考研英语词汇星火式巧记速记pdf
随着我国考研人数的逐年攀升，考研英语作为一门重要的科目，其词汇量的掌握程度直接影响到考生的成绩。
然而，传统的记忆方法往往让人感到枯燥无味，且效率低下。
为了提高考研英语词汇的学习效率，本文将介绍一种星火式巧记速记法，帮助考生在轻松愉快的氛围中迅速掌握英语词汇。
星火式巧记速记法是一种基于词汇之间关联性和人记忆特点的创新记忆方法。
首先，我们要了解词汇之间的联系。
在英语词汇中，很多单词都有相似的词根、词缀，通过寻找这些联系，可以将词汇进行有机地分组。
例如，词根“bio-”表示“生命”，与之相关的词汇有“biography”（传记）、“bionics”（仿生学）等。
其次，要根据人的记忆特点进行创造性记忆。
人们对于有故事情节、生动形象的事物更容易记住。
因此，在记忆词汇时，可以尝试将单词与生活中的实例、有趣的故事相结合。
例如，单词“glitch”（故障）可以联想到电子产品在使用过程中出现的故障，从而形象地记住这个单词。
接着，按照星火式巧记速记法进行词汇记忆的具体操作步骤。
第一步，寻找词汇间的联系，将词汇进行分组；第二步，创造性地记忆每个词汇，使之更具趣味性；第三步，定期复习，巩固记忆。
这一方法旨在提高记忆效率，增强学习兴趣，从而使考生在有限的时间内更好地掌握英语词汇。
总之，星火式巧记速记法作为一种创新的学习方法，有助于提高考研英语词汇的学习效果。
我们鼓励考生在备考过程中尝试这种方法，并不断调整、改进自己的学习策略，以期在考试中取得优异成绩。
同时，也要注重持续地复
习，巩固记忆，使所学知识得以长期保持。

星火英语15篇文章贯通四级词汇(完整版)A
A Question of RightsUnfortunately , a crime was about to be committed but at that moment Lesley was unaware of the impending(即将发生的,迫近的) event , which would affect her life so drastically(极端地,彻底地) for the next years .For the moment at least, her holiday at the cottage had been ideal. She had spent many idle hours relaxing on the deck , reading ,eating a sandwich when she was hungry and in the evening watching the sky turn from brilliant orange to peach and finally to pale purple , eventually the light becoming dim . It was about this time that the mist would begin to rise from the cool water hiding in the dense forest that hugged(环绕,拥抱) the shoreline(海岸线). Late evening dew(露水) glistened(闪耀,反光) on every bush and soon the loons' (潜鸟) call would resound (回响) across the water . She decided to take on last dip in the lake. As the cool night air touchedher arms. She gave a little shiver and decided it was time to move inside.This was to be her last evening alone as Jeff, her former mate,would be returning Zac to her early in the morning. As the case in many marriages these days, problems had arisen between Lesley and Jeff, but they did not extend to Zac. He was a good kid, just entering kindergarten. The couple had come to a mutual agreement, as dictated by the legal custody(监管,保管) agreement.It stated that each parent wouldshare Zac's care every second weekend and this had been her weekend to be alone.Jeff was an architect, with a high-profile reputation, who worked in downtown Toronto, a partner in a private corporation which mostly did consultant work for the university. Lesley’s company had been hired to advertise the new science complex in order to raise corporate(公司的) money for the proposed building. She liked her work and she harbored a secret ambition to manage her division of the company some day.After a whirlwind(旋风般的) courtship(求爱,热恋) and a fairytale wedding the couple had settled down to an urban lifestyle. However, after three years and one child the dreamlike marriage came smashing down. One disadvantage(不利条件) of being young and ambitious(有抱负的) was that both of them needed to devote untold hours to their busy schedules. As a result of these late hours, Lesley became suspicious(猜疑的) of Jeff’s after hours activities. She accused him of making her part of a love triangle. The whole miserable scene was to set the proceedings(过程,诉讼,诉讼程序) for an ugly(不愉快的) divorce in motion.Daydreaming(幻想,白日梦) about those earlier days would not help tonight. So with a shrug of her shoulders she tackled the advertising assignment she needed to complete. Tomorrow would be a busy day with Zac arriving home.The next day, as the morning wore on, Lesley became more and more agitated(烦躁), and her mood became apprehensive(忧虑的,不安的), when Jeff did not appear. Whennoon hour arrived and he still had not appeared, she started making some phone calls. None of their mutual friends had either seen or talked with Jeff that day. Until today, Jeff had always been very punctual about returning the boy at the appointed time. Lesley felt a knot forming in her stomach as a crazy thought persisted at the back of her mind. She was absolutely sure something was wrong.Jeff sat with his head bowed. He was undecided what to do. The domestic arrangement with his former wife was proving to be awkward. He was frustrated at being able to see his son only on weekends and felt he was always making concessions to accommodate(适应,迁就) Lesley’s work schedule. Every meeting was turning into a competition for the boy’s affection. His one desire was to take Zac away for good. The enormous decision to undertake this plan appeared to be presenting itself. Today he would depart for a conference in California. This appeared to be a marvelous opportunity to take the boy and leave the country for good. He bet that he could pack sufficient baggage into his vehicle and then disappears across the border, gaining entry the U.S.A. He gave little thought to whatsoever of the fact this act could lead to his conviction if he was tracked down by the cops.Meanwhile, for Lesley the nightmare continued to unfold(展现,显露) as the reality of the situation deepened. After 48 hours, the spokesman for the district police department assured her they would investigate Zac’s disappearance. Her faith that justice would be realized was faint. The shock of the past two days’ events made her realize that possibly her son would become one more statistic in the missing children file. The police completed a preliminary survey after asking hundreds of detailed(详细的) questions. Hot lines proved fruitless(无结果的).Meanwhile, over the next year there were countless visits and interviews at the police station and her home. The police appeared to be making no progress in tracking Zac’s whereabouts(行踪). As the days passed, Lesley’s frustration(挫败) mounted and she felt a sense of alarm. Eventually, she decided to take the initiative in continuing the search and she began to use well-established child find agencies. At times, boosted by hopes, she appeared to be on the right trail with a sense of disgust, but her hopes were dashed at