动词及短语(重点):

improve:改善,增进;真题高频词汇;

be aware of sth:意识到某事

struggle of sb:某人的努力和挣扎;

struggle with sb:与某人斗争

leave sb/sth better off:使某人或某事变得更好;leave在真题中多次被用到表示使怎么,让怎么样,相当于make/let;

awake-awoke-awoken:注意下该词(苏醒)的过去式和过去分词形式;

awake sb from sth:把某人从某事中唤醒出来;是某人从...中醒来;

put a end to sth=end sth:结束某事;

spend(动词,花费,花销)-spending(动名词,在这里用做名词表示花销,开销)

spread(动词,传播,延展)-spreading(现在分词,用作形容表示加宽的)

我们可以发现,真题中有很多动词变为现在分词或过去分词形式来用作形容词,或名词;大家平时学习中可以注意下;

reck(动词,表示顾虑,介意;)-reckless(形容词,不顾后果,不节制的)

 

 

其他相关词汇:

silver lining:一线希望;

A no harder than B: A不比B更努力;B最努力;

disaster:灾难,灾祸;注意与damage损害,损坏相结合记忆(2011-2)

in some ways:在某些方面,在某种程度上;

material:材料,原料(2011text3)-materialistic物质主义的,金钱至上的;

finance(名词,金融)-financial(形容词,经济上的,金融的)-financially(副词,经济上地) 该组词汇也是真题高频词汇

prudent:谨慎的,节俭的;注意与economical节约的,节俭的相结合记忆;

perhaps -probably -possibly -presumably真题中表示可能,大概义项的词汇基本上就是这些;

at the very least =at least至少

fever(dream):狂热的梦;have a fever发烧

easy rich(es):暴富;我们可以看到真题中有非常多的词所使用的语境与我们之前所理解的该词应该所在的语境还是有所区别的,比如easy这个词与rich相配,用来表示富得很容易--暴富;
