一个人知道自己为什么而活, 就可以忍受任何一种生活 - 尼采
英语学习的历程, 长路漫漫, 路途艰辛, 如人饮水, 冷暖自知.
而 词汇量 的日积月累, 可以说, 占据了 80% 以上的精力.
单词, 记多了, 长时间不温习, 不单是遗忘,
很多时候, 它们彼此, 会在你的脑袋中 "打架",
像是 形近词的 "张冠李戴", 众多近义词的 "傻傻分不清楚",
这些明摆着的问题, 犹如拦路虎一样,
英语学习者, 不好好花些精力, 去分辨和加深记忆, 是绝对不行的!
在此, 开辟一系列 "单词辨析" 文章, 帮助大家各个击破!
此为第五篇, 讲述的是 英语中 以 "-umble", "-rive", "-ink" 结尾 的 词汇,
大家不要一下子眼睛看花了,
一时记不住所有单词, 也没什么关系, 一次记一点, 慢慢来!
也不要畏难,
英语的学习之路, 肯定不容易, 更别提, 进阶到精通了.
像这样去整理学习单词, 算是一种比较高效的方法了.