the final moment. These obstacles hope. After Zac’s picture was circulated nationwide, telephone calls followed from strangers reporting sightings(被看见的人或事物) of a Zac look alike. Month by month her plan evolved into a campaign equal to a full-scale battle plan. She paid an exceedingly high fee for specialized help, such as the services of an attorney. Lesley became determined to target every major city where Jeff normally contracted business. As the months slopped by, Lesley’s exhaustion became noticeable in her eyes. Her cheeks became hollow pits. Most days she felt as though she did not have an ounce of energy left because proof of Zac’s existence seemed impossible to find.Another year passed and her hopes dimmed. Unexpectedly, late in August a promising lead brought her to Los Angeles.The interior of the bar was dark. Her quest to locate Jeff and Zac had taken two years. She had paid private investigators in American currency to help her locate her ex-husband. In her handbag she carried the necessary proof that would identify her to the authorities if she was successful in being able to bring Zac home again,to Canada. She had been impatient for this moment to arrive for so long and yet now she just wanted to secure her son with a minimum of fuss. Now, right on cue, a tall stranger slipped into the bar and sat down. One glimpse told her it was Jeff. He looked weary(疲劳的) and older but definitely familiar. A chill ran up her spine(脊椎,脊柱). Close to success, she refused to concede defeat. It was the time to remedy the enormous sadness. This time she wanted a guarantee of success. She stared straight ahead with a vacant look, trying to grasp the important moment. Vivid scenes, from the pass two years’ search, flashed(思想等的闪现) through her mind.The following day, happily for Lesley, the headline of the local paper read, “Father turns over child, Mother slams system.”Lesley and Zac’s subsequent life could now resume some form of normalcy(正常状态), however, the stress and strain of the past two years would always remain as a part of this renewed relationship in the memory.One ChanceThe tiny antique silver pin lay in my hand. I stared hard at the solemn face looking back at me from the oval frame. I was looking for some resemblance between my ancestor and myself. Her brow was broad and strong, the eyes kind and forgiving. She wore a stiff black bonnet(无边小圆软帽), a high white collar and a coarsely woven shawl(披肩) around her shoulders. In examining her face more closely, maybe I could identify some similarity around the eyes and the nose. An inner strength shone from the eyes of this diminutive lady who had helped lead her family from Ireland to the New World.The times, in Ireland during the 1770’s, were difficult for everyone. John and Lily Love and all the tenants(租地者,佃户) of the Barren’s Court Estate were suffering after terrible floods destroyed their crops. The landlord was generous in allowing the land rent to fall into arrears(拖欠,还款), due to the difficult times. However, as weather conditions continued to worsen, the little family became pessimistic and felt desperate about the direction of their lives. Nearly every family at this time had at least one member of their family who had left for the New World. The ugly face of famine was lurking(潜藏,潜伏) everywhere. It was not possible with one acre of arable(可耕作的) land to make a living.Late one night, after the children were in bed, John and Lily discussed the possibility of making a reservation aboard a sailing ship bound for America. John had noticed a poster in the town square, that posted by a ship’s owner trying to recruit people for his ship. John knew that conditions aboard ship would not be ideal for Lily, her new infant son and the two elder boys; however, she acknowledged that settling in America would be the only way for the family to gain some independence and to earn a living. More importantly, it was rumored that land was free in the new country. Lily gave her consent to leave.In port, the sailing ship, Hannah, under the command of Captain Mitchell lay at anchor. The adventure of crossing the Atlantic Ocean bound for Philadelphia would take two to three months. Passengers were assured there would be the best provisions and plenty of barrels of fresh water. Storms could be fierce and living conditions below deck would be primitive. John joined the long queue and eventually after a lengthy wait, reached the revenue table. He affixed(签署名字) his signature to the contract promising to pay five pounds per person for berths(卧铺) aboard ship. The clerk returned the receipt to John indicating that the sum of money had been paid.Once under sail the three hundred passengers found themselves crowded intomiserable conditions. The smell of so many people crowded together was offensive. The breadth of the vessel was narrow and the headroom(净空,头上空间) below deck minimal.As the tiny craft sailed out of Lough Foyle, and entered the Atlantic Ocean, it started to roll ominously(不吉利的) and those aboard wondered if they would survive the long voyage ahead or be swallowed up by the enormous waves. Seasickness(晕船) was everywhere and people had no appetite. The food, instead of being of high quality as promised, was too often rotten and the water was brackish(有咸味的).Eventually, the winds lessened and the Captain was able to set his sights towards America and become ably steering the ship on an even course(航线). Eight weeks later, plus on day, the Hannah made landfall(着陆) and the Love family disembarked(离船上岸) in America and became American newest immigrants. Gazing at the mainland after so many days of sailing was indeed a glorious sight. The difficult days aboard ship seemed worthwhile. Porters hurried along the docks pushing baggage. Little girls with ribbons in their hair scanned the ship’s decks hoping