。 好像在計(jì)算機(jī)和通信計(jì)算領(lǐng)域很常用。
Beacon是英語中的多義詞,作為名詞時(shí)指用于導(dǎo)航或警示的燈塔、燈標(biāo)或無線電信標(biāo),也可象征指引方向的標(biāo)志物;比如 a navigation beacon 航標(biāo)燈 a beacon of hope, 希望之燈
作為動詞意為“照亮”或“指引”。其發(fā)音為[?bi?k?n]
5、This trail's been designed to give first-timers an experience they'll enjoy regardless of their age or skill, but it's also ideal for experts to practise their technique. (C13 Test4 Part2第32句)
英語的組詞方式,有時(shí)是很直接的,比如這句話當(dāng)中用來描述第一次做什么事情的人,就是first-timer,類似的還有新來的人,new-comer。
另外這句話當(dāng)中還有一個重要的短語結(jié)構(gòu),regardless of 無論什么,不管什么,不在乎,不考慮等等意思,這是一個副詞短語,在句子中充當(dāng)狀語。
