上次考GRE已经是2006 十月的事了 那时还没这个版
惨不忍睹的Verbal成绩也让我申请到一家没听过学校的PhD w/TA ship
糊里糊涂念了後大叹不如归去 随後展开一段odyssey in the US
最後总算换了学校安定下来
---------------以上是题外话-------------------------
总觉得自己单字量远远落後身边的美国同学 放暑假开始背单字
把老方以前寄的不择手段背GRE单字印出来背
(GRE真是恶梦阿 我不想再考了)
跟我以前背红宝书一样鬼打墙 念了一个礼拜还没走出A
最近逛书店买了这本 Fiske WordPower by Edward B. Fiske
http://www.amazon.com/Fiske-WordPower-Edward/dp/1402206534
感觉编排得很有系统 依照同义字 主题 字源 字形几个原则分门别类
一共有100章 举例而言
Chapter 1 :Short word 三个字母组成的字群
ape dun fop gad hex ken poox sow vex vie
Chapter 2 : Putting together/ Taking apart 有关拆合的字群
amalgamation eclectic motley asunder diaspora cleave disseminate
Chapter 3: Down from Mount Olympus 希腊罗马神话来源的字群
aphrodisiac chthonic hector hermetic junoesque mercurial
mnemonic muse saturine
此外 每个单字都有深入的解释和例句
若有两个以上不同解释或用法 会分别附上对应的例句
例如
CLEAVE Interestingly, this verb has two opposite meanings. On the one
hand, it means ' to split' or 'to cut' or ' to penetrate.' The noun form
is 'cleft,' and the past tense is ' clove.' On the other hand, it means '
to stick to' or ' to be faithful to. ' In this case, the past tense is '
cleaved.'
Iago put a cleft in Othello's relationship with Desdemona by convincing
the Jealous Moor that she was engaging in an extramarital affair.
As the hurricane grew more forceful blowing over trees and knocking
down power lines, the chidren in the tall apartment building cleaved
to their mother and carried out in error.
书的封面写可增进 SAT ACT的字汇量 仅一千个单字对GRE而显然不足
但是它的同类字群编排方式有助於增进记忆的效率