to get a first glimpse of their father arriving. It seemed to Lily that it took forever to register and to pass through immigration.John said that he would go ahead to scout out some land in the far west of the state. He would push on to the frontier with a bunch of other Irish chaps. Lily and the children could follow more slowly, harnessing the horse and cart to convey their scanty(贫乏的,少的) possessions. The stuff in the cart would include a kettle, dishes, blankets, a chair, a bucket and an axe.There was a perception by the government at this time that the feisty(易怒的,好斗的) Irish would resist any hostile natives refusing to retreat and thus maintaining the western boundary. The Irish, too, were pleased to settle as far away from the government as possible. Instead of purchasing land, they would “squat(占据)” on the property erecting only a temporary, humble shelter to stave off(遮挡) the weather. Once their families arrived, they would inspire the men to build proper cabins. Neither fancy nor elegant, these log structures would be their first real homes. Property boundaries at this time were not marked out with iron rods or stakes in a standard fashion, but rather designated(标明,标出) by natural objects such as rocks, trees and creeks. Confusion and disputes must often have followed later, when these survey points disappeared.After exploring the area around Shirley’s burg, John and his sons rode over Sandy Ridge to survey the property below Black Log Mountain. It was here in a long narrow valley they decided to settle. The valley became known then, and is still called Love’s valley today.At the time, drums were used to forewarn(预先警告) that the natives were going to capture the forts(城堡), which guarded the western frontier. Daily life in this new land, for the early settlers, was harsh and difficult. First they needed to tame the land, chopping down trees, in order to be able to plant crops. At times they needed to defend their land and be wary(机警的) of attacks from wild animals, such as wolves and bears. Mosquito bites caused severe reactions of swelling and itchiness(痒痒). Once the work was done, neighbors would gather for an occasional social function. The children would play for hours chasing butterflies and looking for birds’ nests. The boys would catch frogs and then tease(戏弄) the girls with them. There would be a delicious picnic lunch spread on the grass. John asked Lily to bring some freshly squeezed lemon juice for the picnic. He found the sour taste of lemonade(柠檬汽水) was refreshing on a hot summer’s day. Some of the men would have a drink of homemade(自制的) in the moonshine before striking up a tune on thefiddle(小提琴). Square dancing was popular among the young people and the young lads would leap up to dance with the eligible(中意的,合格的) young ladies. Rivals for a young lady’s hand in marriage would tend to compete to walk her home at the end of an evening. The romantic times were few and contrasted sharply with the stern reality of everyday life.Neighbors were also few and Lily found she was very lonely. She looked forward to the occasional visits of the minister, Robert Ayers, who was a Methodist circuit rider. Meetings would be held in fields or small barns, three to four times a year. At other times neighbor women from over the mountain would meet to make quilts(被子), blankets and cushions and to gossip(聊天) about their respective lives. They would share their secret fears regarding their new lives, their hopes for their children’s future and enjoy each other’s companionship(友谊,伴侣关系).Twenty years slipped by and John Love died at the early age of 47. Several years later, son James and his family, as well as widow Lily, his Mother, made the decision to leave Pennsylvania and settle in Canada. They made the arduous(困难的,艰巨的) trek(旅行) over Indian trails, crossing the Niagara River to settle in what we now call Ontario.I am a Canadian. Having traced my roots and followed in the footsteps of these early settlers, I feel a sense of gratitude to my ancestors who faced extreme difficulties and severe hardship to settle in a new land. Liberty, then and in today’s world, is a priceless inheritance(遗产).Once more, I glanced at the silver pin before returning it to the velvet(丝绒的) box. Once again, I questioned, “What did I inherit from my Love ancestors?”I realize the answer has been revealed while writing this story. I have determination, strength, loyalty and a love of adventure. This is my inheritance.A Man and His CastleLa Cuesta Encantada (The Enchanted[使用魔法迷惑] Castle) is one of the most remarkable displays of power and passion in the world. This marvelous tourist site now known as Hearst San Simeon State Historical Monument is better known as Hearst Castle. It is located six hours south of San Francisco and five hours north of Los Angeles. Sheltered by the mountains in northern San Luis Obispo County, the complex of 165rooms and 127 acres of gardens, terraces(露台), pools, fountains and footpaths draws approximately 800,000 visitors annually. To understand the castle, you have to understand the man who built it, William Randolph Hearst. And to understand the man, you have to understand the land upon which he built his dream.Born on April 29, 1863, William Randolph Hearst was the only child of Gorge Hearst and his wife, Phoebe. George was a multimillionaire(千万富翁) who amassed(积聚) his fortune through partnerships(合作关系) in three of the ever largest mining discoveries of copper, silver, and gold ores. In 1865, George began to accumulate parcels of land by obtaining 46,000 acres of the Piedra Blanco Ranch on California’s Central Coast. There he began a successful cattle ranch(大农场), eventually enlarging it to 250,000 acres stretching 50 miles along the coast.William loved the ranch where he spent his summer vacations as a youngster and a