考研英语阅读理解高频词汇精华总结(直接背诵版)

考研英语阅读理解高频词汇精华总结(直接背诵版) Part1背诵500个考过二十次以上词汇 above/beyond:介词,后面接抽象而不是具体名词时表示“无法做到”,例如: “above comprehension”的意思是“无法理解”。 in the absence of something:“缺少,没有”,用于替代“in short of”或者“be lacking in”。 be absorbed in something:“专心从事”。 abuse:用在物品词后面表示“过量使用”,用在有生命的事物后面则表示“虐待”。have access to something:这个短语最常用的意思是“to have something that you can use”,就是“能够用到”,当然,要根据它后面接的单词来判断其中文含义, 比如“have access to town”表示“有道路通往市区”,“have access to the teacher”则是“有条件向老师请教”,而“have access to the Internet”则表示“有上网条件”。 accessible/available:形容词,中文的含义同上。 by accident:介词词组,属于副词用法,修饰动作,意思是“偶然”。accommodate:英文解释为“to accept someone's opinions and try to do what they want,especially when their opinions or needs are different from yours”或者“to get used to a new situation or to make yourself do this”,因此中文的意思是“接受;适应”。 account:名词,“解释,解说,叙述”。 account for:本身是“解释说明”的含义,但在使用时可以翻译成“是…的原因”。此外,在数字概念上表示“占…份额,比重”。 acknowledge:这个词有两个常用含义,“向某个人表示感谢”或“承认”。acquire:这个词的中文非常灵活,通常由后面跟随的名词决定,如“acquire bad habits”就是“养成坏习惯”的含义。在商业用语中,该词则表示“吞并”。其名词形式acquisition也有这个含义。 action:在军事用语中可以表示“战斗”。 in action:表示“正在起作用”。 adapt:动词,在科技用语中表示“(将某个领域的研究成果)应用于(另一领域)”。