youth, playing in the rugged canyons(峡谷), descending the cliffs and camping in colorful Arab-style tents in the mountains with his family.Phoebe was delighted in exposing her darling child to the beauties and wonders of the world and spared no expense doing so. During one of their adventures, an18-month tour of the historic palaces and castles of Europe, William began a lifelong love of collecting. With his first acquisitions, German picture books, he embarked(着手,开始工作) on a 78-year session of excessive spending. He confessed to a love of the finer things in life and, as he had a bottomless(不见底的) purse, would never deny himself anything he wanted.In 1887, while William was at Harvard University, he decided to take over the small newspaper, the San Francisco Examiner, which his father had accepted as payment for a gambling(赌博) debt several years earlier. George would have preferred that his son be involved in the mining and ranching interests, but William declined this offer and was given ownership of the Examiner in March 1887. He was determined to increase the popularity(普遍,流行) of the paper and acquire the best equipment and writers available.William’s resolve to succeed inspired him to publish juicy(有趣的) tales of vice and stories full of drama and motivation(积极性,动机). In 1895, he purchased the New York Morning Journal, putting him in direct competition with the distinguished(杰出的) Joseph Pulitzer and a circulation(传播,发行) war began.Both the Hearst and Pulitzer newspapers started to include sensational(耸人听闻的) stories about the Cuban Insurrection(起义). The stories greatly exaggerated claims of Spanish troops placing Cubans in concentration camps, forcing them to live under substandard conditions, disease-ridden, starving and dying. This style of reporting became known as “Yellow Journalism(新闻事件)”. The newspapers were transformed as the scope of the news broadened and became less conservative. Circulation soared as the public could get enough of the banner headlines and abundant illustrations. At the time, many people believed William actually might have initiated(开始,发动) the Spanish-American War to encourage sales. According to one report, when one of his correspondents, Frederick Remington, requested to return from Havana, William responded that if Remington would furnish the pictures, William would furnish the war. He was once quoted in an editorial as saying, “Make the news thorough Print all the news. Condense it if necessary. Frequently it is better when intelligently(聪明的) condensed.”Another classic example of his influence occurred when; merely months after he advocated political assassination(暗杀) in an editorial, American President McKinley was assassinated.As an intelligent and dynamic business man, William generated increased readership by employing some of the most talented(天才的) writers in the United States, recruiting figures from the literary community, like Mark Twain and Stephen Crane, and the previously mentioned illustrator, Frederick Remington. He also showed his initiative when he chartered a yacht(快艇), equipped it as a miniature(小型的) newspaper headquarters, anchored off the coast of Cuba, and led his army of reporters into the field.William’s interests led him to follow in his father’s footsteps, inspiring him to enter into politics. He was elected to the U.S. Congress as a senator representing the State of New York in 1902 and served until 1907. He was a candidate for the office of mayor of New York City and governor of New York State, but failed in both of these attempts.While honeymooning in Europe after his marriage to Millicent Wilson in 1903, he expanded his publishing empire with Motor Magazine. The Hearst Corporation grew to comprise a total of 12 newspapers, including the Examiner, and 25 magazines, including Cosmopolitan. Not satisfied with just his publishing enterprises, he expanded his business operations into radio, and later produced movie newsreels(新闻纪录片). (To Be Continued)This influential media giant was not without his faults. His prejudices were common knowledge. His career was blemished(玷污) by his offensive remarks about Spaniards, Japanese, Filipinos, and Russians. He printed lies, forged documents, falsified(歪曲) stories of violence, wrote provocative editorials, and published sensational cartoons and photographs to support his opinions.William hated minorities. He took advantage of every opportunity to heighten racial tensions. His real motive for his hatred of Mexicans may have been the loss of 800,000 acres of prime timber land to the Mexican outlaw(逃犯), Pancho Villa. His papers described them as marijuana-smoking, job-stealing, lazy, wicked, and violent degenerates(堕落). Some suggest he saw the Mexicans as a threat to his empire.During this period, William met and fell in love with a young actress, Marion Davies. Millicent, his wife and the mother of his five sons, including a set of twins, refused to dissolve the marriage, which obliged William to “live in sin” with the woman whom the tour guides refer to as his “friend” or “companion”.With the death of his mother in 1919, William inherited the beloved quarter-million-acre ranch. At first, he planned to build modest ranch house on his favorite campsite(野营的) but as he became more involved in the project, his vision of a monument to display his collections gained momentum(动力). Working closely with family architect, Julia Morgan, William created a glorious and extraordinary castle-like structure, blending Spanish, European, and Californian architectural styles. Huge warehouses(仓库) were built in San Simeon to store the shiploads of splendid antiques, including entire carved ceilings and walls hung with enormous tapestries(挂毯). They could be installed in the completed rooms. Landscaping integrated exotic(外来的,奇异的) plants, hedges, and trees with native flora(植物群落). As William was in his 60’s, he had the insight to know he couldn’t wait for them to grow, but he was optimistic. He ordered tons of fertile topsoil to cover the grounds to a depth of five feet and full-grown specimens of the plants were trucked up the mountain for planting.With thousands of acres of land covered with grassland, trees, natural ponds, and man-made reservoirs available for use, William stocked the estate with herds of rare oxen and deer, and flocks of sheep and lambs. These animals flourished as they were allowed to wander freely. Larger, more dangerous beasts, including tigers, ostriches, buffalo, yaks, emus, kangaroos, llamas, zebras and giraffes were enclosed in the largest private zoo in the world.The “complex” was ready for occupancy(占有) in 1927, but additions continued until 1947. Eventually it comprised the main house and three cottages, all of which are furnished with a variety of valuable antiques. Even the lavatories were specially equipped. William’s favorite room was said to be the library with its collections of more than 5,000 books, ancient Greek vases, and an antique Spanish ceiling suspended(悬挂的) by cables so it will sway in the event of an earthquake (all the antique furnishings and treasures are anchored as a precaution as this is earthquake country).In the ‘20s, ‘30s, and ‘40s, William loved part-time at the estate with his mistress, Marion Davies. They entertained to an excessive extent. To be invited to the castle was a privilege. Movie stars, politicians, businessmen, and even royalty(皇室成员) were frequent guests. Many of these guests, including a British lord, Sir Charles Kingsford-Smith, Amelia Ear hart, and Charles Lindbergh, flew to the ranch, landing on the private(私人的) airstrip(飞机跑道).Life on the “hill” was never dull. The visitors stayed in the main house or the cottages, depending on their prominence(重要) or their intimacy(亲密) with thefamily and were free to roam(漫游) the grounds, go riding on their choice of horses on the property. Company was expected, however, to meet in the main drawing room at 7:30 p.m. sharp, principally (主要地) to amuse their host. Dinner was a formal affair beginning at 9:00 p.m. this meal was held in the immense dining room, the walls of which are lined with priceless panels from ancient European cathedrals (大教堂). Following dinner, movies were shown in the private theater, starting at 11:00.There were, however, three rules guests had to follow: do not get drunk; do not swear or tell off-color jokes; sleep in separate bedrooms if an unmarried couple. Food was not allowed in the rooms. If you wanted to eat, you could visit the kitchen…if you could find it.Although William was closely involved in all aspects of the construction and decoration of the mansion(大厦,宅邸), he continued his business and social interest. No stranger to scandal, in November 1924, he found himself in the topic of headlines. The most enduring rumor was that, during a party on his yacht, he had found Marion kissing Charlie Chaplin. In a fit of jealousy he took a shot at Chaplin, missed, and accidentally his Thomas Ince, killing him. However, even though the morning papers carried the story, the evening paper and successive editions printed that Ince had died of acute indigestion(消化不良).In 1945, William initiated the Hearst Foundation and created the California Charities Foundation in 1948 (the name was changed to the William Randolph Hearst Foundation soon after his death in 1951). The Great Depression took its toll on even the wealthiest and William Randolph Hearst was no exception. His fantastically(荒诞的) decadent lifestyle couldn’t last forever, and gradually his finances began to suffer, beginning the next chapter in the saga(传奇) of excesses. He came close to being bankrupt but Marion rescued him from debt, unselfishly selling her jewels and some other property to raise over a million dollars.In 1947, due to his poor health, he was forced to move permanently to Beverly Hills. Marion looked after him during this time, seldom leaving his side. When he died in 1951 at the age of 88, she was shunned(避开) by his family and forbidden to attend his funeral.The castle, its furnishings, the artworks in the gallery, and 127 acres of land were given to the state of California in 1957. Since that time, the California Department of Parks and Recreation has kept the castle open to tourists.Today a visit to the estate begins near the site of the old airstrip. Guests are transported to the top of the hill via bus. One can still see the signs giving wandering animals the “right-of-way” on the lanes. Deer, cattle, and sheep often halt the buses’ progress up or down the mountain as they meander(漫游) to the salt licks.Depending on the tour one chooses, guides escort(护送,陪同) the public through a variety of rooms, gardens, cottages, and pools. The luxury of a bygone(过去的) era is evident at every turn. From the moment you arrive at the stairway to the Neptune Pool until you bid farewell to your guides at the magnificent, golden and blue Roman Pool, you are reminded that a man had a dream. He had power and influence. Furthermore, he was prosperous enough to achieve his objectives and implement his dream.Yip Sang, a Chinese-CanadianThe British and Chinese signed the Treaty of Nanking in 1842, each providing their respective subjects with the right to benefit from full security and protection。

It seemed there was chaos in the place. The only ones standing silent were him and me. For a moment, our eyes met and gazed at each other. Did he know me? How could he? The sound of the approaching alarms broke our gaze and the big guy calmly and loudly instructed everybody to lie on the floor. I did as he bade, but taking as many steps forward as I dared before lying down. I was no more than five yards from him.
"Take me", I said, standing up and making another vital step forward. "Leave the kid and take me". Everybody looked at me, some of them taking me for a suicidal (自杀的) person and thought it was a movie. This is really happening, their eyes said to me, for God’s sake,to sit down before he would kill you.

The test makers have carefully picked out around 4,000 words that show up again and again on the exam. They call these the "core vocabulary" words. If you can commit these key words to memory, you'll be able to understand the reading passages and questions way better.Now, 4,000 words sounds like a ton, I know. But don't freak out! There are some awesome tricks to breaking it down into manageable chunks. My favorite method is using those "40 Word Lists" that group the vocab into bite-sized lists of 40 wordseach. That brings the total down to just 100 lists, which is so much easier to wrap your head around.The coolest part is, you only need to do one list per day to get through all 4,000 core words in less than 4 months! How's that for taking a huge task and making it totally doable? Just 40 words a day - you can definitely handle that.But simply reading through a list of definitions won't really make the words stick in your brain for the long haul. That's where the fun part comes in - making memorable associations!For each new word, take a second to create a vivid picture in your mind that connects the definition to something silly, weird or just plain outrageous. The funnier and more absurd, the better! Like for the word "abate" which means to become less intense. You could picture a bright red hot air balloon slowly having the air let out and sagging down - "abating" in intensity as it shrivels up. Weird visual images are 10x stickier for your memory than just reading "abate - to diminish in force or intensity."You can take it a step further and make up goofy poems, songs, jokes or storylines for each new vocabulary word. I like to pretend my dog Rufus is having conversations with the words - he mumbles "hello my perfidious friend" to the word perfidious(meaning untrustworthing/disloyal) in a gruff doggy voice. So silly, but man does it get those words locked into my brain!Another big tip is to USE the new words you're learning in your daily life and conversations. If you just passively read them in lists, they'll have a hard time transitioning from short-term into long-term memory. But if you actively APPLY each vocab word - even in simple sentences to your parents or by describing the sagacious squirrel (wise/showing good judgment) in your backyard - boom! You're coding that word into yourwalking-around knowledge.Here's an example schedule for tackling one 40-word list per day:In the morning: Read through the list of 40 new words and their definitions a few times so you have a basic familiarity.Throughout the day: Work on creating those wild visual associations and funny memory tricks for 10 words from the list. Space it out in free moments, don't try to do them all at once!In the evening: Come up with simple example sentences using 10 more words from the list. Describe something fun you did that day using the new vocab terms!Repeat the next day with the remaining 20 words. In just 2 days, you've cemented an entire list of 40 high-level vocab words into your long-term memory - wahoo!The last big tip? Make it a habit to review older word lists occasionally so you keep all those hard-earned vocab gains fresh. Set a calendar reminder to cycle through previous lists from every 2 weeks ago, 4 weeks ago, 3 months ago and so on. That way, you never lose what you've learned.So there you have it - a simple game plan for learning 4,000 essential words over just a few months without going crazy. Break it into fun, bite-sized chunks and get creative in how you commit each word to long-term memory. Before you know it, you'll be a vocab superhero smashing that grad school test!If you put in the consistent effort from day one, I know you can absolutely make it happen. Those core vocabulary words will be your new best friends in no time! Let me know if you have any other questions along the way. Now get out there and start building that brilliant word bank!篇2Mastering Core Vocab for Grad School: A Kid's GuideHey there, fellow kiddos! Do you dream of becoming a brilliant scientist, an awesome author, or maybe even the next President? Well, to make those big dreams come true, you'll need to go to graduate school one day.

I've got a super easy tip that will help you slay the vocabulary portion of these entrance exams. Are you ready? Let's master those core vocabulary words together!You might be wondering - what makes a word "core" vocabulary? Well, these are the words that just keep popping up over and over again in all sorts of books, articles, and test materials. They are the building blocks you need to truly understand what you're reading and communicate your brilliant ideas clearly.So how can memorizing a bunch of fancy vocabulary words possibly be fun for a kid? That's the best part - we're going to make it into an awesome adventure! Get ready to join me as we explore the magical realms of core vocab mastery.Chapter 1: The Beasts of BehaviorLet's start by taming some ferocious vocabulary beasts related to how people and animals act. Words like "amiable" (friendly), "belligerent" (aggressive), and "reticent" (shy). We can come up with crazy stories about these words to help us remember their meanings!Chapter 2: Stellar StorytellingEvery great story needs spectacular vocabulary to bring it to life. Power words like "ephemeral" (lasting a very short time), "plausible" (likely to be true), and "pragmatic" (focusing on reality) will level-up your tales.Chapter 3: Just Judge ItSomeday you might become a judge, or at least want to judge that epic baking competition reality show.

It's me, your pal Jamie. Today, I want to share something super cool with you – a fun way to learn new English words! You know how us kids love stories, right? Well, get ready because we're going to explore 40 short stories that will help us conquer those tricky words we need for the big graduate school exams!Story 1: The Ambitious AntOnce upon a time, there was an ant who had a burning ambition to climb the tallest blade of grass in the meadow.Despite its minuscule size, the ant persevered relentlessly until it reached the summit, basking in the glory of its achievement.Story 2: The Eccentric ElephantIn the heart of the jungle lived an eccentric elephant named Ellie. She had a peculiar habit of wearing mismatched socks on her massive feet, causing the other animals to stare in bewilderment. But Ellie didn't mind; she embraced her eccentricity with pride.Story 3: The Diligent DolphinDeep in the vast ocean, a diligent dolphin named Dory swam tirelessly, always striving to be punctual for her underwater ballet classes. Her dedication and perseverance inspire篇4Learn Big Words with Fun Short Stories!Hi there! My name is Jamie and I'm going to tell you all about how I learned tons of big vocabulary words to get ready for the really important English tests for graduate school. I used to think those huge word lists were sooo boring and hard to memorize. But then my teacher showed me a much better way -reading short stories that use those words in a natural and fun way!Instead of just staring at definitions, I got to see the words come alive through cool characters and exciting plots. By the time I was done with all 40 stories, I felt like a vocabulary master! I'm going to share some of my favorites with you so you can learn words the easy and enjoyable way too.Story #1 - The Ebullient ElephantThis one was about an elephant named Ellie who was always ebullient, which means cheerful and full of energy. One day, Ellie was so ebullient that she did jumping jacks until her legs got wobbly! Her friends thought she was hilarious. This story taught me ebullient in a really memorable way.Story #2 - The Quintessential QueenHere, a queen wanted to throw the quintessential royal party, meaning the perfect example or most typical kind of party for a queen. She made sure to have all the quintessential things like fancy food, music, and guests dripping in jewels. Visualizing that over-the-top quintessential queenly party stuck that word in my brain!Story #3 - The Cataclysmic Crayon CrisisThis dramatic tale was about a bunch of crayons that caused a totally cataclysmic event - a violent and disastrous upheaval. Basically, they got into a crazy fight and their brilliant colors exploded everywhere, staining the classroom in a rainbow catastrophe! After that visual chaos, I'll never forget cataclysmic.Those are just a few examples of the fun and creative ways these stories taught me core vocab words. There were 37 more that covered other tough ones like auspicious, parsimonious, ephemeral, ubiquitous, and myriad.Some of the stories were funny, some were more thoughtful, some had wacky plots with talking animals. But they all did an amazing job of bringing those big vocabulary words to life in contexts that stuck in my memory way better than just reading definitions.If you want to build your word power for those big English tests without getting bored out of your mind, I highly recommend tracking down this collection of 40 short readings. They made prepping for vocabulary feel like a total breeze instead of a chore. Plus, I got to enjoy cool little stories along the way!I'm feeling so confident about knocking those English vocabulary sections out of the park. Just don't tell my teacher Icalled the stories "fun" - I have a cool reputation to maintain! But between you and me, they were an awesome way to learn.篇5Mastering Core English Vocabulary Through 40 Fun StoriesHi there! My name is Timmy and I'm going to share with you an awesome way to learn lots of really important English words. You know how when you're reading books or trying to understand teachers, there are always bunches of big fancy words you don't know? Well, I found a super cool trick to master those words so you can become a vocabulary ninja!It's called the "40 Short Passages" method. Sounds kind of boring, right? But trust me, it's actually really fun. Basically, you read 40 short little stories and each story is packed with some of the most essential vocabulary words for tests like the GRE, TOEFL, and all those grown-up exams. By reading the stories, the words get burned into your brain without you even trying hard!Let me give you an example from one of the passages about a really smart professor named Dr. Svensson:"The professor was renowned for his erudite lectures that elucidated even the most abstruse concepts. His propensity forrigorous analysis rendered his theories impervious to facile critiques..."See what I mean? Words like "erudite", "elucidated", "abstruse", "propensity", "rigorous", "impervious", and "facile" are all super useful to know, but they can be real tongue-twisters at first. But when you see them IN a story about a professor being really smart and giving amazing lectures, it's way easier to figure out what they mean through context. The stories make the words feel alive instead of just being boring definitions!Another thing I love about these passages is that they cover a huge range of topics - from science and history to poetry and philosophy. So you're not just memorizing lists of words, but actually learning ABOUT really fascinating ideas and events while building your vocabulary. It's like Getting two brain-boosters for the price of one!And the stories are pretty short - usually just a paragraph or two each. So you can read one per day without getting bored or feeling overwhelmed. I read one during breakfast, one during my free period at school, maybe one before bed. It's a fun, bite-sized way to constantly be expanding your word knowledge.Plus, all the super-hard words have defInitions and sample sentences provided right there on the same page. So if aparticular word or phrase still has you stumped after reading the story, you can just peek down below for help. No more getting stuck or having to lug around a gigantic dictionary everywhere!I've only been doing the 40 Short Passages for a couple months, but I can already tell my English vocabulary has gotten enormously stronger. Whenever we read books in class, I find myself recognizing and understanding way more of those fancy vocabulary terms that used to go completely over my head. My grades on vocab quizzes have gone way up too!And you know what the best part is? I'm not just memorizing words for tests and then forgetting them. By reading them over and over across 40 fun little stories, the words are really sticking in my brain for good. I find myself using lots of my new vocab words when I'm writing stories, talking to my parents, even chatting with friends. Before you know it, I'll be sounding like a real erudite elocutionist!So if you're working towards any kind of big English exam like the GRE, TOEFL, IELTS, or whatever - or if you just want to sound like a super-intelligent professor yourself - I highly recommend trying out the 40 Short Passages method. It's been a total game-changer for me and my vocabulary has grown enormously without me even really trying that hard. Pretty soonyou'll be the one making up funny new words that make everyone go "huh??" Trust me, it's an awesome skill to have!篇6Learning Big Words for the Really Important TestHi there! My name is Emily and I'm in 5th grade. I really love reading and writing, and I have a big dream - I want to go to a super cool university when I grow up! But first, I have to take this huge test called the graduate entrance exam. It's really hard and has a ton of big vocabulary words I need to know. Luckily, my teacher gave me a great book with 40 short stories to help me learn the core words for the test. I'm going to share a bit about how I'm using the book. Let me know if any of the words are too big for you and I'll explain them!The first story was about a curious little girl who embarked on an adventure through the forest. I didn't know what embarked meant at first, but the story helped me figure it out - it means to start a journey. The girl was so inquisitive, always asking questions about the plants and animals. Inquisitive means really curious and wanting to learn. She discovered a small creek and was absolutely captivated by the way the water sparkled.Captivated means like hypnotized, totally fascinated by something.Those are just a few examples of how the stories introduce new vocabulary words in context, so you can use the story to understand the meaning. The book also has definitions and practice exercises at the end of each story. After reading that first tale, I made flashcards for embarked, inquisitive, and captivated, and practiced using them in sentences.Another story was about two utopian societies on different planets. Utopian means like a perfect world with no problems. The planets looked idyllic at first, meaning like a perfect beautiful place. But then a clash erupted between them over their values and beliefs. A clash is like a battle or war, and erupted means it started suddenly like a volcano! This tale taught me those new words plus reiterate, which means to repeat or say again.Some of the stories are silly and fun, while others are more serious. There was one about a physicist, which is a science expert who studies physics and the laws of nature. She made a groundbreaking discovery that was paradigm-shifting. Groundbreaking means really new and innovative, and paradigm-shifting means it completely changed the way people think about that subject. Wild, right?I'm having so much fun reading these stories and learning all the great new vocabulary. My favorites are probably the ones with fantasy elements - like mythical creatures, magical spells, and epic heroes going on quests. Those always have the coolest words! I feel like each story expands my lexicon, which is just a fancy way to say vocabulary. Heehee!I still have a bunch more stories to read, but I'm already feeling way more confident about understanding hard words for that big test. My teacher says if I can master this core vocabulary from the 40 stories, I'll be really prepared. She's so nurturing and wants to facilitate my learning. Facilitate means to help make something easier. Aww, I just love her!Well, that's a little peek into how I've been using these awesome short stories to get ready for the vocabulary on the graduate exam. I'm working super diligently each day to augment my word knowledge. Augment means to increase or make bigger. With perseverance and hard work, I know my lexicon and comprehension skills will be enhanced by the time test day rolls around! Wish me luck, and let me know if any of those vocabulary words gave you trouble. I'm always happy to elucidate them further! What's elucidate, you ask? You'll have to wait for the next story to find out!。
